HOW TO STOP EATING LIKE A CHILD

[Thread]

⬇️⬇️⬇️

 Many of your problems can be related directly to your diet.

You’re tired. You’re stressed. You’ve got anxiety. You aren’t seeing progress. You are fat. You are weak. You don’t sleep. You’re skin sucks.

It doesn’t have to be this way. ⬇️
You’ve conditioned yourself to only like salty, sugary, crunchy, and “fun” foods.

Everything you consume revolves around pleasure.

Just like a child, you enjoy the high of that sugary snack.

And just like a child, you crash and become irritated and tired soon after. ⬇️
This isn’t completely your fault.

Big Food, Big Sugar, and hoards of companies shove advertisements for these addicting foods down your throat.

Children see an average of 3-5 fast food TV ads per day.

Add in billboards etc, and this is an abundance problem. ⬇️
This wouldn’t be a problem if humans were known for self control.

We aren’t.

So you stuff your face with these things at every opportunity.

This fattens, softens, and depresses You.

So you eat even more to comfort yourself. ⬇️
Now that that’s all addressed, here’s how to systematically stop eating like a child: 👶👶

Step 1:

Get a notebook and pen.

Don’t do anything different.

Eat as you normally would.

**Write down every last thing you put in your mouth for 2 WEEKS**

Don’t lie to yourself. ⬇️
This is going to build some awareness to what you are eating.

If your list looks like this:

Fruit loops, Cookies, ice cream, Chips, French fries, burgers, pizza, Mountain Dew, Busch Lite, Gatorade, TV dinners etc

We’ve got work to do. ⬇️
Step 2: Go to a store and purchase a refillable water bottle that you think is cool.

You are going to drink a total of 1 gallon of water a day.

That’s 128 ounces.

If you insist that is too much, shut the fuck up and do it anyway.

It’s nothing. Have some discipline. ⬇️
You are 70% water.

If all you’ve been drinking is sugary coffee, soda, Gatorade, you are probably chronically dehydrated.

Don’t believe me?

Get a glass. Put some ice in it. Fill it with water.

Drink that whole glass

Soak it in

You’ll feel alive

Like a new person. ⬇️
If you are still drinking regular sugar soda.

Stop that bullshit immediately. Those calories are killing you.

Switch to diet. Or zero cal.

Then wean yourself off that

Make it an occasional treat. ⬇️
Do this for two weeks. Log everything you put in your mouth and drink a gallon of water.

Step 3: we are going to add in some protein to your diet.

Protein is the most critical element.

Protein = meat.

Every meal, add extra protein.

Few more bites of steak. ⬇️
Record the extra protein in your notebook.

You are now logging your food, drinking a gallon of water, and eating extra protein.

You are now doing better than 95% of people!

Give yourself a pat on the back. ⬇️
Now, up until this point you probably haven’t lost much weight.

We’ve been setting the foundation.

Step 3:

Time to worry about your calories

So far, you’ve just written what you eat

Now we are going to start paying attention to the amount of calories you are consuming ⬇️
Download MyFitnessPal.

Record everything in there that you eat.

It will give you the amount of calories you eat.

Do this for 2 weeks while continuing everything else.

If this is too hard for you, revert back to the gallon of water and build some fucking discipline. ⬇️
All over the internet there is ways to figure out your maintenance calories.

Here’s the formula:

Maintenance Calories = goal body weight in lbs x (10)+total weekly training hours.

Find this number.

Trying to lose weight? Eat 500 cals less for two weeks get on the scale. ⬇️
If the scale doesn’t go down, lower by 200 cals.

Hit that mark everyday and don’t go over.

LOG EVERTHING THAT GOES IN YOUR MOUTH.

Your weight will start to go down. ⬇️
Now, we’ve increased your protein.

Your food tracker will tell you how many grams you are eating per day.

If you aren’t already day, eat your body weight in grams of protein per day.

Non-negotiable. Do it. If you can’t, you don’t want it bad enough. ⬇️
Step 5: Up until this point we have not taken anything away from you. (Beside sugar soda)

Now is the time.

Go to your fridge and pantry.

Throw all your vegetable oils. All your processed food. All of your sugary treats.

Throw it all away. Start fresh. ⬇️
Make a list of real foods you enjoy.

Eggs
Bacon
Red meats
Pork
Chicken
Rice
Potatoes
Fruits you like
Veggies you like
Real butter
Olive oil
Coconut oil
Whatever

Fill your fridge.

You are adult.

It is now your responsibility to have these on hand 24/7. ⬇️
Every week, decide what you are going to eat for each meal. Make sure it fits into you calorie/protein needs.

Pre-make these meals.

Eat them.

No excuses.

No eating out. No extra office cookies. No treats.

Eat the food you intended on eating.

Everything else is noise. ⬇️
If you can do this for an extended period of time, you will earn the right to enjoy the occasional treat.

Kids eat treats because they succumb to the temptation and love the sweetness.

You have built the self control to enjoy them occasionally. ⬇️
To Keep It Simple and stop eating like a child:

1) Build awareness for what you eat
2) Drink a gallon of water
3) Prioritize protein
4) Track calories based on goals
5) Eat mostly whole foods
6) enjoy the occasional treat.

If you do this, you are now eating like an adult.

If you have less revenue/growth/success than you wish you had, then the best thing you can do is OWN IT.

Write a tweet, tell your friends, and move on.

Once you own it, you fix it.

99% of people on Twitter/social media/internet won't do this.

Being radically transparent and honest is a competitive (and life) advantage.

From @RayDalio's Principles:


My new product has 14 users and <$400 monthly revenue. I've spent the last 4 months on it.

I'm going through a lot of pain to validate and grow it.

But if anyone asks me how it's going I will tell them exactly that.

If I asked them, I would hope they would give me the raw truth as well. Truth builds trust.

I think that goes for your internet audience as well. Authenticity is attractive.

I see this with @starter_story all the time - people don't want to share their revenue yet because they don't have any, or it's not high enough (not all cases but often).

I wish I could tell them that getting the cat out of the bag would actually fix the problem itself!!

Being humble is to be felt. It’s not something that you show off.

Being humble means recognizing that we are not on earth to see how important we can become, but to see how much difference we can make in the lives of others.

Be kind, work hard, stay humble, smile often, stay loyal, be honest, travel when possible, never stop learning, love always. #BeHumbleLikeSSR #JusticeForSushantSinghRajput


To share your weakness is to make yourself vulnerable; to make yourself vulnerable is to show your strength. #BeHumbleLikeSSR #JusticeForSushantSinghRajput


The higher we are placed, the more humbly we should walk. #BeHumbleLikeSSR #JusticeForSushantSinghRajput

👨‍💻 Last resume I sent to a startup one year ago, sharing with you to get ideas:

- Forget what you don't have, make your strength bold
- Pick one work experience and explain what you did in detail w/ bullet points
- Write it towards the role you apply
- Give social proof

/thread


"But I got no work experience..."

Make a open source lib, make a small side project for yourself, do freelance work, ask friends to work with them, no friends? Find friends on Github, and Twitter.

Bonus points:

- Show you care about the company: I used the company's brand font and gradient for in the resume for my name and "Thank You" note.
- Don't list 15 things and libraries you worked with, pick the most related ones to the role you're applying.
-🙅‍♂️"copy cover letter"

"I got no firends, no work"

One practical way is to reach out to conferences and offer to make their website for free. But make sure to do it good. You'll get:

- a project for portfolio
- new friends
- work experience
- learnt new stuff
- new thing for Twitter bio

If you don't even have the skills yet, why not try your chance for @LambdaSchool? No? @freeCodeCamp. Still not? Pick something from here and learn https://t.co/7NPS1zbLTi
You'll feel very overwhelmed, no escape, just acknowledge it and keep pushing.

I started TRT before the age of 30.

I did it because I wanted to, not because I needed to.

My Total Testosterone Levels (naturally) were just above 700 ng/dl

That's **Good, but not Great**

I wanted to be at 1,000 ng/dl (GREAT)

...

So, I talked a doctor into prescribing me Testosterone Cypionate.

NO DOCTOR IN AMERICA is going to agree to prescribe TRT to a man who is naturally at 700ng/dl

So, I intentionally crashed my natural T levels down to 300-400 ng/dl, then got bloodwork done

(I intentionally made my natural T levels look far lower than what they really were)

How did I intentionally crash my natural testosterone levels? (to go from 700 nd/dl, to 300-400ng/dl)

Bloodwork was planned for Thursday

...

Tuesday and Wednesday Night, intentionally get trash quality sleep (balls can't produce testosterone when you are sleep deprived)

Drink a ton of alcohol Wednesday Night (high alcohol consumption suppresses testosterone levels)

Soon to be mother, Mrs. Gemma Edwards was never a believer of miracles until it was time for her to deliver...

Gemma and her husband Craig Edwards had already chosen a name for their unborn child, they named her "SKYE"and she was truly a miracle from the sky...

#OdogwuTales


She was already booked to deliver her baby Skye via Ceasarian Section because she had an extra bone in her pelvis making her birth canal questionable

It was 4days before her due date but she just felt the urge to go to the hospital and she went...she was rushed in for surgery...

Baby "Skye" was delivered and she just cried a little and stopped and that's when the doctors knew all was not well...

Baby Skye had rashes and bruises all over her body, she also had severe heart, blood and lung problems...

Her internal orgrans were practically shutting down!


Doctors told the Mr & Mrs Edwards that if she had spent another 3hours at home, Baby Skye would have died in her womb that her coming in early gives her a chance at survival...

Doctors worked hard to save Baby Skye but no one could figure out what was wrong, after a few hours...

All hope was lost for Baby Skye and the doctors called the hospital chaplain to say prayers, Craig and Gemma were told to take pictures before it was too late

Family members flocked to the hospital to say "Goodbye" to the little girl that had just arrived..BUT GOD WAS NOT DONE!

#Thread The legend of Ekadash Mukhi Hanuman ji...


Mahadev himself narrated the story of Ekadash Mukhi Hanuman ji to Maa Parvati. Once a great monster named Kalkarmukh performed the severe penance of Brahma ji.


Pleased with the austerity of the demon, Brahma ji gave him a boon that the person who will have eleven Heads like you and who was born on the day of your birth, only he/she will be able to kill you. No one else will kill you.


After getting a boon from Brahma ji, Kalkarmukh created a ruckus in all three lok. He invaded Swarg and snatched all the rights of the Devtas and became himself the king of Swarg.


All Devtagan came to Shri Rama and asked him for help. Hearing the agony of the Devtagan, Shri Ram called his supreme devotee Hanuman ji and said, "Pawan Putra, Sankatmochan".

(MAJOR NOTE) The reason Manafort took over Trump's campaign in just 3 weeks despite being hired as a mere delegate counter is that ROGER STONE initiated a whisper campaign against Corey Lewandowski. That campaign started...days after Manafort returned from meeting with WikiLeaks.

2/ Stone and Manafort are longtime business partners; we'd expect Manafort to tell Stone what Assange told him, and for him to expect Stone to then pressure the campaign not only to hire him but quickly elevate him.

And who was Stone in touch with at the campaign? Trump himself.

3/ I bet you Manafort's late March emails are very interesting and that some of them are to/from his longtime business associate Roger Stone. And I bet Roger Stone's late March phone calls are very interesting and that some of them are to/from his longtime friend Donald Trump.

4/ At the end of March 2016, Trump suddenly convenes a NatSec meeting. At that meeting he directs his NatSec team to change the RNC platform in July to benefit Putin. Who later takes credit for that change?

Paul Manafort's business associate, Kremlin agent Konstantin Kilimnick.

5/ Why did Donald Trump suddenly convene a NatSec meeting 3 days after he finally hired Manafort? Why did he issue a pro-Kremlin directive at that meeting that Manafort's camp would later take credit for? What did Manafort tell Trump in the days leading up to that NatSec meeting?

Thirumalai Murugan Kovil
#Panpoli
#TamilNaduTemples 🚩

Thirumalai Murugan Temple is located in Tenkasi district of Tamil Nadu. Muruga is worshipped as Thirumalai kumarasamy. Temple is situated near Kerala border and known to be where Shri Murugan gave darshan to Rishi Agasthiar


Devi is worshipped in the temple as Thirumalai Kaali amman

Sthala Puranam says that, there was a priest named Poovanbhattar of Thirumalai Kaali amman. Murugar appeared in a dream of the bhattar and said to find a Vigraham, lying in particular place which is of Thirumalaikumaran


Bhattar conveyed the news to the Pandalam Raja and they went to find out the vigraham. Surprisingly ants showed the way to find the Vigraham. Thus Murugan vigraham was found and Prathista was done here. There is a lake with pure water on the top of the hill


which is said to be created by Agasthiyar. It is believed that kannaki of
Chilapathikaram visited here before going to Kerala. Sapthamathrukkal also worshipped Murugan here. Kanthashashti Thiruvizha is very famous here.

Technical Analysis Masterclass- Part 2

'Entering the trade'

Entering a trade without ascertaining a certain things is gambling.

In this masterclass we will learn the pre-requisites to enter a trade.

DON'T ENTER A TRADE WITHOUT DETERMINNG THE FOLLOWING.

Please share.

We understand what reward to risk (popularly called risk to reward) is.
It will be denoted by R:R.

We will also try to bust a few myths about R:R and how to avoid losing trades.

Before entering a trade, you need to determine 3 things.

1. Entry trigger
2. Stop loss
3. Target

1. Entry trigger = Reasons for entering a trade. There could be multiple reasons or a single reason for entry.

Generally a set of reasons AKA confluence is a higher probability trade and a generally a safer entry.

Example of an entry trigger.


2. Stop Loss.

The price in the opposite direction of the trade where the trade is exited, at a loss.

At this level, the reason for the entry becomes invalidated according to TA and the price can then move in the opposite direction, probabilistically.


3. Target is the possible price level that the asset might touch based on previous trends or confluence AND where a possible reversal could occur.

Target is the next path of least resistance from where the price might reverse.

We will always ONLY use TA to determine all 3.
