Most people don't choose Good Times.

Statistically, most people choose wrong and are experiencing numbness once they have it.

• careers choices to maximize income

• pursuing degrees to increase skills

• making purchases, wearing outfits, and getting titles to signal power

The problem:

All optimize for safety from bad times, not Good Times.

Safe from lacking money.

Safe from overwhelm.

Safe from others interfering.

All aim to eliminate bad times.

All root in not having lasting freedom over time.

Even with all three:

→ OK-times

(no need to escape, but no real attraction)

To understand this, you need to undersatnd the 3 Good Time stages:

1. Escape pain = Energy is blocked (Bad Times)

2. No pain = stagnation (OK-times)

3. Move toward desire = energy flows (Good Times)

Only one option gets us to stage 2 while also promises Good Times once we reached it.

Absolute Freedom in how you spend your time.

Because Good Times equals freedom to flow towards desires, not just having no problems.

And time is the only truly scarce resource.

So the real question:

Are you optimizing for safety or Good Times?
