Blood & Ink: Train Everything.

Now is the time.

In the words of the late great Terence McKenna, from his classic Exponential Weirdness rant:

“I look for: the invention of artificial life, the cloning of human beings, possible contact with extraterrestrials, possible human immortality, and at the same time appalling acts of brutality and genocide, race-baiting, homophobia, famine/starvation – because the systems that are in place to keep the world sane, are utterly inadequate to the forces that have been unleashed.”

You feel it.

It’s happening faster, more chaotically, with greater impact. The feedback cycle is compressed into mere minutes instead of months.

You sense an intense undercurrent beneath and within all aspects of the cultural zeitgeist. Pandora’s Box is open. As much as you might desire a ‘RETVRN’ to simpler pre-technological times, the arc of time marches only forward in this Earthly domain.

The only way out is through.

The only question that matters is who will you be? Your time has come. The time to train everything.

Now is the time for high agency, fierce vitality, strong community, courageous action, sovereign wealth, loving heart, rapid skill acquisition, wisdom cultivation, aesthetic sensitivity, relationship building, family growing.

Train EVERYTHING.

Strength, flexibility, humour, insight, critical thinking, beauty, honour, focus, fertility, connection, depth, mastery, posture, breath, perspective, compassion, joy, resilience, reliability, determination.

Get IN the game. Don’t sit on the sidelines. Don’t pull yourself out.

The best of us need the best of us to show up at the table. That is the only way humanity has ever figured anything out. TOGETHER.

Raise the bar for yourself. Set a better baseline. Lift everyone else up to it.

“When death comes, make sure he finds you alive.”

Train everything,
