I'm back, sort of kind of
Added 2024-05-02 19:24:44 +0000 UTCI took a bit of time to stop looking at screens and change a few bad habits. It was good to not watch frantic tiktoks all day for a few weeks. I've been doing that since July and it's REALLY bad for you.
I spent the past few days cleaning things up, ramping up for more production, and talking with people. I'm gonna interview WhatIfAltHist on cycles of feminism in history and what they do to societies. I've got someone producing snappy edits of my longer videos like Sex Fight with Macken Murphy (an argument we had over my ideas and how I present them) and my LIVE Q&A material. I say some pretty interesting stuff in those lives, and TikTok needs to see it.
Overall, I am slightly somewhat more rested than before (resting is hard) and my head is not traffic jammed with pure psychic poison, so I can think (more) clearly again. I have infinity ideas for videos, it's just a matter of grinding them out, which is pretty hard, it turns out.
I'm going to go through a phase of elimination. I'll only be doing the things that work best for me, so basically YouTube, Patreon, and possibly coaching will get all my attention and TikTok and IG and Twitter will be afterthoughts. I have over 400k followers on IG and it pays $0. TikTok used to pay quite well and now it's down to like... a third of what it used to be? a quarter maybe? EVERYTHING SO COMPLICATED.
Anyway. Keep telling me what you want to see from me, it always helps.

When I find things interesting, I tend to dig in. I am finding all of these dating issue very interesting. I am actually in information technology.

2024-05-11 12:14:58 +0000 UTCGlad to see you coming back (though you never really left). I generally only watch videos / live on youtube. I am not on Tiktok and never use IG. I am really hoping you will be around giving advice for a long time. Hence, some suggestions that might help you be around giving advice for a long time: - I know this feels like a repeat but it seems so many guys don't get it. Do one short video for guys where you emphasize that to maximize your attractiveness you need to maximize ALL of your bad boy traits AS MUCH AS YOU CAN. THEN you are at maximum sexual attractiveness. (Maybe leave out / deemphasize the dark side so you don't get overly criticized or banned.) - Definitely consider getting a virtual assistant (I have heard about good things about virtual assistants from the Philiphines. They have a good reputation, are very inexpensive ($10 /hour probably gets you an amazing assistant), and they have very good English, there is a timezone issue though). It might be a waste of time and (a small amount of) money, but it might actually be very helpful. - Try to do more collabs. I am guessing they are less work (or at least more fun) than making a single video and then your editor might be able to break them up into pieces for tiktok, youtube, etc. giving you lots of content. Here is a list of possible collabs (in no particular order): - Michael Sartain of https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelSartain - Orion Taraban of https://www.youtube.com/@psychacks - Tom Bilyeu of https://www.youtube.com/@TomBilyeu - Mark Laita of https://www.youtube.com/@SoftWhiteUnderbelly - Sadia Khan of https://www.youtube.com/@sadiapsychology - Rich Cooper of https://www.youtube.com/@EntrepreneursInCars - Courtney Ryan of https://www.youtube.com/@CourtneyRyan - Go back and redo collabs (whatever podcast, Macken Murphy, etc.). I think once every 6 months, or maybe 12 months, probably won't be too much and other creators are probably looking to make content as much as you are. - Consider doing a small amount of coaching a month. I know it's tricky to set the price as you may well price most of your audience out of the market. You might want to consider two tiers. Maybe a "low end" tier of $100 / 50 minutes (a few hours a month) and an "overflow" tier of $500 / 50 minutes (for a few more hours a month). Some of the people I looked at charge between 300 / hour to 3600 / hour for coaching. - https://oriontarabanpsyd.com/consultations/ - calendly.com/therapybysadia/one-to-one-voice-call - https://calendly.com/richard-cooper/60-min-paid-coaching?back=1&month=2024-05 Thanks again for all of your content. It has been very valuable to me.

2024-05-10 14:18:08 +0000 UTCHello, Mr. Math. Congratulations on getting engaged (or married - none of my business)! I love your videos and your sense of humor. I admire the emphasis you place on the promotion of self-care, a recurring theme in your content. I see evidence of this in your Amazon recommendations, where you took the time to explain why you were recommending them. I think this is a really positive and helpful message to put out. It's nice to see you actively practice what you preach by taking a break. I look forward to learning more about the "levels" paradigm because it seems like a very practical way of understanding and empathizing with others, which is important to me. Keep up the good work!

2024-05-10 00:29:22 +0000 UTCYour 'Upside Down' video was a good one. Nice to see you're discussing other topics that involve the real truth of our world. Perhaps I should watch your Q&A videos when I have more time on my hands. Keep up the good work!

2024-05-07 17:24:34 +0000 UTCHi! I’m new to the community and I am glad to hear you are doing better and finding efficient ways to make social media work for you! I’m curious to know if you take personal questions or have a service to help us know where we land on the attractiveness scale? I’m having dating troubles and I’m looking to pin down what it is and how to improve!

2024-05-03 11:55:34 +0000 UTCAppreciate the hard work you put in! I think you could scale up your content production and it could become easier. Please reach out to Michael Sartain. I know he had similar issues, and now uploads 40 pieces of content a day across platforms. I'm in his MOA program. He speaks highly of you, and is very willing to help.

2024-05-02 21:57:42 +0000 UTCI was thinking the same thing. Especially, books by Ken Wilber and Integral Theory.
Mike
2024-05-02 21:52:09 +0000 UTCGlad to hear you're doing better. My fav topic are 1. delta hot scenarios (showing examples of people in different areas of the chart and how they're struggling - esp the more extremes) 2. conflict resolution between couples 3. more videos on how the unconscious mind runs the show when you're not aware of it

2024-05-02 21:17:49 +0000 UTCI want your favorite books on every subject! And your favorite studies too. Seeing a hoe math "touch grass" event or fitness challenge would be pretty awesome too!

2024-05-02 20:25:48 +0000 UTCOh! Would love videos on dating with detachment, and meditation. Just as application for reducing anxiety in dating, to keep making better choices as men. There's lots out there, but curious what angles you'd hit these from
Preston
2024-05-02 19:56:13 +0000 UTCYeah just keep delving deep in the weeds with male/female psychology, etc...super curious about polygamy and arranged marriages as a future set of videos if you get time
Preston
2024-05-02 19:51:33 +0000 UTCGlad you're resting. Looking forward to the new content.

2024-05-02 19:34:45 +0000 UTCSummaries of attachment theory especially secure attachment. As there is the idiotic circular reasoning of if you are anxious or avoidant the way to make yourself more securely attached is to find a securely attached person. WTF I am secure attachment style and I am trying to get the anxious and avoidant ones to stay clear and want the other secure attachment people I don’t want to anymore regulate someone else.
