My lifestyle: minimalism
Only minimalism can save you from all this consumerism and capitalism , from all this bullshit. Besides, with minimalism you are always ready to move, ready to face any problem. I mean it as a lifestyle. I have been living like this for years, and this approach has truly proven itself: whether times are extremely…

Believe me.
Something essential in life is learning how to love struggle—problems, conflict, fights. Otherwise, they will overwhelm you. I learned that early, and in my own way, I came to value them. Life has given me a lot of harsh things, honestly, ever since childhood. I’m a full orphan, raised in aggressive Russian ghettos, but I…

Possessions and consumerism
The fewer things I own, the freer and wiser I become. Possessions and consumerism weigh you down more than they improve your life. I’ve tested this many times in practice. That’s why I always get rid of everything unnecessary as much as is practically possible; I become freer, stronger, and lighter.

Adaptive Spirit
People don’t grow poor because of new tech like AI — they grow poor chasing the illusion of stability. Life was never meant to be stable. We were made to adapt, to face change. The more the world shifts, the more flexible you have to be. Minimalism, stoicism, the readiness to lose everything — and…

Information Revolution
The Industrial Revolution ended with two world wars. We now face a more complex and dense revolution: the Information Revolution. Everything will change drastically and quickly, inevitably with some casualties. Effective strategies for today – stoicism and minimalism.

What could be better than money
What could be better than money? Be above money. And better through experienced feelings of wisdom mixed with minimalism and stoicism, not by crushing heads trying get lucky and therefore rich (capitalism system). Fortune and luck are sorts of random; never truly yours; that luck actually can put lots of crap on your style. I…

Wealth and will
“Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.” Unfortunately seems to be too idealistic. How about will, motivation, stimulus? The complexity, the variety. I think, let it be, and let it filter out itself.

We’re all gonna die someday
In the end, death makes us all the same. At this point in time, under the given conventions of our development, death is a good thing. I realize we are still limited as a species, as minds, and in spite of having the capacity for higher intelligence, we are still primitive, and most of us…

The nature of the mind to distribute information in its own way
Very often, when the mind is strongly fixated or obsessing on something, if you look from the outside – it is important for the mind to latch on to the reflection of the phenomenon, not so much on reality as to arrange the entities inside itself in a certain order. Apparently here the mind and…

My experience
Eat small portions. Work smart, not hard. Work everyday, whenever possible. Enjoy real rest like sleeping or sport when tired working. Consume less. Boycott crap products whenever possible. Spent more energy on quality work and ruthlessly cut unnecessary. Gentle your tone. Talk, walk softly. Take your time, you don’t know and can’t know what will…

The horizon
The horizon of events in the world… It’s as if we can’t see, as if we were moving on a ball, we can’t clearly see what will be and what was behind… All blue and obscurity. As it is, so it is. Do what you have to do and let it be, сome what may.…

Impermanence
Be ready to lose everything. Nothing physical truly belongs to us; it’s all just temporary rent. Only your mind and your time are yours
