Pickaxe. Today we're going to talk about how to make life easy. Now, if you're listening to this, your first reaction to that is probably this is ridiculous, right? This guy is telling me that there is a way to make life easy. And how do we naturally respond to that? We say that this person does not understand my life. This person may think life is easy, but that's because their life is easy. Some people out there have easy lives if they have money, if they have power, if they have security, and then there are people out there who have hard lives. And it's no use for people who have easy lives to tell people have hard lives. It's possible to make your life easy. So when we have this kind of reaction to this statement, hey, it's possible to make your life easy, what do you think that actually does? The first thing that it does is if someone has actually figured out how to make life easy, we end up muzzling them. We end up canceling them because you're not allowed to say that. And if we live in a society where people who have figured out how to make life easy can't talk about it, what does that mean for the rest of us? That means that the rest of us will continue to live hard lives because the people who have figured out were canceling in the first place. And the most bizarre thing is that one of the reasons that life has become harder and harder and harder is because we've started to rely on science more and more and more. And the more we rely on science, the harder life becomes. And this may sound really confusing because it doesn't make a lot of our lives better, it's very easy, I can get food delivered to my door, I can get grocery delivery, I can work online. Science makes my life easy in so many different ways.
