Monthly Goals | July 2025

Episode Transcript

We all care mortals Capable of mistakes The journey is not here to be agonized upon Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, mere mortal lights, welcome back.

It is monthly goals and we are here together, the mere mortals once again, back behind the mics.

You got Juan here.

And Kyrin on the side.

We've got a couple of people who are listening to this live.

So once again, now as we start trekking back into live mode here at the mere mortals, feel free to join us, on these Sunday mornings for those who can't.

There's always gonna be book reviews, all the good stuff.

We'll probably touch on a little bit of the monthly goals today.

We like to reflect back on the previous month, which was gonna be June.

Yep.

And then July, you'll start getting a bit of an insight into what we're looking at doing.

We are recording this on the July 13.

So it's quite a way in, but we both got back from Europe.

So Yeah.

We had no options.

Correct.

You'll see some of it of what we're planning, what we're doing.

It's gonna get interesting.

It'll be good fun.

So Yeah.

I think we just dive in.

We'll probably talk about, I don't actually know what our topic is.

Probably gonna be more meandering a little bit later.

Yeah, yeah.

After that.

The live ones, so just stick around if you're listening to this live.

If not Stick to the goal.

Remind us.

That's what it is.

But we're gonna get goals.

June 2025 for me.

I think you could recall back from a little while ago.

It was none.

No goals.

Enjoy the holidays.

Successful.

I did that.

Lots of enjoying the holidays.

There was I'm glad I didn't put anything No goals.

I failed them.

I'm glad I didn't put anything, you know, around running or around cause I could have accomplished the rain in every country.

Oh, yeah.

Did you?

I did.

I ran in every country.

I made sure that I ran in every country, not every city, but every location, just in every country.

So easy enough.

That was fine.

But yeah, no goals.

Fantastic.

I was just fully focused on relationships and what I was doing and obviously the wedding and honeymoon and enjoying and I would have spent a good like fifty hours on the beach I would have said probably on holiday at least at least I would say because of the five plus weeks let's just say two days out of every week we were at the beach from ten in the morning to 7PM at nine Basically not doing much.

So no goals.

So I successfully accomplished doing no goals in a really beautiful way.

That's good.

That's true.

It sounds like you had an amazing time.

If anyone was following one's Instagram, you would have seen a lot.

If not, is it what's your Instagram handle there?

Underscore be immortal.

Yeah.

So you used to be Swami, but not not anymore.

Okay.

Very good.

Very good.

We will hear more about the travels in the meander because we'll we'll do kind of like a travel recap of sorts.

My June 2025 goals.

So let's get into them.

Keep an open mind to all possibilities.

So there's a little hinting at, I met up with my ex and there was another girl actually I did meet up with.

And, she was just like a random one off I met for like twenty minutes here in Brisbane, ages ago.

And I went to just go see her and just see like, oh, you know, like, what's what's she up to?

And she's actually a really cool chick living full time in Germany.

So it's like, okay, that's not nothing's really gonna happen.

But it was very much worth going going to see her as well.

Prioritize friends and meetups over events, locations, sightseeing.

Yeah, I think I did that pretty well.

The times I did go out to do sightseeing was just when I had gaps.

And so it wasn't like I was going like, Oh, I'm gonna go see the leaning power to leaning tower piece or over, you know, meeting up with this friend or hanging out with this person.

No.

Same when I was in Zurich.

Like I hung out with my friend as much as I could.

When he was working.

That's when I went to go to the Lindt Museum chocolate tour.

Amazing.

Loved it.

Unlimited chocolate.

Let's not tell that.

Keep a close eye on your expenses and always have some liquidity handy.

So this was very nice when I hit the the crunch of traveling Europe and I didn't need an emergency loan, but I always had like backups.

So I skated through Europe.

And it was it was very good.

But yeah, at least for at least for Australian purposes.

Karim was trying to do the best taxation wise for his game.

Correct.

Correct.

Yes.

Now, fitness to one arm handstands and one run per week.

So on average, I did that some weeks I had to, you know, it was basically like I did one run or one instant workout.

But on average, I have indeed completed all of that.

And because I was gone for exactly eight weeks, basically.

I'm coming into tomorrow, a new set of workouts.

So it's like perfectly lined up in terms of my schedules, which was accidental.

Didn't I didn't know when I was going to come back.

So otherwise, I would have set more dates of saying like, you know, new models will be back.

Yeah, this is in July.

But it was I only knew like two weeks ago that I was coming back at this time.

So yep, here we go.

Fight with everything in your power to not feel emotionally bad.

This was just because there's times especially when you're in like party hostels, and you'll see someone like more, I don't know, you want to call it like, more energy full of you more party going more fun, more charismatic, all these sorts of things.

And I find it easy to compare myself to other people in those situations.

I think I did pretty well overall.

There was certainly like times where I had some mixed emotions and feelings whilst traveling.

But it was it was ultimately a very good experience.

And I didn't dwell on things whilst traveling as well.

So that was that was great at a probably the most tranquil of vacations that I've had so far.

Okay.

Okay.

Remember to make the most of everything.

This is your last time.

So, you know, I've was trying to embody that when I was in these places where it's like, you know, I don't know if I'll ever be here again.

But just there's certain locations I know I'm never going to be in again.

So I think I tried my best to make the most of them whilst also going like, I'm not going to walk five kilometres of 15 kilometres, 50 kilometres every single day.

It's not possible.

So there's times where you got to be like, that's a little bit and just and just hit up work on being more courageous.

I think I did this with especially with with my ex and some of the conversations we had.

That word and that is going to play a bigger role in I think next year's goals as well.

Courage.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So just a little little hint there and then begin staking to the various projects and keep up to date that's related to AI stuff in Morpheus.

And I did do that.

So tick tick tick tick tick.

Podcasts and listening and that sort of thing.

No.

So that was more in terms of actually using the the Morpheus token to like stake to people who I think are creating cool agents and doing doing good work.

So I spent some time going through the list.

I'm actually starting to actually use like a hot wallet on my phone for some of these things.

And I'd never really done that before.

So it's gonna be wrecked.

Yeah.

Once one security practices could use some update.

But for me, I think a very successful June and I had a lot of fun whilst traveling.

Good.

Once again, we'll talk more about that later.

We will.

Yeah.

A lot of those are encapsulated in, traveling and whatnot.

So I will.

Yes.

This comes out separately, but I think it'll be important to talk about the July goals.

Do we want to talk about just the boostgram stuff?

Yeah, yeah absolutely because So you process some stuff in our Discord which if you're not in there already folks by the way that's where we share a lot of the conversations and fitness and sort of like behind the scenes stuff.

We've got a couple of Snippets of videos of.

Yeah.

A lot of our solid like sort of members are listening in there.

So if you haven't jumped in there, you know, jump in.

Yep.

Have a bit of a sniff.

If you start advertising your Apple Mac to sell, I will kick you out.

I want these kind of tires.

But then So don't do that.

But yeah, jump into season behind the scenes.

Some guy came in.

And I'm wondering like, just for those at home.

Do you think I look brown?

Because brown?

Yeah, I'm like tanned.

I've tanned a little bit.

Yeah, for sure.

Yeah.

I think I'm feeling browner.

I was just looking at myself in the camera there.

I'm like, Damn.

Hey, look at this brownness.

I'm getting to one levels.

Well, I don't know.

I can't really pull this back, but I'm definitely browner as well.

Yeah.

Do you want to show off the ring?

The ring 10?

The ring 10.

It's actually done going away a little bit.

I can't really like show it on on the camera.

I guess more so would be like my my watch if you look at my watch.

Yeah.

I can watch that.

There's a watch like tan going around.

So, yeah, definitely we got Montana.

That's the European summer for sure.

But yeah, if you want to get little sneak peeks into daily stuff and daily conversations, you know, in terms of like group chats, we start to definitely be using the discord more correct now, especially once back from traveling.

Because some of that some of that stuff was just logistics and people don't want that.

So I have indeed updated all the boostagram stuff for the first time in six months.

So I usually try and do it quarterly.

But I had to I just Yeah, it was it was a busy start of the year.

So I don't I won't be able to show it up on the screen.

But maybe I can show it to the camera here.

Yeah, let me let me do it.

So good.

I think I can do it at the right.

Yep.

Yep.

So essentially, for quarter one, quarter two of twenty twenty five, we got 32,000 stats sats in quarter one and then a whopping 110,640 in quarter two.

A large a large portion of that later one was due to Peter's big boulder boost of 100 ks, which came in just before that was for traveling for months.

Yeah, for my wedding.

So thanks.

Huge, huge appreciate it.

Thank you very much for that.

Look, over time, you can see the numbers.

Yeah, look, they're going down.

There's there's no doubt about it over time, especially compared to like financial year '22 to '23.

'23, a little bit of '24.

And look, it makes sense.

That's when I was certainly doing like a lot more conversations, Pouring more effort in this graph is a good indication of effort being put into the podcast.

'23 was when and the latter part of '22.

I was putting in a fuck ton of effort.

Effort.

There's no doubt about it.

Well, I would only say it's effort in the specific realm, I think of the the not just boost to grant, but like that entire ecosystem, I guess as well.

For sure.

But Sorry.

The reason I say that and the reason I say that is because I also saw just on, like, YouTube.

YouTube and not our audio one because it's harder to track that because we've moved a couple of times.

But if you actually look at our YouTube growth, not in views, but in actual, like, subscribers, it's just been, like, on a literal linear trend over the last year basically, like without any real, like it's a good consistency whether more input or less input.

So I guess it obviously depends on the what it is that we're tracking specifically on boost to grams.

So I would say it's the effort in the connection and the ecosystem of the people who are utilizing.

Yeah, like that mode of support.

For me, I put more effort into the podcasts in those years.

For sure.

Conversation wise, the amount of time purely spent on podcasting stuff was way higher double triple than what I'm doing at the moment.

So maybe even more so 100%.

We're doing an episode a day.

True.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That was simply like it was a lot more.

Yeah.

I think the graph also reflects that.

There's a couple of like interesting things.

This is where it's yeah.

Once again, like if it was just easier to get up a table of supporters to show this stuff on our new website, I would and have it updated continuously.

Once again, this is where it's like, I just want to be able to say to an AI agent, hey, can you grab this stuff, put it here and not need to do all the vibe coding, even though like vibe codings, the, you know, the easy way of doing it, because you're not actually writing the code yourself.

It's still I've tried it out.

I've done it with my brother, it's still extremely frustrating.

And this is where I need the agent.

So there's a couple of interesting things.

So Peter has crossed the two, three, four, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

I think number of amount of the sats boosted in.

Yeah.

Okay.

So $22,300,000.0 is, is above now.

So thank you very much, Peter.

That's huge.

Amazing.

We really appreciate that.

Cole has been very consistent.

He's been doing well.

Lyceum.

So Martin Lindeskog, he jumped up like five places in our little ranking leaderboard.

He's still pretty far off a t shirt.

But you know, this is where it could be like, Martin's jumped up the ranks and being able to show it on the screen, you know, that that is incentivizing the gamification of things does work.

On the Morpheus Discord, they've got like this little game thing that you can play in now.

And it's just, it's like, totally changed.

The amount of people getting in there.

Yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's kind of sad in that it's like, fuck, we can get tricked by games so easily.

And it's like, you'd say it's so superficial and things like that.

But it fucking works as well.

So, you know, to come to come, I think we'll probably be talking more in the future about the podcasting.

This is I would say, close to like, the lowest point perhaps in terms of effort like this last month or two.

Oh, definitely.

Definitely, definitely.

So I'm very much hoping that some things will change in the in the next year and stuff where it would make it more viable again, to do perhaps conversations or things like this.

Yeah, there's a lot of stuff to work on.

But this is one of the things that I would like to integrate more or if not necessarily this because once again, boostagrams still are hard.

But I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel of this vision that I've been I've had for a while, which is you don't need to know SATs, you don't need to know, hey, I'm boosting in 5,648 SATs, it's just, hey, I'm gonna send them in models $2.5 on an app that is similar to Spotify or, or Apple or whatever.

And they send it in probably uses lightning or something like that in the background gets to us and then we can call them out.

So I think that is coming still probably a couple of years away.

But that's what I'm very much looking for.

And when I see that I will be one of the early users.

100% Yep.

And again, me kind of slightly different views on on that and and ultimately where when it might play out and timing and stuff like that.

But again, for those who are supporting us right now during a time when it is really difficult to do boost your grams in the in the comparison across like every other means that you can do so.

Like amazing.

Yeah, yeah.

There's, you know, if, for example, if the if Bruce end up never working out or and we do switch to another system, for example, we've got think like 30 t shirts still, this is where I'd be like, alright, for everyone who has boosted in on the leaderboard, You get a decent, you get a decent, you get even if they didn't hit the 100,000, it's like, you know, you still contributed and I'd be willing to reach out and, you know, pay some shipping expenses or whatever.

So yeah, there's a whole bunch of things like that where it's like, yeah, there's, there's still lots of ways I want to reward people who are who supported us.

Who supported us and especially if they did so early when it wasn't cool or when it wasn't easy, things like that.

I very much appreciate that.

So call in the chat.

You might have another t shirt coming your way.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I sent him a t.

Yeah, I got to have sent him a t shirt.

Yeah, I definitely I'm almost 100% sure.

Okay, Cole loves my evil sixes right now.

I'm pretty sure I did.

Let's let's keep going.

Let's go to the July goals.

Yes, absolutely.

I've, I've actually got goals this particular amount around.

And at least for me personally, August begins my fresh annual goals.

So this is The end of the end of an era.

The end of the of the thirty two year old annual goals era.

So some of these are obvious in that respect.

So from a body perspective, I got six all up body perspective.

I want to establish my fitness back to the standard.

So, you know, standard here being just a really straightforward method.

I'm using currently a five by five method.

I've talked about it in that protocol.

So I won't go into it.

Check out that episode that Juan put out.

Correct.

I think it was the one before this.

Yeah.

For protocols and look, it's just purely what are the protocols?

What am I following to get back to the minimum standard I need?

And then that it's like kind of like jump off points the next couple of days.

And also check into the next episode because we're gonna be talking about some weight changes we experienced during our travels.

Oh yeah.

Goodness.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yep.

One but fat.

Well, I actually lost weight as I usually do when I go on holidays, but it was a loss of muscle increase of fat.

Three, three items of the mind, one set up my new annual goals and monthly goals, easy peasy, but that was take a lot of time as I've been finding out.

Setting up my new way of journaling.

So when when I came back from Europe, I had a bit of an inkling feeling that I wanted to change a little bit of the daily journaling that I'm doing kind of attached to my protocol change for a morning routine.

That's been going really well.

I'll probably talk about that separately because it's our own whole domain to talk about.

So, as you'll see me and more or less, I talk a lot about the monthly goals and it's going to be an insight into what's going to come out probably for the next couple of months and years.

I'm going to spin way more things now for the existing stuff that I do because like things like the journaling, I feel like I could talk about it right now and talk about five minutes, but I actually consciously think, you know what, I could easily turn that into a much broader, more valuable piece of content to just create and release and talk about it fluently.

Some insights into what's coming in the annual goal.

I've started to write down some interesting things for the following annual goals.

I'm gonna trial out the new morning routine with at least twenty days this month of it in terms of like following it.

I'm up like blistering pace, smashing that because every single day in July so far I've done it no matter Saturday, Sunday, whatever every day started basically no not basically exactly the same in 04:15AM wake up well or even earlier when I was there like a 04:15AM wake up gonna get my like just a black coffee with ice.

So sitting down doing the things.

The Patrick Bateman.

Yeah.

It's been really good.

Like it's been really good.

With a 15 grams cream on my forehead.

Yeah.

Massage that it's been, it's been like, I think I've I've always previously followed a morning routine of some kind, but I I cannot I'm amazed by how just following a really diligent, not time wise, not time wise, but just knowing that in, like, in this time domain of thirty minutes, I wanna do this and have these supplements and do this work and do these daily routines and they'd get going to the gym.

I've gone like, oh, wow.

That's a big game changer to what I was doing previously.

I think previously it was because I might sit on Instagram for five extra minutes, look at the news for three minutes, look, you know, not just wait.

No.

I don't be wasting time.

And it's just, again, energy that you associate somewhere versus putting it elsewhere.

So it's been it's like, man, man, it's been good.

And then two more.

So be kind to others, strict on my standards, again, something coming out of Europe.

They're just being kind to the others in terms of what they're accomplishing, what they're doing, the speed, stuff like that.

But But again, strict on the standard that I expect of myself, which is a duality that's hard to, hold, I think, for me personally in that it's easy for me to be strict on myself, which is fine, but then the problem comes in that I hold that strictness to others when it's an unfair thing to put a gun in the world where it's like, you'll be kinder on them, stricter on myself, that the more I can balance out the better.

Sounds very similar to my thing that's related to like, yeah, be Yeah, it's pretty similar, actually.

Like, that's I'm strict on myself when it but I have the extra thing of when it's like, if if if I do good things, then I won't like, be prideful about it.

And if other people do good things, I'll, like, praise them.

For example.

Yeah.

And we'll be like, yes, it was because you you were strict on yourself.

You were determined.

Yeah, you gotcha.

Yeah, that it's a it's an interesting concept.

Socially now that I've started to articulate that sort of wording with my daughter in that she's starting to, she's always probably understood for like a year now, but now that I say words, you can tell that she is absorbing or parroting back or saying things.

So like for example, it would be a soccer, say she performed in a way that was like really good.

I've gotta watch the language that I use because usually for myself, it might be strict in like, oh, yeah.

I did 95, but actually it could be better at the 5%.

And like, you know, next time you gotta like accomplish this and do that.

And you might maybe that is helpful for me.

Maybe.

Like, I'm not even saying it is.

I'm saying it is maybe, but then I've got to be careful in that I'm kind to others in that I'm celebrating effort.

I'm celebrating accomplishment.

Yes, I might not be perfect, but that's not the world because you could very easily then extend that into other people who are close to you.

And it actually is a negative thing as opposed to something you think is positive only because it feels that way for myself.

Maybe because I've developed that over time and it feels good, does not equate to everyone else being the same.

So very important one and then do one daddy daughter podcast conversation.

So gonna hold that one again.

It's it's now Oh, I haven't talked about it on the podcast, but I did a book review just recently and I had camera going, phone going and the microphone going, microphone just absolutely crapped itself on me and the audio recording from the phone is what saves me using some AI, just clean up from Adobe.

It like made it sharp enough that you can listen to it and it kind of makes me think, man, I don't especially because just I'm not sharing these publicly.

I'm just gonna probably just plunk the phone in front of it.

I'll have these microphones to use because I have seen that she will sit and hold it and kind of like talk into it.

I probably won't even connect them.

I'll just record it on the phone, take the audio if I want to get them crisp by wheel.

But again, I'm not sharing this to anybody and in the future if I want to, crisp them up if I want to, then I will, but what's the point if I'm not sharing with anyone?

So apart from the family, so it kind of made me think like, even easier, even again and that's going to be a tenant that I carry forward and now is where I can from an efficiency perspective do it like it kind of doesn't matter as much.

So those those are the goals July immortalize for Juan's wedding.

We had the microphones as props.

They weren't actually attached to anything.

But for the speech to speech to the Yeah, it was just it was just a prop that gave the power.

I hated it.

I don't even know who started that.

I think it was your your wife's mum, your wife's mum, I believe is the first mother-in-law.

My mother-in-law.

That's the correct terminology there.

Yes.

All right.

My July 2025 goals.

So first thing, don't rush into establishing a busy routine open time for serendipity.

So this is coming back to Australia now.

And, if you recall my my goals from last year, I part of it was saying like, when you're in the search for a partner, it's you got to have room for serendipity of like, oh, you meet someone cool?

Well, if you're on a strict routine, and you know, you got to catch the next bus, or you're like, got to be at this next place, you meet someone cool.

Well, then what are you going to do?

Are you going to just be like, Oh, fuck that opportunity.

I'm just gonna go and do my regular routine?

Or is it like, Oh, no, like, here's a cool person.

Like, I'll spend continue that twenty minutes chatting with them.

So yeah, trying not to get into a routine because I do like routines.

But I'm gonna try and push it off as long as I can.

So maybe a month or two, maybe even more.

But I've got a whole list of random things like ballet classes, going to a beach volleyball thing, taking my brother's dog Butters for a swim for the first time, all this stuff where it's like, I want to do it.

And it's it'll open me up to new places, new opportunities, new people.

And you can't do that if you're like daily strictly.

Yeah, you know, working out one arm in stands every day sort of thing.

So do that.

Start working through that list of fun activities slash catch up with friends, which I'm already starting to do Meeting some more friends this afternoon and going to reach out to our high school friend group and try and get something going pretty soon.

Create a tab list for the crypto top indicators graphs.

And this is also what what can you give us?

So this is more the on chain metrics, for example, I can give you some that I've got here.

Because I do have my social metrics, which are things like meeting people who have quit their job to do crypto slash AI stuff, which I did meet last year, right near the top, you know, links failures, things with dodgy arbitrage.

This one's already like so under illogical behavior, three x companies experiencing revivals from buying BTC.

Oh, my Lord, that's already at like 35 of 100 now.

So that's that's already like one thing.

But the on chain metrics are things like the BTC two hundred week moving average hits red on the heat map, SOPR above 1.15 on Checkmate, ISM manufacturing PMI in the 55 to 60 one, BTC historic risk levels above 0.8.

And these are all things MVRV, BTC, long term HODLer and UPL.

All these things are like ways of measuring where coins are moving, how they're moving percentage of profit people and stuff like this, where it's, it's still social in nature, because it's people moving it but you do get this, you're able to quantify it.

And it's also across multiple different places.

Bitcoin Magazine Pro Plan B, Checkmate, Rational Route, Real Vision, Ben Cohen, Coin Bureau, Glassnode, Market Radar.

How are you keeping tabs of all of this yourself?

Well, this is where I was saying like, I'm going to probably what I'm going to do is actually get all of these in tabs at the moment, it's just on my phone of like, oh, I should go check this out sometime.

And this is what I should roughly look out for.

But I do keep a weekly like snapshot.

And in that snapshot, I think I'll also be like, Alright, this is the time to bring up all of these tabs.

Look at where we're roughly at.

You wouldn't trust of like an agentic way to just summarize that give you the summary of it all if I can do that.

Yeah, sure.

Should be should be should be fairly easy.

Okay.

Yeah.

Well, I'll probably do both because I was asking.

Last night I asked Venice.

So once again, this is Venice, but it's using the open source large language models.

And I'm sure Brock used to be open source, I believe.

So I don't know if they've been fully open source.

Part part part part part, you know, so, you know, there's varying levels of quality.

I know this.

And I know, probably I'm taking a hit with Venice in terms of the accuracy, but it's allowing me a lot more uncensored stuff at the same time.

So you know, there's trade offs.

I was asking it.

I saw a music video.

And the music video was of Oh, I've got them Marina and the diamonds.

So it's the girl Marina, whoever she was.

And it was a music video from thirteen years ago on YouTube.

And I was like, Oh, she's really pretty there.

Like, I wonder what age she is.

I was like, Oh, you know, I could find this out myself.

But I'm like, you know, I want to start using these things like asking Venice and stuff like that.

What?

How old was Marina and the diamonds thirteen years ago, is what I asked her.

And, you know, did it thing calculate it perfectly.

And then I was reading it, and I'm like, oh, and it said, based on the assumption of, you know, thirteen years ago, from current today from the current year, which is 2023.

And I was just like, I spent five minutes being like, what made you think this year was 2023?

Like, give me the source that made you think this and it's fucking around and not telling me and I'm like, this is this is the kind of bullshit where it's still like, you can't trust these things.

100%.

Yeah.

Well, you do.

It's always with a trial if you if you trial around different AI models, right?

You're talking the codes, the open AI, the grocs, the more open source ones, the the level of there's not, not illusion of That's illusionations.

Yeah.

It is varied and I've even started now that I've used it so much to see it in different models of the same company.

So the example here, OpenAI is four point ero versus o three at the current time that we're sitting.

If you use o three for certain things, it's really good mathematical and scientific.

However, using the o three model for existing like content that you feed, especially a lot, it will just make shit up like completely for no reason, for no reason, but using the same OpenAI but for O model does not do that.

So you also have to be starting to be being careful of each of the models and what they're trying to do or convey.

Again who knows exactly how they're merging it, but you start like just getting the feel for them of course but no for sure and I think in this circumstance I think you should absolutely try using not it's not agentic but just using AI to just help conglomerate the information that you care about because what what I've been finding really and what I've been doing myself is really important is from all of that, so there's an underlying thing that you're actually trying to obtain from all of those sources and it's probably whatever you talked about.

So social wise or She was 26 by the way.

So social wise or financial wise and all of those models, there's things that you want to answer or like to you give a ranking or a rating or something like that from all these sources.

I think it's just pausing the hand of those AI's to look, conglomerate information to give me a result on these areas and then you get a trend.

And as I like to say, I think at those levels, you want a directional trend.

You don't want a precise trend.

Like, you don't actually care that Bitcoin's at 117 or 118,000 or that 132 companies or 152 companies publicly hold Bitcoin.

It's more around a directional trend of that.

Yeah, correct.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So so with all of that, and that's the thing, though, it's, you know, I don't know exactly what I want.

I just want to know, Okay, on average, how many of these indicators are hitting into like, the what you would call euphoria one?

And I but if five of them of the seven are there, does that then, you know, I'd need to clarify in my mind more to be able to tell the thing as well.

So if someone is this why it's also like, if you want an example of something like this, lots of these exist.

It's like algorithmic trading.

You know, the guy Gene Simmons, I think it's Gene Simmons.

Gene Simmons had a I'm not gonna give you numbers because I think - Gene Simmons from Kiss?

It is, but I think Gene Let me look this up to make sure it's correct, but I'm pretty sure it's Gene Simmons.

Why is Fox the lead singer of Kiss is like an algorithmic trader?

Let's let's make sure he's this guy is like, sorry.

No.

He was the bassist of guitar.

Sorry.

Jim Simons.

Yeah.

If you got that wrong.

Jim Simons, founder of Renaissance Technology.

He's a quantitative quantitative hedge fund in New York and this guy's an old guy who's a mathematician, was a mathematician and then turned into hedge funds.

Basically what you're talking about, he did it for like just shares and trading and in other financial markets and basically under the hood is what they were doing.

They were just taking like however many millions of point of information and movements and data and whatnot to algorithmically trade and do certain things.

And like a few other hedge funds made like such ridiculous levels of money, it had like a scaling problem because to a certain level couldn't do more money to get the returns or they made it more like close family and whatnot, but it makes like ridiculous money.

But again, it's just using that relative of getting all the points that are, I guess, tangible to the markets changing.

I mean, similar here, it's just kind of like, I guess what you're saying there is you just want to find what are all the points of inflection that would make prices or certain things change or at least alert you of like I'm saying this, this, this, this, this, that then in turn made realistically this.

One thing I want to remind people with with all of this, you know, being able to outsource your your thinking to an a being or an entity that is smarter than yourself.

Look up the story of long term capital management, which was a hedge fund by all these quants PhDs, like everyone agreed that the smartest people in the room, etc, etc.

These guys got absolutely insanely massive.

We're on fucking 100x leverage, trying to eke out these tiny arbitrages and you know, these ridiculous like, you know, just they were the smartest ones, they thought they had the best opportunity to capture these things.

And so they were going crazy ham on it.

And because they were hubristic and not as smart as they thought they were, They ended up just fucking blowing up and causing untold chaos to many, many people who trusted them because they were smarter than themselves.

So once again, with with AI and things like this, you can say it's smarter than myself, it can do all these things.

If you're not fucking checking it and making sure it's doing like the foundational basic stuff, right.

You're gonna be in some pain.

You're gonna have a bad time.

Yep.

Yeah.

Okay.

And again, separately, we're gonna talk about this later.

I asked a question to a few of our listeners, you know, what would be a good topic to talk about?

Cole came back with he wants to talk about, AI as the the new, God, basically, the new religion.

So there's some aspects of that I think we'll talk to in the future.

Yeah.

Yep.

Sure.

It sounds like amusing in a week or two.

Yep.

Alright.

Who we got very sidetracked there.

It'll edit and analyze handstand travel video plus start new smarter gym logs.

So this is being able to essentially take all the videos that I've taken most training.

So analyze them and then with the gym logs do I know exactly what I knew smarter gym logs.

I don't even remember what I was talking about.

I only only remember that you were talking about you sent me a picture of your gym logs and you were like, oh, can AI or something like turn this into a digital form?

Yeah.

No, I don't I don't think it was that I think it was, I think I just meant smarter in sense of I've learned from that I was overtraining.

And so right.

Okay, I think that's what I meant.

Alright, reaffirm your life purposes do a symbolic moving on.

I'll talk about that perhaps a bit more in-depth in the next episode.

But yeah, once again, kind of like aligning myself back from travels, you know, bit chaotic.

So it's like, alright, what do I care about?

What do I want to focus on now that I'm back here?

Let's let's reaffirm that full travel recollections into the journal.

So this is I guess, like more intimate thoughts and details, which I have been using the journal for podcast is great for that.

But there's still some things I don't share publicly here.

Double down on being more courageous with your loved ones.

And there's particularly just having having some conversations where it's like, I don't really want to have this like, I don't want to bring this up because I don't know exactly how this will go.

But it's probably something that's been nagging me a little bit.

It was like, alright, I should I should bring it up and then spend three plus hours trying out various agents and bots.

And I've got a little list of ones that I want to play around with, try out things, etcetera, etcetera.

So Awesome.

Yeah.

This will be good.

If I'm gonna, yeah, look, I'm not going to go to side quests yet, but yeah, that, that and the, in the just learning, just learning and applying and using this the same with crypto, same with AI, some with whatever, whatever technology, just be prepared to learn, be prepared to use.

I had a conversation yesterday with someone in the software space that was kind of describing to them how much I'm starting to see in contracting space AI, like really decimate some people, like some huge ones.

I mean, that came out recently as well was if you work in HR, basically fucked, that role is going to get kicked out so quickly from companies, it's not funny.

So if you are in the work industry, if you're doing it for fun, just pick it up, learn.

And I think at some point crypto is going to be similar.

Maybe it's just like a slower pickup when we're seeing an AI, but yeah, it's interesting times.

I'm glad that you, you know, put in the time in there as well.

So, sure.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think, I think we'll probably leave it there as well for the month.

Yeah.

So just fitness, I did not tick off any of my actual fitness challenge.

So I still have all of the, you know, big worksheet.

This is the things that we were doing a couple of years ago together.

Now it's just me lonesome, correct, trying to try to tick off some of these things, which are mostly related to handstands one arm.

I have hit a bunch of PBs whilst traveling.

And I think I got to seven seconds on my right, five ish seconds on my left in various different shapes between straddle diamond and even tuck even yesterday, I had one or two, it's getting into like, a fun territory where it's probably at least once a session, I will have a decent hold.

Whereas two months ago, three months, six months, I was having that one decent hold a month maybe.

So it stepped up to like once a session once a month, it's much more enjoyable when I can come in and be like, Oh, I've got a decent chance of good work something happening.

Yeah, which is cool.

That is really it's a fun feeling.

So yeah, that's, I'm enjoying training a lot more.

It's nice to get past that fucking real frustrating part and get into like a final part.

So yeah.

Good.

Yeah, fit, fit in for me.

In fact, again, I kind of talked about already in goals, but it's just about re getting back to the usual weights and movements and things that I've been doing.

One thing I guess that is different.

I haven't been doing any Olympic lifts since I've been back.

Don't know if I'll introduce them anytime soon, partially is Olympic lifting good, but it does put a lot of strain on joints and the technicality of it, I kind of went, look, am I really, really going to need to be doing this in the general broadness of my life with the level of potential injury and concern that it can bring, maybe not.

So for now, that's not in there and I've been enjoying just doing my other stuff.

I mean, so that's been really good.

Brilliant.

I think we'll leave it there more than that.

I don't think there's any comments that I can see.

No, I don't see anything there.

Okay, perfect.

Awesome.

I can see there.

Fantastic.

So we'll leave it there, Me Immortal Lights.

Thank you for tuning in live to this Me Immortal's monthly girls conversation.

A little bit long, a little bit winding and that's just how it's gonna be with us getting back in from the holidays.

Again, if you're listening to this live, then you can always join us.

A monthly perspective monthly girls, it is every month, usually at the start of the month or the end of the month.

We're going to have our musings meandering sort of conversations at 9AM on Sundays.

That's going to be the returns that tune in for that.

Yep.

Should still stay the same.

Be prepared for some of the stuff, like little insights that I would give is that some of my annual goals that are to come and then monthly goals that come from it is gonna be more obviously just more for the mere mortals, a little bit more selective, more thought provoking, more like longer in terms higher quality, let's just put it, than just absolute rough stuff that comes out of it from from myself potentially.

So look forward to that.

But for now, if you've been supporting, and enjoying the the content, get ready because, yeah, we're gonna get back doubling down.

We're back.

We'll be doing We're back.

Before that.

So thank you very much, me more or less.

We'll leave it there wherever you are in the world.

One.

Up.

Carry now.

Good.
