Creative and Visionary Minds

Creative and visionary minds are often misunderstood. Yet they are right more often than not.

Envy

Envy spoils—intentionally or unintentionally.

Worse, it kills.

Prejudgment

One is quick to judge—yet the culprit stands by, waiting.

Kings and Pawns

I slay Kings, not Pawns. But you force me to slay even Pawns.

Government Concept

This is highlighted by a dilemma in which people have diverse and contradictory interests, so the Government will ultimately decide. Government is more necessary, especially when there is a deficit or imbalance in entitlements among the people’s groups—usually, one group is stronger, whereas another is weaker in staking a claim.

Merge Work and Passion

Interweave work and passion.

Work provides the financial means. Passion brings pleasure and happiness.

In the end—whenever and however you depart—you will leave fulfilled.

Satisfice vs Optimize vis-à-vis Interests and Incentives

Low interest and incentive, typically satisficing (seeking “good enough”)

High interest and incentive, typically optimizing (seeking “absolute maximum”)

Echoing Herbert Simon’s bounded rationality.

The Achilles-Type (a novel philosophical concept)

For me, the Achilles type is the ultimate synthesis of the Sigma and the INTJ: fiercely independent, unapologetically confident, and deeply introverted.

An Achilles-type phenomenon: 

Intense Mastery: Exceptional skill, relentless passion, and a genius for absorbing, creating, and deconstructing ideas.

Ruthless Strategy: Dedication to rational, efficient, and decisive execution.

Radical Freedom: Outright self-reliance paired with an unconventional worldview.

To live as an Achilles-type means possessing a conviction so absolute that you desire engagement even with the demon—even if you must stand alone.

Learn to Write

Writing is extremely hard and slow, but if you get it, it creates an immense edge—yielding an echoing and enduring influence.

Ang Matalino ay Matalino

Ang Matalino: 

Minsan, nag-Harvard; karamihan, hindi.

Minsan, nag-UP; karamihan, hindi.

Minsan, nag-Cum laude; karamihan, hindi.

Minsan, nag-PhD; karamihan, hindi.

Minsan, hindi natapos ang college (e.g., Nikola Tesla, Walt Disney, or Steve Jobs).

Do not get me wrong—having a degree will definitely give an advantage. Use that.

But broadly and loosely, ang Matalino— they create and innovate.
