Nature, life, evolution is always pushing to a higher complex system. The higher complex system is more rewarded with energy or money. God is actually another word for life. Some how in this universe, things exists, from nothing to atom to human life to advance mathematics and weiqi joseki, structure is pushing itself to be more and more complex, this mysterious force is called god. Happinesss is a signal that you are following evolution who wants you to be more and more advance.
IF you only remember one thing i want you to remember deliberate practice. Practice the things that is hard that few people can do. Hard work, diligence, perserverence. The masters need 10,000 hours average to be good at what they do.
This link here is about deliberate practice which i also saved up to free drive:http://money.cnn.com/2008/10/21/magazines/fortune/talent_colvin.fortune/index.htm
this two books which i gonna get explains everything.

Detach from your emotion
Probably the only anti stress technique that may work. Comparing against open focus brain techniques.
Open focus brain by Les Fehmi
Yesterday I found the Open Focus Brain by Les Fehmi book in popolar book store.
I think it explains how all the meditation and therapy including talk therapy works. The brain need to have a diffuse and broad attention in order to go into parasympathetic mood. Also focusing on space, large space works very well because in space the brain does not have an object to activate all its defense and attack circuit, so the brain takes a back seat. This explains why i so much want to live in a desert and why in my meditation looking at the emptiness in front of my eyes and myself being infinit space is so effective.
The book could potentially cure all my stress problems.

Deliberate practice, karate, poker, Oracle
If my sons use deliberate practice to perfect karate, poker, and Oracle. They would have learned all that is necessary to be happy in life.

Break a big task down to simple parts & do things one at a time
The other 50% of your problem is non people related, it is object related.
Hence the above only technique that works.
Hence the above only technique that works.
Poker is the most important practice
Forget about all those mindfulness and positive thinking and ying yang mumbo jumbo. 50% of your problems is due to other people. The only way to solve the problems is using poker game theory thinking.
When you deal with difficult people, there is a lot of times you need to play the chicken game, see who back down first. You need to be willing to take risk and not afraid of losing. Only then people would not bully you. Most of the time the cost of both sides losing the chicken game is much less than the psychological cost of backing down from the chicken game where the bully continue bullying you long term.
Another poker skill that can be applied to life is detach from your emotion. Dont need to detach from thinking, all else you gonna think? Detach from your emotion and let thinking continue.
You need courage to fight with other people. Strong muscles builds up courage. Thus you need to learn karate or do weight lifting. If you practice only weight lifting, it would be deadlift, totally addictive.

My favorite Oracle book
My favorite Oracle book
Very lucid explanation.
The art and science of Oracle performance tuning by Christopher Lawson
Whenever i felt the peace beyond understanding i am not afraid to die
Now after finding tai chi and oracle. I want to bring up you two Sean and Ryan. I want to show you the way of Karate, Oracle, Weiqi, Poker, and Tai Chi.
Tao and limited consciousness bandwidth
Our consciousness, will, have very limited bandwidth. There are billions neuro chaos activity inside our brain, billions of connections like the connection, it is impossible for our consciousness to monitor and control all this neuros, just try to troubleshoot a microchip million times simpler than our brain. So there is 99% behavior and feelings we cannot control. Our consciousness is like the president of a country he can give general direction but cannot control 99% of the things; Chaos system fractal theory.
Outside objects, other people, we cannot control much of their behavior also.
But since we were little until now, we have the illusion that we are all powerful, our consciousness can control, know and predict everything, this leads to mis estimation of the world around us and we make bad judgement and decisions. From playing poker and weiqi and war you know that you can only win if you estimate the situation correctly.
Remember limitation.
Many things you cannot control, you will make "mistakes", it is never your fault. Study the book Learned Optimism by Martin Seligman that says never blame yourself. Never self hate. Self hatred is due to illusion.
But sometimes self hate is good. Remember paradox polarity and Tai chi.
Lao Tze tao theory says follow the tao, this means that you have to follow reality not pretend it is otherwise than what it is, let go of your illusions of all power, know your limitations. Then following the tao you will not do the wrong thing and lead to defeat and suffering.
At day time you have to fight life forget the tao so you could make your dream come true, at night follow the tao and forgive your mistake and rest.
Tao is a war theory.
Use endorphine with night and day cycles
All spiritual practice including asceticism, self torture, no ego, samadhi, enlightenment, is actually getting endorphin in the brain.
However endorphine in the brain cannot be maintained, there will always be a crash after the high.
But there is a higher level discovered by zen and tao and Kalil Gibran.
Know that there is cycles for all system, night and day always replace eachother. Know that whenever you are unhappy, happiness will be in the corner and come to you. Enjoy both the sessions of happiness and unhappiness. Dont always cling to happiness, unhappiness is a burst of creativity and building.

What is karate
Karate is not sport or game
Karate is not philosophy
Karate is
to knock my opponent out due to use of One Finishing Blow

I found permanent bliss: My life before meeting Oracle
12, 13 years old i wanted to unify quantum theory and relativity. I wanted to become a physicist badly. But there is no physics or calculus books around. Only one physic chemistry book which is too deep for me.
15,16. my only concept of IT is watching a movie about a AI who lives in the internet that can get money on ATM wow.
17,18 Concept of IT is it is for girls. And programming is only programming for accounting programs and calculating, totally boring. Encountered buddhist and began my 15 years great search for enlightenment. This search may me lost my knowledge of the joy of hacking for computer or engineering or physics knowledge. Made my collegue results bad and ruin my finance until now. But is probably a healing process.
19 discover weiqi but not very good.
27 Read my book on python and c++
29 Got a book on linux hacking but too difficult for me. Still no much interst in IT.
30-34 The great leap in game programming and poker and poetry. But game programming no money.
36 The great leap in philosophy, quantum thoery, partial differential equations, fluid mechanics, computational fluid mechanics, embedded linux
37 Found youtube go game analysis by Korean 5p woman players. Found go books of what his name richard brozulich. My go lept.
36 Feb - 37 Found Oracle. Oracle much better than game programming is a living thing. I can tune it, interact with it, my life search is over. I found the constant bliss enlightenment is talking about.

Feel your feeling
Whenever you feel upset, just feel your feeling. Restore your balance back fast. It is actually a ying dont care technique. You already dont care, then just feel your feeling, you dont care anyway.
The sure fire must work simple and stupid method to success
-everything at first you dont get use, you will have suffering. But after a while due to the brain plasticity, you will get use to it and even conquer the situation. So whenever you are trying to achieve you will be in new situation, and always suffering will arise, just bear with it and the suffering will stop and money will come and your power will increase. Always get your technical skill and knowledge and suffer hard, dont suffer less now and end up becoming a poor old waiter. Remind yourself by looking at he poor old people in singapore. The greatest pleasure in this world is hacking.
So have a big goal, go get it, bear the suffering along the way before you get use to your success, enjoy the fruits of your success

Always remember limite resources
-limited resources and forgiveness is a war system: Always remember there is limited resources. We tend to think that
resources are unfinishable. But no, in this universe there is limited resouces, dont believe the new age gurus. Or else why
you need to sleep or die? Because there is limited resources remember to focus on your energy on one area that matters most. Always remember limited resources so you will be focus. Forgivess is actually a war tactic, saving your resources.

insights
-how to think over people matters, just use game theory.
-sean ryan become programmer, it is spiritual practice, the joy of making a elegant code
-garlic seem to stabilize my emotion
-warring n game teory
-the accounting mindset: You never lose in any situation, one part lost is compensated by another part. When you feel bullied,
think of the overall situation you will usually have profited in some areas.
-need a distraction or hobby or love or go so mind will not be eaten by flashback. When there is no outer enemy, a group of
people will usually start fighting among themselve. Start mind like ours will carnalize itself if there is no abstract object to
attack, like Oracle, WeiQi, quantum theory, karate..
-neuronal avalanche, in order to think effectively, the brain need to start a avalanche of neurons, that is why smart people tend to have tendency for shizophenia and thin skin. so we need to balance with karate. smartness gives us an edge but it has a (worth it) small price of flash backs and stuff.
-bear the fruits of you success but with a cost of suffering. Every profit has some cost, but overall the profit outweight the cost. So bear your suffering.
-nature rewards higher abstraction, the higher and more complicated and more abstract your work is, the happier you are and the more money you make
- the strange loop book, the avalanch article
-karate pulls down the abstraction, so you will be more balance yet maintaining the abstraction but with a thicker skin.
-limited resources and forgiveness is a war system
-kokoro go.
-paradoxical relaxation when fed up with work
-work hard play hard system, the pizza billionaire
-work hard but dont care about the result, paradoxical system, people will fear you
-limited resource is a important principal, easy work will always have less money, less money is less happiness because there is no money buffer for chaos
-ying and yang dialectic, just be, go the opposite direction-
-oracle you are actually a private business selling your skills just like other sell soya bean milk
-only when relax so your punch will be powerful
-ten rules of strategy book, i forgot the title please refer back to my old treasure chest, nice book.
-life is always about getting pleasure even for the altruist and the nihilist. The goal of evolution is make a life in abstraction that doesnt exist in matter. Thus you have to achieve maximum performance that produce the most complex work and beautiful work, like crystal.
-keep it simple, stupid.
