Slumbering flaws

You can always evolve and if you are smart enough, you do evolve yourself. But if you don’t truly stabilize it you might fall back. This is something that many had talked to me about. Read this previous article on slickr-flikr for some great insight.

When you figure out the great things to do and add them to your lifestyle, you become awesome. But the source might be still left and it might wake up if your mentality gets shaken. Even if you delete a file, it can still be recovered. You have to fill it completely in zeroes. Forcing yourself to do something is filling the space with random number. It’s not effective.

                                               

Trace the fundamental source of all problems and look at it in a visionary eye. You’ll always find a certain inclination as the source. If you don’t, then you haven’t looked deep enough. Then vomit that source. Look at it in every direction. Take fear of failure for an example. It happens because of your inclination to certain results/goal/ideals or something similar. Take out that inclination/bond and explore it in all ways. Take your time and make sure that you fully understand all aspects.

Then you have 3 question types. First question its permanence. All thoughts change. Nothing is static. Those goal or ideals aren’t eternal. Those feelings only last when we think (delude) that they exist. When you realize this, you’ll stop repairing your withering inclinations.

Then ask yourself whether it’s bringing you happiness or joy. Is it exciting to live with bonds, fears, self-humiliation and sufferings? Look deeper-go deeper. Keep asking yourself this question until you get sick of your bondage.

Then ask whether those inclinations are your identity. Do your fears tell who you are? Does your money tell who you are? Do your failures tell who you are? Do your inclinations tell you who you are? Are you anything other than who you think you are? Then why stick with those things.

This realization will actually make all sources of your sufferings and flaws non-existent. All your flaws will be gone like a candle that was blown. When you realize a mirage for what it is, the existence of the mirage doesn’t affect you at all. Nothing would happen to you because of the mirage. You wouldn’t even have to try to figure out whether it’s right to cling onto it or not. You’d simply be free and enlightened.

The Actual Risk

Tell me what's risky. Going to school and learn well and going to college to get a good degree to get a good job and have a stable life with a proper income. This is the greatest risk you can ever take. But many thinks the opposite. That's a dumb delusion that happens due to ignorance. Let me tell you why. There is inflation and there are two types of people: the ones who keep getting richer and the ones who getting poorer. Or simply you can say the rich and the poor. It's a spiral. You get what you are accustomed to due to a complicated process.

I'll skip the complicated process since this isn't a book. Now let's look at the history. Check on the inflation and check on the increasing of salaries. See anything....? The increase of the salary is not in par with the inflation. The freedom of the budget is getting more and more restricted. The technological evolution gives the illusion of an increased comfort. But if you look at what's right in front of your very eyes you'll see that a stable job = getting poorer day by day.

You'll have to work harder on saving money and you'll get yourself into a conservation mood. When your body gets less food, it adapts by managing with less colorizes. This is what the people with a job are doing. They are survivors. They are the deer. They are the cattle. At best they are the dogs who are well fed and taken care of because someone is getting a great use out of his/her life. Don't be someone's bitch unless you are doing it for hobby. You can be a hunter. But there are better places. You can be a chief; a god; a legend. 

First read this post. Now do the thinking. You have to let go of all paths. You have to create your own path in your own ways. That's because everyone has their own compatible ways. If you find something much similar to what you are compatible with; then learn form it. You don't have to do all the learning. There are many people who have gone through experiences on their own. Learn from their existing experiences. Turn to the legends. See the paths they have taken. Analyze them. Read their successes and read read their failures. Analyze them and bring out the great truths behind their marvelous achievements. Most importantly, find your own methods to add into the list.

You'll discover the rest of the story on your own. You should be able to do since only smart and wise people stay with slickr-flikr. So I'll go on with disillusioning and warnings. You always hear about the people who deviated from the "path" and ended up being homeless and etc. The society says that they sucked at their lives because they didn't stick with the so called non-risky path. That's BULLSHIT!!! It happens due to lack of tactics.

All the legends had a strategy. They had their tactics. They thought about the next few decades of their lives since they were small kids and sticked with the plan. Learn about criminology. First they abhor crime. When they stick with crime they become accustomed to it and become naturally and effortlessly good at it. They become duck to water in crime. When you stick with your decisions your reality adapts. All the things you desire will be naturally achieved. Remember what I said about morning decisions. You don't have to micromanage everything. Just give a single command and be cool. Everything else will be naturally taken care of.

The ones who doesn't have the tactics and other related stuff, f@<ks themselves up. They don't initiate anything and ends up being total failures. What you need is good strategies and tactics. I'm not talking about plans. I'm talking about the plan without a plan.  

Don't aim at the middle class. Give it up. Stick to your intuition and tactics. If you don't stick to them you'll be f@<ked. If you utilize everything properly, your life will rock. You'll have the things that you dream of. you'll have your wish list completed. You wouldn't be really taking any risk if you have your tactics and flexibility. Don't trap yourself in a cell which keeps getting smaller and smaller. Get out of the cell and enjoy the prospers which are getting larger and larger. It's your time to give up the risky stability and skyrocket into awesomeness. Take your decision and live i awesomeness like a god.

Morning decisions

Every morning you can decide how you start the day. So what are you gonna do after getting out of the bed. I mean things apart from brushing your teeth and etc. are you gonna plan your day? Why are you gonna get your daily motivation? Are you gonna be ambitious? Why? Why can’t you just chill out. It’s not a difficult thing to do, right? No….wrong. simply being cool in the morning is one of the most difficult things to do in the world as well as one of the greatest things to do as a human.

                                      Every morning people have plans. They have dreams to achieve. So what? Do you need to constantly feed you conscious that you are gonna be successful and live a happy life. If you constantly remind yourself that you need to succeed and shake the world, it means you are not all that successful or happy. If you are just calm and cool all 24/7, it’s a reminder for you conscious that all is fine and everything is going totally awesome. Don’t waste your time thinking about the things you need to achieve. This will actually slow you down. Just chill. That’s all you’ve got to do.

                                                          If you wanna live healthy don’t feed your brain some thoughts of a great immune system and a healthy life. If you want success in your business, don’t go tuning your brain to make it give you the best decisions and answers. It’s retarded (from a relative POV). If you are calm and chilling all reality will be calm and chilling. You don’t have to micromanage everything in your life. Think you have a huge business empire. Now tell me what’s easier and more efficient: is it handling everything about you empire and taking care of all the important decisions or take this single decision of hiring a  your empire a great CEO?

                                                                                      The physical conditions can affect your psychological state if you let it. But you can decide to take over and turn the tables. Your cool mindset will manage everything. Your body’s functions will change to give you the best health and you wouldn’t be putting any effort to make it happen. You don’t manage your heart beat or breathing. But it all happens perfectly and effortlessly. That’s what does gonna happen when you are just chilling. But I’m talking about really being cool. I’m not talking about some bullshit like forcing yourself into being cool and intentionally making yourself not interact with all the crap around you. This effort will ruin everything.

                             When you get up in the morning don’t attach yourself into goals and ambitions. Just be cool. Just relax and observe. You’ll see the context well and you’ll know the best possible ways to do anything you want. All you have to do is cause the effects after understanding the context. Don’t micromanage your life. Decide it to be cool and relaxing and your body and consciousness will make it happen with zero or minimum effort.

Critical Dash-1

It’s time to have a critical look at the things. First let’s look at the Eiffel tower before talking about student grades. Yeah, there is a great connection between them. Everything is in a mesh. There is always a connection. Just don’t separate yourself from the world/ reality. That is a lesson from Quantum Mechanics.

·    It was designed at home, on the kitchen table...

·    by someone who didn't get their name on it

·    Never been done before, not guaranteed to get built or to work

·    It was criticized by hundreds of leading intellectuals and cultural experts

·    It wasn't supposed to last very long

·    It's designed to be an icon, it's not an accident

·    People flock to it because it's famous

·    You can sketch a recognizable version of it on a napkin

That’s a nice bunch of interesting and useful stuff to know about the Eiffel tower. This is a pretty good daily dose for someone who wants to awaken himself/ herself to the fullest. But I’m about pushing the limits of full potential and transcending the transcendence itself. So it’s time to get critical. So it’s time for student grade facts.

New studies finds that students who are rated as more attractive get better grades and are more likely to go to college. The study followed about 9,000 US adolescents from high school in the 1990s, through until they were in their 30s 

They found that students who were rated as more attractive were also given higher grades by their teachers. But students only needed to be somewhat above average to see the advantage. The super-good-looking had no advantage over those who were above average.

This may be because being more attractive had a negative side–it was associated with more partying, dating and general social distractions.

Interestingly, being average in appearance produced no benefits in GPA scores against those with below average looks.

 “…visible characteristics like attractiveness, as opposed to averageness, gave students greater entrée and assuredness in initial interactions and greater forgiveness for foibles and missteps in later interactions, something particularly valuable in the large impersonal world of high school. In this context, average-looking youth had relatively few chances for standing out or opportunities to gain status in a competitive playing field.” 

                                                These 2 things are very much related to each other. If you want take some time to bake your noodle and try to figure out how and why.

                                                                   The key point in both of these topics is the discussion on remarkability. Eiffel tower is highly popular because of its remarkability. Eiffel tower is purple cow. So many people visit it and treasure it. Attractive students got higher grades because of their remarkability. They were different from the average. Therefore they got treated different from average.

                             Sometimes great changes can be done using very small things. What kind of a student would think of improving his/her looks in order to get better grade? What kind of a person would design something so ridiculous like Eiffel tower? It’s either a really smart one or one who is too dumb to understand the society’s boundaries and definitions.

PEOPLE WILL CRITICIZE YOU FOR YOUR WAYS. BUT WHEN YOU TAKE A WHOLE NEW APPRAOCH TOWARDS YOUR WORK, YOU CAN CREATE WONDERS. IT’S ALL ABOUT STAYING AHEAD OF THE CURVE AND HAVING THE RIGHT EQUILIBRIUM. YES EQUILIBRIUM. IF THE EIFEL TOWER WAS TOO MUCH OF A TWISTED DESIGN, SOME PEOPLE WOULD HAVE SCARED AWAY. IF YOU ARE ALL TOO GOODLOOKIN YOU’LL REDUCE SOME OF THE FACTORS YOU HAVE GAINED THROUGH LOOKS.

                                                This equilibrium is very contextual. It depends on your audience. Depending on your audience, change the settings and take a different approach. If you are a lawyer, don’t dress like a supermodel. Dress sexy and you’ll have impressive results. If you make something for Halloween, make sure kids get scared away. Then you’ll be an urban legend among kids.

The Plan without a Plan

Then what is the plan… it’s called you; sometimes you+ your partners. That’s the best plan and also the easiest plan in application as a well as the rarest plan to be created. Making you “the plan” takes a lot of psycho-engineering. It’s not something that anyone can do. But the ones who can do it can reach the top with a lot of ease. When you are the plan, no event can shake you. When you don’t have a rigid plan/schedule to be followed, you’ll be planning everything on the spot on the go. Thus the plan will be more and more contextual and will also save a lot of time for you while making you ridiculously flexible.

                                                “Being the plan” is time consuming almost never ending process. “Being the plan” is bit like being a strategy player. Think about StarCraft or Civilization games. Try playing something like DotA 2. If that is too much, try some mini games from here. When you keep playing the game you become extra good at it. Trying to memorize all the tips and tricks and 200-300 page guides is a major pain and takes a lot of effort. Sometimes you can’t even think of something to do. If you play the game to learn and evolve from and through the game instead of playing like a mechanical idiot, you’ll get a hang of the huge load of the stuff all over the screen. The more you play the better you become.

                                                                                                If I summarize the idea, all I have to say is play some strategy games for a while. Observe and dissect that experience. Then use the same core principles in everyday planning. Simply put: stop planning and get ready to handle anything and out everything on your desired track. That’s all about it. This paragraph is all you need. Btu I can give some more insight.

                                                            A plan is preparing for something that isn’t even in the present. The universe is enwrapped in variables. Sure you can set your alarm to wake you up at A.M. but think about the number of things that could happen to your phone in the next 12 hours. What would you do then? Being the plan is like programing yourself to get up at the desired time. Even if your plan (if you had one) get screwed, you are totally fine. Think about all the time and effort this will save. You can put all the effort of planning into some other thing. Your efficiency will go above 100% cuz you are transcending the human ways and capacity for doing certain things.

                                                                                    What you need to know is how each element affects and interacts with each other. Everything is connected. So be connected. Don’t get into a cell created in your mind and spend all the time planning. Be like joker. Think about how he deals with everything in Dark Knight. That’s what being the plan means. You get to stay cool and you get to keep the upper hand over the rest of the society.

Be in the moment and learn from very moment. Don’t get so serious about having a proper plan. You don’t need a one. All you need is yourself with lots of templates. Think of LEGO pieces. When you get into playing with them you get to know how they produce their effects. Then you can make marvelous creations without any planning. You just start building and after some time you have something totally awesome and avant-garde.

Get to know the little parts. Keep the objective in mind. Start handling everything in small contextual levels and engineer what you want like Nano-engineers. Nanotech says: building the big thing sucks. Build the small ones to end up as the big thing. Then you’ll get something perfectly refined.

SPEEDRun 8

Before reading ask yourself why you are reading this. Not just this; ask it whenever you read anything. Not just for reading; ask “why” when you watch a movie, play a game, engage in any kind of activity. Always ask yourself why you are doing whatever you are doing.

                                      Why should you engage in any kind of activity? Should you do something just to pass time? Should you do something just for some short-lived fun? Should you do something just because everyone else is doing it? Here is a small advice: being the part of the crowd will take away everything from you.

                                                                   Now let me come at the question like this: Would you do something to be evolved? Would you do something to transcend who you are? Would you do something in order to stop being a petty Human 1.0? If you don’t answer “yes”, you shouldn’t be even on this blog.

                                                          Engage in activities that transform your life. Do the things that expand the horizons of your understanding. Knowing about the random stuff going on in the world or knowing about the celebrities or agony’s of some people in a corner of the earth isn’t gonna help you achieve anything. So find things that take you to the next level and keep doing them. Sometimes I have thought that it’s too difficult to watch hardcore psychological anime/movies every single time. But when you take a decision and stick to it, it’s a piece of cake. Just start living a life where you only do things that evolve who you are. Play games that make you ask question and explore your own mind with new experiences. Watch movies with great remarkability. Instead of watching some dumb chitchat on TV or YouTube, watch an interview with a successful personality or watch a documentary. 

SPEEDRun 6

Your limits and restrictions can end up getting really useful if you start using them properly. You don’t have to embrace the limits. It’s not a good thing to do. But you can’t always deal with the limits you have. When you have those limits you can improve this thing called maximum efficiency. When faced with restrictions, many scums try to deal with what they’ve got and be satisfied with what they have. That’s pathetic. Instead try to get what you want with the resources you have. You may not get the exact awesome output you desire. But you’ll end up with something close to what you desire. Most importantly you’ll know to get the best out of every single thing and when you have enough resources, you’ll be doing hell a lot more than what you should be able to accomplish.

                                                Think about Japanese CGI movies. Try Appleseed movies, Resident Evil movies and such. They are done with like 10% the budget of a Hollywood animated movie. Many times I feel those Japanese movies to be a lot better than the Hollywood movies. If you carefully observe some of those movies, you’ll notice what they have done. They are pretty nifty tricks and they work like a charm when elevating the standards of the movie. After that you’ll feel like many Hollywood movies are just showing off their budget instead of using them properly.

                   When you face restrictions re-do your plans. Focus on your efficiency. Find the best ways to do things. I have improved a lot of skills by using a 512kbps net connection. I’m more efficient than anybody I know when it comes to using internet resources. When you face with you limits; don’t embrace them. Never even think about managing with what you have and as something pragmatic. Wishing for a miracle to happen is dumb and retarded. Being realistic is planning for a miracle. f@<k the stats. Let you work do all the f@<king. Always look for ways to get what you want done with what you have got. That’s what they did in the Moonjob. 

SPEEDRun 5

I tried doing some SPEEDRuns and kept ending up with long articles. I just keep finding more and more to write. What would happen if you keep reading something while thinking about it? You may discover many things that aren’t even on the article. That’s why you really need to bake your noodle about everything. I wrote this post on marketing after seeing a post on Seth’s blog. The post just said “Marketing used to be what you say. But now marketing is what you do.”

                                                        I saw way beyond the meaning of those words. I felt that that tiny post isn’t a proper insight about marketing. So I made this post. I made it up because I saw beyond those 2 little sentences. If you look at everything in a visionary way you’ll come up with great revelation just by seeing a simple sentence or even a word or symbol. If you think about that Seth’s post, you may come up with a lot of great insight. Understanding is not enough. First you have to comprehend, but you also have to bake the noodle about what you understand.

                                        I do provide a lot of insight. But that’s not all of it. Sometimes I just write a few words as a topic and end up with a 500++ words post effortlessly. All you have to do is getting into the habit of thinking about what you get to realize. That’s the main point about being visionary. You become visionary by thinking about something. It’s about understanding a hell a lot more that what it actually is. Sometimes you may know about an idea even better than the creators of the idea. After that point, you own the idea. Bill Gates was the first to come up with the tablet PC. But Steve Jobs is the one who really owned it. I started the track; you keep going ahead. It’ll save me a lot of time and effort.

Broken Spirits

Why would your spirit get broken? Go to the fundamental level and figure out the answer. Anyone can come up with many reasons. But all those reasons are just the wrapper of the real answer. The reason your spirit get broken is that you have a one in the first place. The problem is not the outside stuff that comes. The real problem is your spirit. This is why I always say that the problem itself is the answer.

                                If you don’t want your spirit to get broken ever in your life all you have to do is transcend spirit; not guarding it. You protect something because you can lose it. The act of protection defines your belonging as something that can be taken away from you. The source of your problem is that you try to protect your spirit. When there is no spirit, what would you protect? You can’t just stop trying to protect. Holding on to spirit itself is a protection of spirit. As long as you have this spirit, it can be broken at some point.

                                                                        Sure you can strengthen your spirit so that it wouldn’t break. But there is no eternal guarantee that it is impossible to be broken. If you don’t have a spirit you can know for sure that it is absolutely impossible to break you down. Then how do you give up this annoying problematic spirit of yours? Just forget it and be cool. Spirit is associated with ego. Spirit is strength. Spirit is diamond and diamond is breakable.

                        Osho said nothing kills ego like playfulness. That’s just his way. But your spirit wouldn’t exist while you are happy and cool. Being cool is being like wind. You can be the void if you want. Void is the ultimate. But first try wind. Just don’t take anything into head. Whether it’s praise or a disgrace, a profit or a loss, prosperity or misery just don’t take it into head. Just watch it as if you are watching a movie. You don’t have to respond or interact. Just don’t care. You wouldn’t care about what you see in a movie or a game. You just enjoy it, learn from it and be cool about it. That’s all you've got to do.

                        You are wasting your effort if you put your high spirit into action. Spirit is hazardous. Don’t waste your time telling yourself I’ll somehow get over all these things and…….you know all that motivational crap. Don’t go for it. Just be like okay I got f@<ked and now I’ll take care of this or I’ll start a company and make it worth 100 million bucks in in 10 years and stop it there. Consider these statements as saying I’ll take my breakfast from the KFC.

                                        Don’t be some idiot with high spirit. Just put away your spirit. It’ll save you lots of time and effort. Batman is one of the worst superhero models for you. Be a Randian hero. Not some martyr. Batman is awesome to watch (especially when handled by Nolan. Dark Knight is one of my favorite franchises ever) but the one of the worst lives to live as. Give up your spirit and just be cool. It will save you a lot of trouble and you’ll never have to even think about a spirit of yours getting broken.

Decide your way into Awesomeness

I just saw this pic and started typing. Being in a good mood is a decision. Good job if you have already figured that out. If you have, most likely you have already taken that decision. Most people don’t take this kind of a decision because they feel like they have to pay something to get something. Equivalent exchange is one of the most wicked creations and craziest delusions of human kind (Human 1.0 to be precise).

                                There is no price for anything other than what it replaces. The only price you will ever pay for anything is a negative one. But you need to know to extract what you need. It’s simple. But you have trained your life to make sure you avoid it at all cost. That’s how pathetic this Human 1.0 is. You can decide yourself to feel anything. It doesn’t matter whether is happiness or some other thing you want to feel. You can feel it at your will. But many people search for outside influences to take decisions. When generally taken, human existence is a mere phenomenon just as an ameba.

                                                                Take over your consciousness. Actually you already have control and you are using that control to make sure that you are controlled by outside forces. This article by Osho will help a lot to deal with all this. Ignorance is the source of all problems and also the only fundamental source. When you are fully enlightened, you don’t perceive any problems. If there is anything that someone would see as a problem, you’ll be seeing the answer in the very problem.

                                                        Human kind is plagued in psycho-illnesses. I’m not talking about the stuff that you think that needs to be shown to a psychiatrist. I’m just saying if you can find or even imagine anything that is more ecstatic and free than your current state, you are ill. Many names have been used to describe this total cure such as enlightenment or nirvana. Total cure is all about letting go. When you let go of everything that can be defined, you transcend everything.

                                All you have to do is give up that delusion that you have to pay a price. You simply decide to be felt awesome. You can decide your way into anything. Check some of my previous tips & tricks if you are new. Read more about Psycho-Engineering. It’s something it’s my re-invention of self-designing which means to be your own personal god. You don’t have to give a f@<k about the world. Just be god for yourself.

                                                                Reality is a subjective experience. Try some hardcore Buddhism or Quantum Mechanics (try this first). You’ll figure out a lot on your own. Actually that is what’s necessary. Telling the truth doesn’t consume much time, but convincing it does. I found a 30 page pdf and as described by the writer, he has 10 words of truth. The rest is just some commentary. You feel what you decide to feel. That’s 7 words and that’s enough to make your life 100% ecstatic. You’ll live happy and awesome up to a point that the whole society around you will be shaken and distressed. This is a firsthand experience.

                                                There is no path to happiness or anything. You simply be awesome. It’s a decision. You don’t have to ask the society like the OS of the computer you are using. You simply decide your way into awesomeness. Realize this simple fact. It’s over your very eyes. But you won’t see it if you are looking for some path. You only need to realize the things you can just simply see. Be happy. Be cool and never try to live a happy life.

For Endless creation of Marvels: Idea Waves

Ideas…those are just thoughts: But way more remarkable than average thoughts. Thoughts are called ideas/concepts/philosophies when they are really great and remarkable. After doing my first SPEEDRun I discovered this thing called an idea wave. Remember those idea overloads and idea sprints I’ve talked about. This is the combined version of it with some catalysts. You can actually make every single thought that comes to your mind an idea. Not just an average one, but a really good one. It might not always be the most avant-garde idea. But it’s always extremely good.

                                                            Idea wave is not something you do or initiate. It’s a state of mind such as happiness or sorrow. When you get into the state, ideas comes in waves like the waves in the sea. It doesn’t stop. You can go on for hours. Last night I spent about an hour sleeplessly due to the after effects of the endless idea waves. I could actually create at least 250% faster. If you are already good at idea overloads and sprints, you should know how much this 250% is. The general population should find piles of evidence to scientifically (!?!) prove the impossibility of such an occurrence as Galileo would have proved the impossibility of nuclear energy as in “The Profiles of Future” by Arthur C. Clerk.  

 

                                    First of all why would you need to do the action of coming up with an idea. Thoughts are endless. There is no stopping of thoughts. Try if you can spend a moment without a thought. Thoughts have a strong association with the non-staticness of the mind. When you rest your mind and take control which means deciding what to do and standing by that decision, your intentions become the reality. There is no process of coming up with great ideas. Just be your own god and decide what happens to you. Thoughts come up endlessly and without a break. Decide those thoughts to be totally awesome and avant-garde as well as useful.

                                                                                    The rest is about mastering and getting a good grip on this. On YouTube, I saw Seth Godin saying that he write multiple posts a day and post like 1 out of 4-5 which he finds to be good enough. Check his blog. Some of those posts are tiny simple stuff. All of them are good, but I felt sorry for the guy. He has got it all wrong. You never try to come up with something good enough. You just sit down>> pick a topic>> start typing with the subject on your mind. If you think about anything other than the subject, you are f@<ked. When the only thing that your conscious know is your decision to write something great, that’s what happens: Simple as that. When you click the Microsoft Word icon you get Word and nothing else. When you click on Bioshock icon, you get to play Bioshock.

                                                                        Simply decide yourself to come up with great ideas and you’ll get it all. Just stick with the decision. You are who you think you are. Be your god and take the decisions. Thoughts come endlessly. Decide what thoughts you should perceive. Don’t decide to have worthless random thoughts. When you can look at anything turn your head towards the direction that has the best visuals. It’s all about self-conquest.

Note: You might want to get familiar with sprints and overloads. It’s not compulsory. But many will need to evolve in multiple steps instead of a single shift in the state of mind.

Create like a Torrent

You might hit a roadblock once in a while when you are engaged in creative work. It might get difficult to have a good flaw and progress. You might not be able to come up with the required level of ideas. You might end up frustrated. Even idea overloads and idea sprints might look like it takes too much time if you are not a skilled think tank. That’s when you can learn something from torrents.

                   I happen to notice the similarity between the way I create and the way torrents are downloaded. When things are slow torrents become a great blessing. Torrents are fast because they don’t go from the beginning to the end. When your work is vast it’s unwise to go from the start to the finish. Idea sprints and overloads were founded while creating ideas; not creating a specific idea. Those techniques can drench you in a tsunami of ideas which is sometimes too much to handle. But every idea doesn’t fir where you are.

                                  If you construct a 500 page novel from 25-30 places at once, it’s easy for you to come up with an idea that fits your slot cuz you have a 30 of them instead of just one. You’ll come up with a new idea while living your daily life and you’ll be able to incorporate that idea into your work. Sometimes your 500 pages might end up getting close to 1000. I’ve started short stories which couldn’t even finish 10% of the story even after 50 pages.

                        Another advantage is that you know where you are going. You won’t be like: okay I did this part and now what?!! You one huge task will be broken into several micro-tasks. It’s always easier to connect 2 nearby dots. You’ll have a good roadmap. Things will also have a good flow. Think about an advertising campaign. If you are creating both the first phase and final phase simultaneously, there will be a great connection between them. A long set of campaigns will feel like a one big event. Nothing in your creation will seem isolated. There are many awesome Marvel super heroes. But none of the movies were as successful as Avengers. You should notice the flow of everything in the movie.

                                      If you are stuck with your work, the reason may be your idiocy of forcing your creativity on one thing. Learn from the torrents you download regularly. Start from multiple places at once and start filling the gaps. This is the best way to create massive works of sheer awesomeness unless you can’t handle being too awesome. If you can’t handle a good cognitive load, this might not be the thing for you. If you don’t like getting more than you intended to create, this isn’t for you. But if you are the person who wants to break your own standards of creativity and awesomeness, this is the path if you haven’t already taken it.

Marketing

Still there are some idiots who think marketing is about what you say. Effective marketing does happen from what you do. But the perfect marketing is the marketing that is more than 100% efficient. Marketing is about what you plant. It’s about the chain reactions you initiate. Simply put, it means making your customers do the marketing.

                                                                        Look at Facebook, Google, EA and such companies. Facebook created a good fan base of few millions. Those few million had their fun and those people asked and insisted people they know to join Facebook. People used to use Google search and started to call it Googling instead of searching. This gave a lot of promotion to Google search. One kid comes to the school with a Pokémon trading card pack and now everybody in the class needs a one. Think about Lamborghini, Ferrari and etc. they give their customers something to brag about. They give them very exclusive designs, high prices and other trivia to talk about. So the customers go showing off the Ferrari’s products everywhere. Just think about the things a person would do after buying a 0.5 million dollar car.

                                                                                                            This is the sort of things you have to do. You just have to give your customers something to brag about. When the iPhone and iPad came out, the customers could go and show off their gadgets to everyone. It was a refreshing experience. Apple Inc. doesn’t put much of money for their advertising campaigns because fans of Apple do a lot of promoting. You don’t have to be world famous to pull this off. There was a restaurant which became highly popular because it was built over an old cemetery. It’s a fascinating experience for the customers.

                                                Many people go to Wal-Mart or Wal-Mart equivalents because they know everything is cheaper there. Everyone tells about it to the people they know and everyone becomes subscribers. Not many people leave Windows and move to a different OS. When kids are taught to use PCs they are taught to use Microsoft Office. Just think why???

                                                                                    Marketing is about affecting the mentality of people. First you have to approach them in a way that you can enter deep into their minds. Then you conquer their minds by giving them what they would enjoy. Remember this to be a partnership. You are creating a pact with your customers. Make them a part of your work. Give them all you can to talk about and they will talk about you. That’s all there is to marketing. That’s how games like Dark Souls became popular. CoD and Halo was marketed by people who loved its multiplayer and wanted to play it with friends.

                                    Instead of showing people how much you care about them, give them something to talk about. Have your specific targets. Mass marketing is a total waste. Always work with a mindset which thinks of your customers as business partners. You give them what they love plus all new refreshing experiences and they start a promotion campaign for you. Many of your customers may not do a lot. But remember, ocean is just a multitude of small drops of water collected at a single place.

                                                                                                Be the chief. Don’t make it happen by yourself. Plant some good seeds. Take care of your customers. Everybody talks about visiting Disneyland because they enjoy the experience. Make your campaign involve your customers. Think a bit about how much you were connected to those 4^th wall breaking games and movies. Break the barriers between you and you targets. Sex and relationships are at its best when it’s approached as a team play.  

                                                                        Forget all the overcomplicated bullshit taught about marketing. Marketing is about communication and you don’t have to learn anything about communications just like you don’t have to learn to f@<k. think about something that made you talk hyped up and talk with your friends. Analyze and know what made you act in such a way. Then go and create it. Initiate a chain reaction. Marketing is not just your job; but also the job of the customers who use your products/services.

Promoting something is not about: this is awesome. Come get it. Thank you.

It’s all about: come, see and enjoy. Let your friends know about us too. If you come again you’ll have a good time. That’s what happen in Disneyland and the whole world is your Disneyland.
