A Solid Foundatoin

Matthew 7:24-27

“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.”


"Always on top of your base," Which is another way of saying, "You need to have a firm foundation." When you don't have a solid foundation you're off balance, which means your offense, your defense, every thing is weaker, and it's not just fighting. This applies to your life. A solid foundation is critical. Not only does having a weak foundation leave you off balance, but leaning forward over your base shows impatience and a body out of sync with the mind. Your mind is saying "GO!" but only half your body reacts, which means you need more training, more conditioning, or, more fortitude. In boxing as it is in life.

An Honest Look at DEI

This isn’t about whether or not DEI is needed (that’s a whole different post for a whole different day) rather this post is about whether or not DEI in this iteration actually helps minorities in the gaming space. The whole SBI/Gamergate 2 drama made me realize something, and apparently, I've been circling around this realization for quite some time , but I didn't fully realize it until the whole SBI/Gamergate 2 drama kicked off. Since its inception, DEI and SJW's have made it worse for minorities in the creative business. I grew up in the late 90's early 2000's and there was a plethora, and abundance of minority characters everywhere, and no one cared. Every fighting game had women and minorities fighting on equal ground with everyone else. So what if Mario and Zelda rescued the princess? Marle from Chrono Trigger didn't need to be rescued, neither did Ayla. The Androids in DBZ? the women in Naruto? Celes and Tifa in the Final Fantasy games. I could go on and ...

The Osmosis Effect

-

  In boxing, the osmosis effect is when a less experienced or less skilled boxer gets better by training with or competing against a more experienced or more skilled boxer. The better the opposing boxer, the faster the less experienced boxer levels up.  I’ve known about this concept forever, but it can be applied to anything. Writing, fishing, photography; and the most important aspect of the osmosis effect is the more experience person doesn’t even have to instruct the less experienced one. Just being around someone better, seeing how they operate, is enough. Proverbs 27:17: As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another

Zuckerberg Rebrand

Back in 2017, there were rumors Zuckerberg was making a presidential run. Some say there were rumors while others claim he was only 'testing the waters.' I think he was testing the waters, but either way, those rumors went away as fast as they appeared. Lately, clips of Zuckerberg training in combat sports started popping up , and with him being a billionaire who owns Facebook it’s safe to assume he's aware of how popular red pill content and people like Andrew Tate have become. I believe he's "training" in combat sports in an attempt to come across as more relatable with young men and the right wing...or I could be wrong and he's just doing this because he enjoys it. If he's training because he likes it, then more power to him and more people should follow his example.
