* Remember that the code within you that organizes energy into life, is a gift. Learning how to use that gift, is your gift to yourself. It’s called curiosity. Never lose it.
* What you call money, is actually a crude form of quantifying human energy. Learn how to gather and store this energy, but don’t be deceived that more is better. An overwatered plant will die.
* I store my energy in starch, but it’s stored in a way that it doesn’t lose it’s value over time, because one day you’ll need it, and not less than what it was supposed to be. You can’t store it in starch, but you can in Bitcoin.
* The very act of exchanging value is an investment towards, conscious or not, something you believe will give you more value than what you are exchanging it for. I need CO2 to grow, and give back O2. I like the trade. It helps me to grow. I don’t exchange what doesn’t help me to grow.
* You can be deceived, and you probably already have been, where you have exchanged something for something else that seemed very important in that moment, but did not hold the perceived value through time as you’d hope. That’s ok, because those mistakes are part of the gifts to yourself. I once planted in a rocky, dry area with a great view… but the view was worthless as I withered for spending all of my water savings for the view.
* Keep track of your water volume, your net worth. Revisit monthly if what you spend your energy on, is helping you grow or take away from your growth. Cut expenses consistently as they are just holes in your leaves, no matter how small they are, as they are costly to repair and are a net negative to your overall health.
* Don’t believe other plants that tell you they can give you a stable future, like stablecoins. You’ll end up under their leaves with less value over time. The future is unknown, just like the weather, and ultimately, you are responsible for yourself, for your own growth, for the gift that was given to you.
* Value comes from a healthy exchange of energy. Remember that you are part of something bigger. I need CO2 to grow my trunk, and I give back O2 which my environment needs, which gives me back CO2. We can cheat each other but only temporarily and we both suffer if just one cheats. Just look at Mars.
* Don’t worry if you didn’t know this (or should have known this) before. This problem wasn’t taught in your school. Only the math without life-learning example. Besides, the real lessons are learned in practicing, like I did, not once you close a book.
* Your world is just part of a bigger world. And it will change. Be ready to change. Life happens through change, because the universe rewards change. Your coding is just the boot code, not the final code. Write your own story, your own code.
