Youtube Vs Real Life Wisdom Are Young Mentors Enough

We got to become wise enough to figure that out and wise enough to understand, yeah, if I'm trying to figure out how to replace a bumper on my car, I can go to YouTube. But if I want to figure out how to find a wife, I should probably talk to somebody who's done it well. Right. Yeah. No, you're right about that. I saw a meme. And again, we can't be driven by memes. We have to be more rigorous than that. But basically it said, you know, basically it was suggesting that you should have a mentor who's in their 20s. And you know, what do we think about that? It's like, well, okay, you know, maybe in a very specific siloed area that you're trying to improve upon, you know, maybe, you know, like, Hey, I'd like to learn coding so I can unlock the power of the computer and everything. But in terms of life, I can't take that concept seriously. Like you've not had anybody you love die, you know, or if it was, it was an elder person. You've not had your best friend come and have to live on your couch because their life was exploded by life. All of these things, these tragedies you have to go through to go, I don't know the first thing about anything. I'm just going to do my best. This person is trying to do that. I mean, how many people think that everybody is, for the most part, trying to do their best? And that's a lesson of experience. So we get these things where these concepts of only young people are smart and adaptable. I'll take you and I right now, you, I, we don't have to do, we don't have to even worry about it. You, you know, and I know that if we went to a combat zone, an exceptionally dangerous place, you were going to do your side thing. I was going to do my spy thing. And we brought some 21 year old kid with whatever skills they had. You wouldn't be worried about me. I wouldn't be worried about you. We'd be worried about that kid and their ability to, to be wise enough to be adaptable enough to, to deal with the hard ass shit that you have to deal with. Yeah. Yeah. And we talk about the, about younger people being, they're so pliable. They, they, they're so pliable. Well, pliable and resiliency sometimes aren't the same thing, you know, and I don't see the resiliency, at least I don't see it in the way that I've seen it in the past. And it could be, it could be, it could just be me, but, you know, obviously things are going to change. The biggest, the things I see right now, like, okay, how do we fix some of the Because if we don't change this trajectory, we're going to really be in the matrix. I mean, it's going to be it's never going to change. So I bet it does. It will change because people are going to get wise and they're going to understand how they're being manipulated. And then they're going to work that into their conscious mind and be able to sort things out. I just think it's going to take time. And first thing, like you said, you have to identify the problem. And right now, most people by and large have not identified this as a problem. One of the other problems is we want to take on all of these problems. BLM is a great example. I'm going to get emotional, I'm going to get upset about it, I'm going to argue about it. Yeah, but do you actually care? Do Black lives actually matter to you? Will you take the time to actually know who Dylan Noble is? Well, who's Dylan Noble? Well, there we go. If Black lives matter, if this cop scenario is true, you should know who Dylan Noble is because it creates problems for the argument, right? And it's okay to say, I just, I know there was suffering in Syria and I have empathy for that, but I just don't have the time to deal with it, you know, or I care that there are wildfires all over California, but what am I going to do about it? I live in Iowa. I empathize, but I have no energy for that problem. And it's okay to say that.
