I don’t agree. As an USAF Vet, when one has something to lose you play smarter and dying to protect those values is not fearful in any way. In a nano second you stay on point and defeat the enemy and if I’m hit and gone the guys behind me will finish the job. No warning no remorse when you’re protecting freedom.

@@FlowtnWitWalden thanks. Yes. It seems almost sinister the way he talks about it. He might be talking about narcissist types or something.

I also fear he is talking about me. The basically to a T described me. I procrastinate but am exactly as described. Ambitious yet lazy. Unable to execute on even the smallest things. Unable to move forward. Everyone around me succeeding

[@brightpage1020]

@@asianboyyy117 I bet it's not as bad as you think. If you're able to evaluate it, you can change it. I started doing things a little different after taking this in, making small changes to be more considerate and compassionate, more responsible, and I'm seeing visible changes in my life so far. Positive ones that even my husband has noticed. Just taking stock can be a turning point for better. You don't have to completely overhaul your life or personality. For instance, I have ADHD which a lot of folks think is just an excuse for bad behavior, but it actually affects the executive functioning of the brain. For the last 8 years I wouldn't take anything for it because I was either pregnant or nursing and didn't want that risk for babies, and I was able to get by, but barely, and with some big time management challenges, currently resolving. I'm not generally big on meds but trying to manage my own schedule, husband's, plus that of 4 kids, and include communications with extended family, etc. It turns out running a family is full of executive management skills, (plus being a dishmaid and laundry goddess). The ADHD definitely contributes, as does having so many very young kids. 2 are toddler boys, potty training. 2. It's literally a monkey house. You should see my youngest pitch... I know that for me, the ADHD's a big part of why my mouth goes one way sometimes and my feet can't follow up. And I see how hurtful that can come across, even though that's never my intent. So, I constantly work on this and will soon be considering meds now that the many factory at our house is closed. I have heard they can really help improve things and I owe it to those around me to try whatever I can that might help. Recently, I learned about 10 - 20 minute changes I can implement into my daily routines at intervals. Working on myself to improve in short bursts of manageable project time has helped me stay consistent where I was making these massive efforts that would exhaust me to boredom and give up by day 3, or get interrupted in the thick of it. So, I'm finding the smaller changes tend to be more lasting (so far, at least I made it to Day 5 of a habit challenge I'd previously never been able to get past day 2 or 3, so improvement noted even though I still have long ways to go before meeting my goal with it. At least this way I can keep on the right roads for longer without giving up, giving in, or feeling hopeless.) Stay in the game. I think that's the secret. When you fall off a horse, the faster you get back up anytime you get thrown will show that animal what you are made of. The longer you stay in the sand, the harder it is to recover, and you run the risk of him sighing through his lips with a nod to wander off, like "yeah, that's what I thought." Get back up before he realizes you hit the ground. He may never know the difference. Just keep at it and keep improving at your own pace. If it doesn't work for others, let that be their problem, not yours.

Explain underworld and state to me

[@sebastianm.d.6840]

​@@Bren9989 Let's see, both are social organizations which follow (roughly) the same set of laws, the only difference being that (in first world countries) the underworld is included in the state whereas everywhere else it's (mostly) the other way around (with some degree of enmeshment in second world countries). Both have functional economies that rely on some form of exploitation (overly high taxes in first world countries (state), "protection" fees (underworld). Modus operandi in both the state and the underworld. Both have a set of laws at their core which ensures their continued existence. Their underlying aim is to exhort as much revenue (either money, goods or services) from the bulk of their members as possible (whilst keeping a standard of living high enough not encourage an uprising or coup). The most visible difference between the two is their reaction to a member deviating from said laws. The state tends to be more lenient; not paying taxes for, say, an year or longer can earn you a hefty fine or even jail, whilst not paying the mob their due, can get you to spend the rest of your days on the bottom of a lake with a rock tied around your neck. In first world countries the state is much stronger (in terms of available manpower, firepower, influence) than the underworld (which often has to skulk in the shadows, preying on the bottom 40% of society). In third world countries the cartel runs the state either overtly or covertly (it doesn't really make a difference since they also control the media (everything is fine)). Needless to say, the state in third world countries is weak, can at most muster up people with minimal or no military training and arm them with soviet era weaponry (AK-47s, RPG-7s, etc.). While effective against regular people wanting to get by, they're unlikely to be any match for any vetted unit (e.g. Spetsnaz, Seals, Delta Force), which brings us to the next point: First world countries operate by the same principles the underworld does towards regular people, to third world countries.

Elaborating on Pat's wise words - The intuition is simple, when you get higher enough you begin to see the diviser between the great and the average is work rate. As Pat explains, these AL people are talented, they have the brains, they even have the connections, they have the vision, they have the plan - but what they don't know is that they really do not want to actually put the work in! They want to see movies, they want to have breakfast, they want holiday,etc. This makes them lazy by not having a high work rate, they put 7+ hours and then procrastinate, which is an easy way to get left behind. So why should AL people not be made enemies? You ignite the burning desire, you give them a shock of their reality - being their visionary desires will never be fulfilled, you embarrass them internally. Now these people become less lazy and put much more work in, and will come relentlessly at you. The other factor, would be AL people are not rare once you have reached a certain level of success, they actually make the numbers. Hence, you will have a mob of newly adjusted perceptions of hard work, the brains and other things, coming at you.

You forgot about people who have less to lose than you. I was talking with a few millionaires who are into architect and real estate. They were like sometimes you need to take risks based on how much you will lose vs how much they will lose if things get violent.

[@denib1326]

One could argue that by having much to lose it can only motivate one to work harder and get less exposed to attacks. Also, would you agree to say one who has less to lose can also be fooled easier?

[@Envengerx]

@@denib1326 well i dont mean attack in business sense but in physical sense like putting cheap assassins on your or threaten you pr your family. People kill each other for 100 bucks in the heat of the moment especially if they dont have that much(nothing to lose). Generally doesnt happen in software domain but in case of things like realestate etc where goverment, bribery and locals are concerned, its always better to be careful and stay away.

“If you want to make everyone happy, don’t be a leader- sell ice cream.” - Steve Jobs

[@improvingman6866]

I love that quote. I came for the video but read this and now I realise what life is all about.

[@didafm]

Stupid quote. Because the person who wants to be succsful but make everyone happy maybe shouldn't be a leader. But that person almost certainly won't settle to sell ice cream. You can have many other jobs that pay well and can make most people happy

No, you don't get it! Think harder? Please.

So glad Patrick went on the Adam Stokes channel. Great info there! The interview with the Skycoin guy was fascinating beyond belief, not just about the technology and project, but geo-politics and global financial situation as well.

[@boyjoja]

Your last comment was laudable about "the most dangerous enemy is one who has ambition but indolent". All those years I'd lived to conduct my business in the communist environment, thereby I'd learned that all Communist officers from high ranking level to the lowest in the system bearing heavyweight of greed and laziness aptitude concealed in great Communist's pride... The most dangerous enemy of mankind is one who blinded in Communist dogma.

Thanks PBD, you’re dropping g some real truth.

[@samshik4200]

I have struggled with this in every business I’ve ever been in or any entity I’ve gotten myself involved with. After my third business as a young entrepreneur I came up with the word to deal with not feeling bad for the other person because.....i move forward with my life and that word was and is still is....-Inferiority complex-. I worked on that pattern and vision. I learn how to speak better and engage with the person on the same level the lower level because I see prospects in that person or in their endeavors on their path and in their life. Mr.Patrick David thank you for your time and knowledge brother thank you.

[@A_Brion]

This is spot on and have dealt with the last people myself. Didn't even know them but they simply hated my guts because I was successful at the same thing they were trying to be successful at but they weren't putting in the work. Yet on their social media they have ego and always talking and wishing about vacations and nice things but they don't make any money lol

The nastiest thing about enemies in business is that they can use POS lawmakers to write laws to put you out of business because contrary to popular opinion we don't live in great country.

[@onikedagreat]

I can relate with that last statement .. I just ignore them and focus on my work

[@DaddyBLUE90S]

The biggest take away was the royal family explanation. Never saw that whole story but Pat just explained it to me perfectly. I still don't understand why the worst enemy is the ambitious but lazy people.. I know a few of those.

[@ExtraordinaryLiving]

Yea, same here ... I don't understand the worst enemy to self part--I don't get why such type of person (the lazy ambitious type) could be dangerous to me. Reading the comments to gain more insight hasn't help; a lot of them don't make sense to me ... I don't know why ... it is like they are unrelatable.

[@FlowtnWitWalden]

@@ExtraordinaryLiving Let me have a go at it. A criminal is highly ambitious; but doesn't want to put in the effort to earn an honest wage. So he robs a bank. An associate is highly ambitious; but doesn't want to put in the work; So (similar to the criminal in lack of ethics/morals) he'll think nothing of taking credit for work you've done, find it acceptable to lie to clients, be okay with fudging a few numbers in the accounting books, etc. Frank Zappa might have described them in his song, "Flakes."

[@BIGGELATO]

​@@FlowtnWitWalden 3 years late to the comment, but leaving one regardless how you feel about it. Criminals do crimes because they don't know anything more than survival basics. First-person perspective. Which is similar to an animal to seek food, water, and shelter through any means necessary. And this can easily play with ones' emotions and cause extreme fluctuations with their egos; extreme pride or extreme fear. And if these people are completely illiterate to the workings of psychology and behavior, they'll remain blind and act through ego, and do bad things.

[@BIGGELATO]

"What he meant was don’t push and agitate a lazy ambitious person to the point where his laziness vaporizes because you hit them with a nerve, they will become obsessed with beating you" - From another comment.

I'm missing the WHY you don't want to make enemies of lazy ambitious people? They'll finally work hard and come after you?

Not at all. They never will. BUT. They the most capable of jealousy. Really bad jealousy. And jealousy is always near villainy.

David’s comments speak to my experience with such people. Imagine the horror of keeping your enemies close yet they still manage to thwart success! This happened to me in my first outing as a manager. Meant well to all employees yet due to these “snakes” as I and many people would call them, I legit lost that first managing gig. I’ve learned allot from it and thank God I did as I never realized how sadistic your fellow humans can be.

In their mind they're ambitious, but deep down inside they don't want to put in the work." ~ Patrick Bet-David Especially when this was said (feel like they're somewhat linked) in the beginning...
