And to me, it really shows that we humans, we don't want to die. Desperately, we do not want to die. And we want to try to address this omnipresent concern of what exists after life, what is death. And so I try to be very sober-minded to say, I don't know, and no human knows. Therefore, the thing I value most is that existence is the highest virtue. Whereas before...

Be when death is always inevitable, you just naturally soothe yourself with these stories. And what I'm saying now is like, actually, we might be able to do something about this that we never could before. And therefore, we can have a reimagination of what existence truly is.

It's like, if you tell, like, let's just take an entrepreneur and say like, if you like show up to do this thing and you're just present and do like some minimal amount of work, you're going to become a billionaire, right? Like, that's the prize. But in reality, you have to be an entrepreneur to defy all odds and work a crazy amount to achieve some level of success.

And I feel like the death narrative that we have as a species is kind of the same as like, you get this afterlife with this minimal set of effort. And so basically, it sacks people of inviting them to work hard for existence because it's already guaranteed. And so to me, it has this really negative consequence where it's like, oh, taken care of. Therefore, you can have poor health habits.

You can risk your life. You can do these things. So I think we're really on this bigger timescale. We're wrapped up in this moment where our... We should be working a lot harder and care a lot more about our existence, about the planet's health, about our kids' health, about societal's health.

And we're lackadaisical because we have some sort of idea that somehow in the afterlife, things are sorted. So I think it really weakens us as a species.

we have much more in common than we do differences. So a lot of people immediately jump to, they'll see my protocol and they'll say, well, certainly there has to be personalizations that are done from you versus me or whatever. And I would draw their attention back to say, we have much more in common than you think.

Instead of saying what are the major commonalities, they immediately go to differences. And so what we have in common is sleep works great for men and women. And eating vegetables, also great for men and women. And again, you can look at the data. Exercise, great. And so there's nuances on the exercise of around a woman's cycle.

So yes, there's nuances, but generally speaking, the basics of life health practices are good for both males and females. And so then the nuances like you, I have a protocol I've published publicly. There's nuances of a woman's cycle, what to do around that for both food and exercise. So yeah, those are details I've listed out.

But generally speaking, the benefits are in the power laws of health and wellness, of getting the basics right and less so the tail things which people focus on. Yeah.
