Would you agree or disagree: most people dont have the talent needed to live a life of signficance?

[Anonymous]

The type of life that everyone notices when you die. Wht i see is that for every Moses type figure there is 100,000,000 nobodies

Agree

Disagree

Talent is not the problem. Believing you're hopelessly disadvantaged because of who you are is.

Anyone is capable of becoming anyone. It takes effort and time, but it's always possible. It will *never* feel like it's possible, but that's because your brain and body lies to you to try to keep you safe. You learn to overcome that, and you become all-powerful.

The real problem is that most people delude themselves into not trying. That's the real killer.

Life is TOUGH. Life is suffering. Sometimes it's endless. The people who lead lives of significance push through regardless.

What's to disagree with here? Thousands of people die every day and I don't know who the fuck they are. So obviously yes not everyone is super famous.

Why does it matter? You can do one infamous act and your name will live in infamy for years.

[Asker]

I heard an analogy i liked recently. You can spray an m16 like most people do, or you can wait 10 or 20 years for your one shot on your target. Patiently in 1 spot. Like 50 cents song Patiently Waiting or Eminem's Lose Yourself

[SaoirseS]

Shot placement matters more than spray-and-pray.

[Asker]

Ok what happens when you miss your shot then you reset and you have to wait another 3 5 10 15 20 years of constant patience. Buddhism is required

[SaoirseS]

Just don't take the shot if you can't hit the target!

[Asker]

Do I look like a pussy

[SaoirseS]

Nope, where are you getting that from?

[Asker]

I have to take my shot when I have to take it. I don't have a choice

[SaoirseS]

Whether to take the shot or not is, of course, your choice. For me, I know my own abilities, and if there's a chance I won't hit the target, I'll wait patiently for another opportunity rather than alert everyone.

[Asker]

Good plan ngl. Conceal your intentions until they can't do anything about it. Otherwise you get isolated and singled out

[SaoirseS]

Yep, have to think it through and be patient :-)

[Asker]

Imagine if Eminem told his wife he was going to try to make it big. He told her he was going to compete for $500 prize money. If he told her he was going to make $100 million, she would've sabotaged him out of jealousy

[Asker]

Imagine if Moses told people he was going to hunker down until the time was right to free the jews from egypt. He would've been hunted down and killed. Imagine if Adolf Hitler told everyone he was going to start war with all of Europe. He would've been arrested and given a life sentence, not just 5 years. Making people underestimate your aspirations and goals is so key

[SaoirseS]

Yes that is why I don't leak my plans for world domination ;-)

[Asker]

I thought ceo's talked about their big plans a lot to their people. Now I realize they tlak about the principles and values their people need to have ultimate success while under selling the results. Always conceal intentions

[NostalgiaSenpi]

All it takes is a guy with a CDL to drive through several buildings with an 18 wheeler to become famous.

[Asker]

Good point. Maybe that's why those type of suicidal people do that crazy stuff. Semi better than just ceasing to exist
