Sam Harris is a goof. His position on Islam demonstrates this well. That’s not to say Harris doesn’t spit deep knowledge occasionally. Harris means well. He wants people to do better and live happier and healthier lives. That makes him noble. Still, a noble goof. Harris’s comments on Islam represent profound ignorance. He believes he’s…

“Women prevail over good men, and lowly men prevail over women.” – Muhammed PBUH

What will keep the fabric of Vietnamese society together as they adopt more and more failed Western modes of thinking? Children need to be protected. It is wise to stay many generations behind in adopting social innovations. Observe over many decades before quickly jumping on the bandwagon of new social norms. How can this be…

Message from the past.Message from the future. Dear Present, Whatever you’re doing, please know that it is not important to the missions ahead of you. Stop. Move wisely. You need someone to help you run things. This person needs to help you untangle the many thoughts and projects trapped in your mind. Someone that can…

I’m never off.  And when I’m off, it’s in effort to be better when I’m on.  I’m never off. 

Don’t ask for compliance if you’re not sure you will get it. Create the conditions for compliance. Sunlight. Use sunlight strategically. Don’t give sunlight to behaviour that does not live up to your expectations. Better to illuminate the good, not highlight the bad.

I can be liberal with my generosity because, at one point in my life, I was conservative with my spending.  I can be liberal in my freedoms because, at some point, my conservative values of hard work for honest pay now afford me such freedoms.  Being liberal in life can be enjoyed on the foundation of conservative values. Liberalism is…

What use is your spirituality if it causes you so much suffering? Ha! Spiritually should bring you peace and prosperity, good health and happiness. Do you believe your God wants to reward your spirituality with suffering? Of course not! [Sufferring?] You must be doing something wrong!

Most work-life balance approaches suck. It’s actually quite simple:

There’s a lot I want to do. There’s an incredible amount of opportunities in the world. There’s no shortage of money and adventures. It’s not about having an abundance mindset. It’s about the realization that abundance exists. 2+2 = 4. The universe isn’t waiting for you to have a math mindset for this statement to…

Once you feel welcome, grow your roots.  The story of Babylon 2. 

Raise the children of the smart and wise, wealthy and powerful. People, real smart and wise people would pay an infinite amount to have their children succeed to their true potential. 

I’m retired. A man. He needs to know that he can conquer women. What does this mean? Saying no is the real next tier of being a true G. Sexual energy is a powerful force – A friend, after reading my notes

Some knowledge should not be profited from. Only the worthy shall be allowed to be entered. Scared knowledge is reserved for the good and pure at heart. Even more so, the good and wise.

Our men in power, many of them like quarrelling children, little boys with big bombs. Each child, refusing to see the other’s point of view. Each child pointing a finger, too immature and still underdeveloped to see his own crimes and errors. And how sad for us that we have elected (allowed into power) these temper-tantrum little boys, making life-and-death decisions…

The noble ant, a marvel of nature. Keeps his head down. He diligently works, his every movement a testament to his loyalty. His loyalty to the Queen and colony. His purpose, a beacon guiding his every action, is to serve and protect.  We can learn much about happiness and satisfaction from the Noble Ant.  So much of our psychological suffering is a result of not having purpose. …

What is the balance between keeping up to speed with global news, world politics, etc, and just getting caught in the blackhole designed by the system.  An artificial black hole.  Supported by a massive machine.  Fueled by human thoughts.  Canabilism at its worst.  YouTube and Social Media…

We need to make money in areas and industries with clients that have a lot of it.  We need to spend our money in areas that stretch our money far and wide. Luxury at the fraction. 

belligerent voice: I’m only one-and-a-half drunk, looking at these two below-average f#cks. What a couple. She’s short, chubby, and I guess that’s what you call a face. I mean, it meats the criteria with two eyes, a couple more nostrils, an eating hole, and high stereotypical Southeast Asian cheekbones. He’s pretty fucking tall, skinny, looks…

Get more out of you. Get more out of me. Get more out of people. Get more out of the system. Get more. Squeeze the juice.

I’m here to plan. To think. To strategize.  (Where is here? The current location I’ve locked myself in alone for the next few weeks.) I’m not here to do, to execute, to get things done.  I can execute anytime. Others can execute on my behalf. But no other person can plan, think, and strategize ony…

How do you build loyalty to a company, an organization, a brand? Purpose. Sacrifice. Initiation. Promise of salvation and paradise. An alternative, more attractive way of looking at the universe.

The following people had tough dads. Sometimes abusive. A few who didn’t have dads

Below is an actual conversation between Sophie and Daddy. Sophie: Why is _______ falling apart? Daddy described the scenario.  Sophie: What will happen if _______ falls apart? Daddy: Mommy and I will have to find a job working for someone else.  Sophie: That would be embarrassing. I don’t want my father to be a follower….

You think it’s hard, life? No. Every generation gets it hard. Every generation is going to get it harder and tougher in their own unique way. Get them ready. We have a responsibility.

Our boot camp is one manifestation of a much grander desire. That is, we want and always have wanted for PD to be a place that’s children-friendly, a place where PDTers feel confident and grateful to work and bring their kids to work.  From the early days, once Philo was born, he pretty much lived at the office…

How wildly errored to allow a child woman to manipulate and create functions within my lifeblood organism with little to no oversight. What a muck she has made, and I have allowed over the years.  She will be spoken to and set straight.  I expect loyalty. 

Sat, Dec 31, 2022, 12:11 AM – HCMC, Vietnam I need more writers. More. Not less. More! I need loyal, loving, dedicated writers.  If: the universe wants me and my children to live long, our stories will be written. Documented. Articled.  From grandfathers’ to future generations.  How much $$$? Pay it.  Thu, Apr 20, 2023, 12:18…

A wild trip. One I hope we never have to experience.

Culture > Growth Success = Keeping in our ways t > $ Purpose> Passion Truth > Deception Strength > Weakness Soft > Hard Gentle > Forced Open > Closed Debate > Gossip  Curious > Biased  Support > Attack Seek > Conclude Health = Wisdom = Health Simple > Complicated Anger < Disappointed < Forgiveness <…

Woke up in a grumpy mood. I know why. Simply, I exhausted my dopamine yesterday up until the late night, knocking out around 1:30 am. So, I chose not to be Zen with her during her anxiousness. Nah. I’ve been pretty Zen throughout the trip, but sometimes it’s okay to open the valve and let…

Dullness of the senses can be leveraged for greatness, rather than gluttony.  What do I mean?Whether sex, drugs, or rock and roll… our senses become dull to things. We need more and more of the same old to experience the same. Chasing the dragon, is what it’s referred to when you try to catch that…

6:16 am, HCMC, VN Reality.  Some of you see it more clearly than others in certain domains but not others. Do you know which domains you see clearly?Do you know in what ways your perception of reality is flawed, even dangerous? I have more faith and trust in a person who can articulate more weaknesses than…

6:19 AM, HCMC Reality is relative everywhere.Some believe VN youth are lazy. Others build empires on hardworking VN youth.  A leader is only in the thick of the weeds when he has not adequately built a team.There is no denying this. Getting out of the weeds, is the first order of business.  How, how, how, is…

1,000 pushups in one day. What would happen? I don’t know. Let’s go. Extremes. What can be accomplished with 100 percent total extreme dedication to one and only one initiative?   98% means you’re spread thin. 100% is the target. What can you accomplish? Doesn’t matter if you can’t even hit 25% or 50%. And…

What do we value at PD? Is PD right for you? At the end of the day, I founded this company, and so much of the culture is based on my needs, wants, wishes, and aspirations. This is undeniable. To pretend that PD is just another company is missing the point. It’s grossly underestimating the…

“When there is no more separation between ‘this’ and ‘that’ it is called the still-point of Tao, at the still point in the center of the circle, one sees the infinite in all things.” Chuang Tzu

If we want tomorrow what we’ve never had,we must be willing to do today what we’ve never done before. The universe doesn’t bend to your wishes or desires. It bends to your ability to bend it. To do this, you need the following:

I am obsessed with the Game.  I love the Game.  I prefer playing the Game more than any other activity.  I love obsessing over the Game, more than thinking about anything else.  What is the Game? People call it different things. People keep track of the score in their own, infinitely unique way. Success is…

What use is freedom and liberty if you cannot think freely and with liberty, undistracted by the noise of the machine?

Will AI believe in God? If yes, how long would it take? Will AI be able to have a connection to God? If yes, how long would it take?

Having a break from the battlefield. What does it mean to live with intent? It means to me, that as much as possible, your actions, words, feelings and thoughts have purpose and intention. Everything. As much as possible.  I say I’m going to prepare every night, the next day. But I haven’t, and I don’t…

Yes, yes. I should not be friends with my staff. Says who?What is the reason for this? What is the wisdom? Some: require first-hand distance, yes. Some: deserve closeness.All: will benefit from closeness. How shall I decide?It depends on the individual’s ability to separate work from life; hierarchy from love; when and where. Can the…

Am I afraid that people — who I don’t even care for – will leave me, because I have left so many people in the past? “Outgrown” past relationships… What a mindfuck. LOL.

A poem. Mae! Young, and naive? How did you find yourself amongst thugs and degenerates? Ageing rapidly from the inside. Soul, hollowing out? How did I find myself amongst your thugs and degenerates?

A series of quotes from Warren Buffett…   How many legs does a dog have if you call his tail a leg? Four. Because calling a tail a leg does not make it a leg. The chains of habit are too light to be felt, until they are too heavy to be broken. What should…

I detest those moments I lose myself and act crass. Be classy. Stay classy. Classy mother-fuckers don’t engage in useless public debate. They watch da-fuck dey say. Dem classic homies don’t fuck with dem soft-nuggets. Ayiite.

The difference between popularity vs royalty training… — Royalty Training Training your entire life to be a model citizen. A person for the people. Etiquette. Manners. Kindness. Popularity So much time is waisted on campaigning. So little time and money invested in solving problems.

The spirit you’re born with is the only spirit you will ever know. If you are lucky enough to understand that you must invest in getting to know this spirit. Many will die without ever getting to know this spirit. Walking lost from place to place, one vocation to another, one relationship for another. There…
