Everyone is an artist. Art is a form or redemption from the human condition. Some people call themselves artists without creating art, but that should not detract from real art. It is more common and less understood than pop culture would have us believe.

Language is a lens. It is a layer. The linguistic layer will let you see things not as they are, but as they have been defined. Definitions. Fascinating when you consider that "meaning" is as meaningful or as meaningless as you want.

When things are happening "at scale" you need to be very careful before deciding that you "understand" what's happening. "At scale" is impossible to comprehend. Only understandable by metaphor.

What is right or wrong has everything to do with your intention. An empty mind or robot cannot act rightly or wrongly. The more conscious you are, the greater your capacity for right and wrong.

Morality is a linguistic project. Ethics is an experiment of language.

In our world of information abundance the only way to maintaining identity is to ideate more than you consume. To be a consumer first and a participant second is to be a voyeur of your own life, and to waste your talent.
#PracticalPhilosophy #2020 -
Focus on language when thinking. Language is the vehicle of thought. Language manipulates, clarifies, obfuscates, emphasizes, minimizes or maximizes, emotes and distills. A problem verbalized can bring tears or joy. But, always better than silence.

If your language doesn't map onto an actual thought, that's a poetic lie. If your language fails to map into reality, that's another kind of lie. Honesty is an exercise in refining your language to more accurately reflect your thoughts and the world.

People are more similar than they are different. Hard work and great effort make more of a difference than innate talent. People who get that backwards are usually unhappy.

"Face-to-face" communication has many layers. The linguistic layer, the emotive layer, the context, the gestures.

Your energy level is a result of the extent to which the agreement you have entered into with the world around you is allowing you to be yourself.

Consciousness is impossible without language. If you want to act more consciously, make your voice heard with your language, and use your thoughts (imagined words) to increase your consciousness even more

If you're a maintenance worker, if your job is to maintain, appreciate that you would be out of a job if there weren't creators. People that create are required.
#PracticalPhilosophy#Appreciate -
If you are creative, if you create, your creation will require maintenance, or else no one will see your work. Make sure you have a maintenance plan.
