The Chinese are busy copying technology from America whilst Africa is busy copying moral decadence. That right there is the difference between the two races, one focuses on science advancements and the other on nonsense.
Definitely grabbing this one,a huge fan of Robert's books..al of them
Today, after seven years of work, The Law of the Sublime is out in the world.
When I started this book, I had an ambitious plan. I would go down the Amazon, find chimpanzees in the wilds of Africa, and cross the Gobi Desert, then write about those experiences of awe.
Then, on a hot August afternoon in 2018, I had a stroke while driving in Los Angeles. A blood clot cut off oxygen to my brain, and within seconds I lost consciousness. When I woke up in the hospital, I learned how close I had come to the point of no return. My left hand was frozen into a claw, and I could barely feel my left leg, but something strange happened.
On the ambulance ride home, I looked out at the people on the street, and for a moment I felt I could be inside their bodies and hear their thoughts. It was marvelous and weird, and I knew it was time to write this book.
I couldn't type, so I wrote every page by hand, dictated it, printed it out, and edited it all over again. I couldn't take the long hikes that had carried me through my six previous books. Then one afternoon I woke from a nap in my backyard to find a grasshopper inches from my face, and I understood that this small backyard would have to be my Amazon jungle. The lizards, the hummingbirds, the insects became my teachers.
My limits turned out to be a blessing. They forced me to find the Sublime in the simplest things, and that is what this book is about.
Most of us live inside a circle: an everyday consciousness shaped by culture, convention, and, more and more, technology. That circle keeps shrinking, and we grow bored and restless. Just outside it is the Sublime, a realm that is frightening and exciting at once, pulling us out of our comfort zones and opening us to a much wider reality. The book maps 12 points outside that circle, and each one is a different face of the Sublime.
Inside, you'll find stories of near-death encounters, astonishing discoveries, and radical changes of consciousness, along with exercises and meditations so you can feel the Sublime yourself, not just read about it.
The Sublime doesn't require travel or exotic adventures. It only requires a new pair of eyes for the reality all around you.
The Law of the Sublime is available now in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook.
Thank you for your support of my work. I hope you enjoy reading this book, and I look forward to hearing your feedback.
With gratitude,
Robert Greene

Every once and again I see a tweet from an “empowered woman” and I’m reminded I have no business being with them🫠. I want me a soft yebo baba, who’s all smiles and excited when I get home, not ana “why don’t you cook it yourself”.
Luckily, there’s probably a man out there who wants exactly that, and I hope they find each other.

From my DM:
So here's why setting up Two-Step Verification (2FA) on WhatsApp is also not enough to keep hackers out... especially for those who were logged out and regained access.
Scammers can exploit linked account loops to bypass security.
Here is my suggestion on how to further lock down your accounts:
1. Break the SMS Recovery Loop: Make sure the email attached to your WhatsApp 2FA does NOT use your same compromised phone number for password resets. If an attacker intercepts your SMS or phone line, they can reset your email password first, take over your inbox, and then bypass your WhatsApp 2FA!
2. Check Your Chat Backup Destination: Go to Settings > Chats > Chat Backup. If you were recently logged out, verify that an attacker didn't link their email address to your cloud backup. Otherwise, a copy of all your new messages streams directly to them every time your phone backs up.
3. Separate Your Security and Backup Emails: Use one email address for WhatsApp 2FA and a completely different email address for cloud chat backups to prevent a single point of failure.
4. Encrypt Backups with a 64-Digit Key: Go to Settings > Chats > Chat Backup > End-to-End Encrypted Backup and select a 64-digit encryption key instead of a passkey. Passkeys sync via cloud/hardware services, whereas a 64-digit key guarantees that only someone holding that offline key can decrypt your data.
Some extra advice: Remove SMS recovery from your primary security emails and opt for authenticator apps.
The way @econetzimbabwe , @econet_support is ghosting people on th issue of losing their WhatsApp accounts is telling. Like i always say "protest with your pockets, just migrate to NetOne en masse,
Businesses in Zim don't respect customers coz customers tolerate bs.
