What is the Point of Life?

The question, "What is the point of life?" has been a perennial pursuit in the minds of philosophers, theologians, and thinkers throughout history. Many assert that this profound question is unanswerable, a mystery too deep for human comprehension. However, I beg to differ. I believe that not only does this question have an answer, but the answer has been subtly evident all around us—in nature, in space, and perhaps in the grand design of a higher power, if one exists.

The essence of life, as I perceive it, is not a multifaceted riddle but a singular truth, often overlooked or dismissed due to its simplicity. It's an answer we see reflected in the cosmos, in the wild, and within ourselves, yet often choose to ignore.

The singular point of life, I propose, is this: to improve one aspect of your fellow beings. Yes, that's it. Our purpose is to solve problems, to aid in the expansion and advancement of our kind, to contribute positively to the collective existence of our species.

Why do I believe this to be the universal answer? Because I see this theme of enhancement and expansion everywhere. It's not about individual happiness, adventure, or personal fulfillment—though these are beautiful parts of life. The core, the very essence of life, is about progress, moving forward, and growth.

Consider the trees: from a mere seed, their entire existence revolves around expanding their roots, spreading their branches. Look up at the cosmos: the universe itself is constantly expanding. This principle of expansion and growth is fundamental to existence, and for humans, our unique attribute in this process is our intelligence, our capacity to think, create, and improve.

We are not just here to reproduce and populate but to harness our incredible cognitive abilities for the betterment of our kind. Our intelligence, our ability to solve complex problems and innovate, is what distinguishes us.

Another perspective to consider is that of a hunter-gatherer. Any answer to the question of life's purpose should be universally applicable—not just to modern humans but to our ancestors and all forms of life. The principle of enhancing and aiding our kind should resonate across all eras, species, and entities.

In conclusion, the point of life, as I see it, is a collective journey of advancement and enhancement. It's about contributing positively to the world around us, solving problems, and expanding our reach and capabilities, just as the universe expands, just as a seed grows into a mighty tree. It's a simple answer, but within its simplicity lies the profound truth of our existence.

I believe I can expand on this idea. This is the simplest, and I think the only, answer to life, the universe, and everything.

Selling online courses doesn’t make you an entrepreneur

Okay, let's have a real talk for a moment. You've seen them on YouTube, right? Those so-called 'entrepreneurs' who are all about flashing their Lamborghinis and hanging out with hot girls. Some of them are just trying to sell you these get-rich-quick courses that, honestly, rarely ever work. But here's the thing, and it's something I feel strongly about: selling online courses? That doesn't automatically make you an entrepreneur. It makes you an online teacher. And there's a big difference between the two. Why do I think so? Well, let me break it down for you. 1. The Definition! Why don't we take a moment to see what the dictionary has to say about the word 'entrepreneur'? I'm curious to see how it lines up with what we've been seeing . "A person who sets up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit" . Let's think about this for a second - where's the risk in all of this? Since when di...
