  • On doubts

    February 18th, 2024

    Of course it is in you. Of course you are never sure of what there is to do. Of course you are never sure of where to go. Life is a hell of a thing and all you can do is advance small. So are you fill with doubt. It is a proof that the decisions or actions to be taken are decisive. Whatever the case, just do it my friend, and don’t be afraid to fail.

    —————————————————

    Never enter enter an asymmetric relationship. Whether it is you or the other party having more advantage in terms of the common goal.

  • On Rejection

    February 17th, 2024

    The more I get rejected, the less scared I am of rejection. Remember, do not get rejected by the same person many times. As a friend of mine told me, moving many times to a person that rejected you is a form of harassment. You never want to move back to them, but you want to know why they rejected you. No need to asked them, for people generally signal what there is in you that repels them. It is up to you, after all self assessment, to decide if you will precipitate that part of you into the flames

    People will tell you what is good for you or what will save you base on what saved them.

    Detail

    It is painful to like someone and to realize that some details will make compatibility impossible. Nomatter how many similarities there exist between you. The details make the difference. A very big difference.

    —————————————————

    Flaws

    You think more about other people than yourself. You try to understand the reason why they did x or y, then justifying their dids with the created explanations. Most of those explanations aren’t made from good will but out of fear of confrontation. It is easier than dealing with the real issue.

    —————————————————

    The only reason you don’t move forward is because of distractions. You are distracted by everything. Get your act together on one thing very important and focus on that. But how can you do that when the basic things like food, housing and resident permits are not put into place? Don’t think too much about this. But how do you stop thinking too much about such things when they will determine the course of your life? It is not like these things are not important, but don’t kill yourself for things you cannot control. Focus on what will give you those things not on them directly. They are the derivatives of hard work. Work extremely hard on yourself and the world will be yours. Haven’t you heard that the world belongs to the man who conquered himself?

    —————————————————

    Too nice, way too nice, this has to stop, you rarely and hardly say no. People will take advantage of that too easily. Whenever you talk to someone, and It is about to turn into a fight, you start smiling, as if there is no problem, until the problem manifests itself later, because it is too large of a problem to avoid Now.

  • On learning

    February 9th, 2024

    For now you look at it as a torture. But the moment will come my friend. And even if it never comes, I want you to continue learning. This is what it is about my friend. You evolve by learning. Remember that I urged you to transcend yourself my friend. To do that you must learn every single day, especially about your imperfections, until you die.

    Regards,

    Best Friend.

  • Beyond

    February 8th, 2024

    You should not let a day passe without you becoming better. Transcent your limits, go beyond yourself. This is what I want from you my dear Thierry.

  • NOTE TO A YOUNG MAN 00

    February 4th, 2024

    I am your best friend and your worse ennemi. I am what you aspire to be. I am your beginning and you your end. I am the definition of what gives meaning to your life. I am your ideal. I will give you the lessons you need. For I want you to move to another phase of your life, I want you to get something big out of your life. Nobody on the face of the earth wants your good as I do. I will push you in every possible direction, to make sure that you become the man that you are suppose to be.

    Let me start with a question my friend?

    WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR YOUR LIFE?

    You are terrified of this question, aren’t you? But you clearly know that I am not the one asking you this question. Life itself if questioning you. And you must answer this question, if not today then one day or the other you will be brought to answer it.

    A moment will come my friend, when you will question your own existence, those moments should be remembered and every emotion felt should be written down, they are what make you profound. I want you to live my friend, go about in books you have before you, get to know people and how to act about that.

  • Some words (1)

    February 3rd, 2024

    If you are to communicate, let it be the truth only. Only after having a clear picture of who you are, will you know if you are fit to move a long way ahead. You suffer because the people you love are not what you want them to be or as you envisionned them (including yourself). To know each other, you must communicate. Through communication you get to know the truth about each other’s personality. It will determine how far you can move with one another. You will not be able to have a genuin relationship unless you come to love/like each other’s personality. So, my dear friend, never force anyone to love/like your personality or force yourself to love another person’s personality. But how often do you fail to do that? Many times.

    ——————————————————————————————

    Whenever you say the truth, you free some space in your mine. You don’t have to remember or to orchestrate anything in order to make it remain a truth. A lie must constantly be redefined. It feeds on itself. Lying implies a lot of thought. It is an artificial connection of variables. A liar must make sure that all those variables are present for his lie to remain believable, for his lie to remain a “truth”. That is why lies feed on themselves, they have to be constantly checked. It must constantly be revised, rearrange, in order to give the same result: Another LIE. A truth is a constant. You are not yet up to that level my dear friend Thierry, I want you to make it a habit of telling the truth, acting truthfully.

    I don’t yet know of any animal apart from man that lies.

    ——————————————————————————————–

    Whenever you face a problem, the first and easiest thing to do is to seat and dodge the problem, to hide it under the carpet as if it never existed and will have no consequences in your life. The second and hardest one is to think about the problem with the desire to solve it and taking actions to solve it. And nothing is as painful and rewarding as the second approach. So many times have you hide yourself from your problems.

    It is very common to pretent that you are solving a problems. You enter into a delusional solution to your problem. You invent a solution you know is not a solution, just to avoid dealing with the problems, but it always come back. If you really want to solve a problem, do it with the intention to never have to face it again. You may encounter such a problem in the future but because of the level of focus and seriousness with which you solved the first one, the second problem should be easy for you.

    ——————————————————————————————–

    When it comes to relationships my friend, don’t move if you don’t know who you are and where it is that you wanna go. This is one of your flaws my friend: You engage yourself too fast. It is an obligation to study whom or what you have before you, especially yourself.

  • The Eternal excuse (Note to a young man)

    February 1st, 2024

    It is pointless to say that if you had someone’s advantages you would have done something great. It is pointless to say that you failed because you don’t have this or that. Especially today, with so many advantages. You always thing of what you would have done if you had X or Y. Remember, even the person having X or Y is thinking of what he would have done if he had A or B. Transcend yourself. Go for it, and if necessary perish in the persuit.

    Regards,

    Bestfriend and Enemy.

  • On Knowledge (Notes to a young man)

    January 31st, 2024


    January 31st, 2024

    Let me share with you some secrets, my friend—lessons that may guide you in your journey toward understanding.

    Learning and the Mind
    Firstly, learning itself is not hard. What makes it difficult is finding the connection between what you already know, what you wish to know, and the new knowledge you must acquire. The real challenge lies in your attachments. If you approach learning with the humility of knowing nothing—if you can empty your mind—new ideas will form themselves naturally.

    You do not fail to learn because you are unintelligent. Often, you fail because you are too attached to certain ideas. As Carl Jung observed, you may even be possessed by those ideas, instinctively gravitating toward people and paths that reinforce your beliefs while resenting those that challenge them. This instinctive justification of what you already know can be a barrier to true learning, my friend.

    The Trap of Knowledge
    Secondly, it is common for those who recognize past mistakes to believe they are exempt from repeating them. This is the ultimate mistake. It is easy to know what to do after many failed attempts, after observing errors committed by others or by oneself. However, the danger lies in assuming that this new knowledge makes you infallible.

    The greatest folly is to think that what you know now is final, that you are beyond error. Remember, those who made mistakes in the past also believed their knowledge to be complete. To think of yourself as unfalsifiable is to invite disaster. Stay humble, my friend, for the belief in your invulnerability is the surest path to failure.

    On Success and Failure
    Finally, there is a tendency in those born under favorable circumstances—or in those who succeed easily—to believe themselves special. Such people often look down on others who struggle, wondering why they cannot achieve the same results. But if you stood on the other side of the river, you might curse fate or attribute your failures to external forces.

    Man creates explanations for his successes and failures, often in ways that protect his ego. Especially for his failures. Rarely does a person have the clarity—or the courage—to see their own mistakes. And you, my dear friend, are no exception.

    Takeaway
    I want you to be formless, like water. Be open-minded, for this is what attracts true knowledge. Always keep in mind that the man of the future will one day discover a new technology and wonder how the man of today failed to see something so simple.

    We laugh at the mistakes of those who came before us, pointing fingers at their folly, yet we fail to examine our own actions with the same scrutiny. When people in the past made mistakes, they thought they were doing the right thing. Whatever you do, my friend, give room for the possibility that you may be wrong.

    With this mindset, you will not only learn but grow. And in your growth, you may avoid the arrogance that blinds so many.

    With regard,
    Your best friend—and worst enemy.
