“The wealth that we all seek - is the simple bliss of not needing this moment to be different than it is:
> calm mind
> warm heart
> sense of connection to life itself
Cultivating this capacity to just “be” is the greatest treasure you’ll discover
The more time you spend just being - In complete PRESENCE
The more you’ll realize the old identity & all the effort it took to keep it maintained
Was exhausting and futile!
That identity - The sense of “I” or “me” only lives in resistance to what “is”
Notice this for yourself - Is your sense of self not always wishing for your life to be different than it is?
Are you not tired of this constant battle?
Are the best most wonderful experiences of your life not when you just let the moment be completely as it is?
Where you’re completely present with no agenda?
What if you simply let things be as they are?
Give yourself the gift of true rest, nourishment and connection
And once you taste it you instantly recognize:
“Ah yes! THIS is what I was after the whole dam time”
You also realize:
“I can bring this stillness into the messy chaos of life itself and I’m infinitely more effective when I do so!””
-Leigh St. John, producer of infinite bangers
“PRESENCE is the result of absence
Absence of identification with the survival program you call “I” or “Me”
That voice in your head that’s never content with this moment as it is..
That’s always scanning for:
> What’s wrong
> What needs fixing
> What needs controlling
> What future moment will finally make you feel enough
Who’s core programming is:
“This moment isn’t it. This moment isn’t enough.”
And so it ends up resisting reality
All with the assumption that if it can just control, judge or manipulate the moment to be different than it is...
Things will finally make sense
But it’s a funny thing...
Because you’ve tasted those moments where that voice calmed down
You stopped resisting the moment
And BOOM…you tasted it...
A wonderful state of serenity, peace, joy & happiness
Even if it was just for a moment
“Man…if I could just live like that I’d be unstoppable...now how do I change this moment to make this my new baseline”
And *POOF* it’s gone and you’re back to controller mode
Extremely frustrating
But it reveals a profound truth:
The happiness, presence, joy, contentment, sense of being enough are ALREADY here
Like the sun obscured by the clouds that peaks out to reveal its glory
(If only for a moment)
With that in mind...what if you just stopped right now?
As in...completely stopped
Stopped trying to find, get, seek or achieve ANYTHING right now?
Let the tension in your body be there
Let your thoughts come & go as they please
What if you stopped trying to control or understand ANY of it right now?
What happens?
What do you notice?
Take a moment to soak it in...how does it feel?
Can you bring this same approach out into the world & into the chaos of life?
Even just for the next 10 mins?
Give it a go & you’ll see that when you stop resisting, controlling & fighting this moment
And instead connect + tune into things, just as they are right now...
Things start to radically shift in your experience
The truth is the happiest people in the world live like this
It’s a profound giving up that paradoxically allows you to do whatever you’d want from FLOW & presence
There is no greater treasure you can find on this planet than learning to live this way
All goals are in name of this
Why put off your birth right any longer?”
-Leigh St. John, producer of infinite bangers
A poem
“1/21/2026 - Coach Brain,
This is just as we’ve prepared so
I’m thrilled you put me in the game
But you make my skills impaired when
You micromanage everything
You need to stop being scared and
Trust I’ll perform as you have trained
Cause once your faith is there I bet
You’ll never question me again”
-Some call him nugget, some call him tree, some call him Tre, I’d call him a true friend
“The ONLY WAY to receive ALL the productivity gains from AI is to own Bitcoin.
The amount of new productivity entering the market is exponential. It’s compounding towards infinity.
The only way to mathematically value that productivity is with something finite.
Infinity divided by a finite number is infinity.
Bitcoin’s finite supply of 21 million is exactly what the market needs to satisfy the infinite amount of productivity awaiting us.
The market wants to denominate infinity properly, AND the thing denominating infinity is the most valuable thing in the market.
You don’t have to hyper-gamble your way into elite status. You just have to play the game of mathematics.”
-Me
That’s all for this week :)
