Problem-solving is the highest intelligence and the most useful attribute.
Deciphering unknowns into high-success probabilities is thee intelligence. Turning these unknowns into actionable solutions is the most valuable attribute at any time in any place. What is life if it isn’t a never-ending stream of unknowns bumping into our known, personal, and shared world? All the effort in the world is found somewhere on the scale between useless and detrimental when these efforts are pointed in the wrong direction.
How is this done? Let’s look at it a few different ways:
(decoding unknowns) + (discipline to execute) + (intuition & wisdom) = Problem Solving
(Truth) + (Action) + (Timing) = Problem Solving
Problem-solving is triangulating the position of the unknown by using areas of high intelligence, which are turbo-charged by experience and knowledge.
This world is totally connected; everything speaks to everything. The more positions from which you can triangulate the unknown, the more accurate the coordinates. Are certain intelligences more useful depending on the area of the unknown? Of course. Yet, life has taught me that some of the most accurate and important solutions have come from someone triangulating unknowns from high places that buck the system and are counter to the norm.
One of the reasons we are to Be Vast is to pursue our ability to solve problems and, therefore, be useful.
This post is a continuation of the post, Be Vast.
Some links are to readings of the full poem.
There are some lies that we all agree to tell.
As it is everywhere, we collectively agree to ignore what is real; we set ourselves to not just fail but misdiagnose the issue and, therefore, exacerbate the problem with our misplaced solution. In these areas, our reactions and emotions will leap out of us without reason and the croc-brain assurances of militant passthrough thinking.
In these areas, I wish you well. Hold Tension, Be Vast, and Remember, only restoration brings victory.
The prideful in power not only completely misunderstand the side of goodness…
They cannot even begin to comprehend their own positions…
Ultimately, their stumble and then fall from grace is due to their inability to see.
Milk and honey can win most wars.
I am not here to make friends, but to be a friend to truth.
If you first look for friends, you will find groupthink, sold sovereignty, and the feeling of being alone in a crowded room.
If you first look for truth, you will find, perhaps, friendships that move the wheels of time.
Who are you? Do you even know?
What are you doing… are you just watching?
Be.
Then…
Do.
You will do as you are, so be.
Action is the anecdote to inaction.
“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way” - M.A.
You will Become what you do.
Do.
Then…
Be.
Darkness publicly runs from its ambitions.
Darkness always lies.
Darkness also says that Goodness is lying.
So, who is who?
Darkness not only calls Evil, Good, and Good, Evil… it takes the credit for the fruits of Goodness while ascribing the decay of their foolishness to the Good.
There is always a fancy reason for their failures that soothes the unthinking mind.
They act a way, proclaime something different to gain more power, then act that same way again.
It is a cycle repeated time and time again, over and over.
A base level of humility will always expose which one is which.
Remember, everything is obvious.
Every time meta-truths are unclear to you, there is a gap in your brotherly love, humility, and wisdom.
Do Justly, Love Mercy, Be Vast.
We, the people, are the DOMINUS INVICTUS
Every time we feed off of misplaced identity, we put another card on our house built upon sand.
Wins can either be drained by pride or sourced as the foundation for yet another.
When the enemy has been routed, when they are fleeing, this is precisely the time to take ground.
Throw the reserves into the fray. Do not hesitate.
The time to plan was yesterday.
Today, this hour, is the time to go for the pin, the heart of the enemy camp.
Move with what you have today.
There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
- Hamlet
The rot within goodness from which darkness grows is always where humility and forward-thinking are replaced by those gaslighting their gatekeeping as stewardship.

True wisdom gathers the Spartan.
Value rends the mighty.
Leadership comes only from those who the dangerous yearn to follow.
Everything else is a game that is, without a glance, tossed aside, or, without the slightest consideration, ignored.
What is the difference between LGBTQ parades cheering for Kamala and UFC crowds roaring for Trump?
EVERYTHING.
Remember, it is the difficult word that sheaths the sword.
Humility is the cap on Wisdom.
Without appropriately considering our place in the collective we will always miss the most useful outcome.
Humility does not degrade one’s own might or excellence. It fits its gifts into their most life-giving place.
Wisdom lacking Humility is the fall foreshadowed.
With great Humility, Wisdom grows quickly.
Family is who you would die for;
Brotherhood is who you would die with.
If you do not have the latter, it should be your chief goal.
Make Ready.
The degree to which the mind can’t see reality in significant, obvious events is the degree to which there is hatred.
Only hate can so thoroughly blind one to the truth.
Every person in FEB 2025 who can’t see the necessity and goodness of D.O.G.E. has civilization-ending levels of hatred in their hearts.
There are ZERO exceptions.
0 exceptions.
Speaking Powerful Truths to Powerful People often brings a swift and angry response.
Wherever this is not the case, points to the type of relationship that forms empires and conquers all it sets its hands to.
Without Fear or Favor.
Wherever Genius stops first Loving its fellow man, it begins to slip into insanity.
Brotherly love anchors brilliance to stability, usefulness, and goodness.
The more important the moment, the less weak men matter.
When the hour is midnight, weak men are nothing, they are not counted or even considered.
How many loved you moments of glad grace? - Yeats
The Hierarchy of Needs is eternally true.
Where we do not understand the reality around safety it will always be difficult for us to clearly understand anything else.
I’ve done something unique that no one else can or would do. So have you. Spend more time doing things like that.
Live life as yourself extravagantly, offensively, and sometimes violently. Then do it again.
How are things?
The world turns as it does.
And so it goes.
Why are you afraid of being offended? Getting offended shouldn’t offend you more. This cycle ends in the horrors of history.
Offense should lead to either: war, a wall or a bridge.
War is almost never the option. Only when life, liberty, and property are on the line.
When, for us, the wall is most often used, the issue will be found in a reflection.
In most cases, a bridge is the proper response to offense. Seek to understand. Ask questions. Define language. Get to the goal. Start with why, etc.
But when it's War, it should be total war. Destroy to the root and stem. Leave nothing and no one.
Exceptions made to inalienable & civil rights are the poison pill. Always.
Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating Funeral marches to the grave.
In the world’s broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I only come one way.
The way that I am.
All growth must be towards self or it is but dust in the strong winds of life.
Growth in fear is growth away from self, it is a house of cards built upon shifting sands.
Fear built growth is like getting lost and then turning out the lights. The longer you double down, the more senses are lost. Next goes your hearing. You find yourself lost, in the dark, and without the ability to hear. Stay here longer and your loudest cry comes up silent. Eventually there is but utter darkness.
We have long disparaged being self-centered, forgetting that the Greatest truths are held in within the greatest of tensions. Collectively we have told the lie that self is bad, we have all adorned the communal lie that group is best and group must come first. Everything flows from self. Self MUST be first or all is lost. Only after centering life around self might one bring self sacrifice or do a selfless act. Self surrendered guarantees a deep drink of the whims of every charlatan.
The most helpful people will always put self first, the most loving people will always have a centered self, the people you look forward and want to be around will always know, defend and live from who they are.
Live life as yourself, it is not just the door toward every mission, but it is every step along the way.
Love alone restores self, centered self brings everything good rushing back.
Whenever your life feels empty, you are missing you. You have left self behind.
Whenever your soul comes up hollow, keep asking; Who am I?
Defend that answer like those at Helms Deep.
It is all you have and will ever have.
Without it, everything is but a distraction from meaninglessness.
Without it, our efforts are to fill an unending pit, a limitless void.
Without it there is nothing at all.
ONLY SELF FIRST IS TRULY SELFLESS
Be on your guard against those who loudly shout what everyone knows, what everyone likes as if it were some brave new thing.
There is ALWAYS a knife behind their back waiting for you to turn yours.
ALWAYS
100 million hammers,
100 million more,
100 million sickles,
100 million poor,
Starving, fleeing, fainting, reeling,
Murder box car, a murdering tongue,
Solzhenitsyn wrote it in gray.
He wrote it in gray,
He wrote the frame,
Whispers to whispers,
Chains to chains.
Victims covet victims, and God is no more,
The assailant hides where years of snows form,
Unity through uniformity,
The lies come quick,
The failure was grand,
The makeup is thick,
Justice is marred where cocktails abound,
A 30-front war.
No victory is found.
The rules ever-changing,
Common man’s woes,
It’s bullshit, you know it,
The emperor has new clothes.
- SSA
Sovereignty surrendered at scale no matter how good it looks, no matter how many people agree, no matter what evidence is provided, no matter what the studies show, no matter what 97% of the experts say, no matter what is generally accepted, no matter what is known by all, no matter what the teachers say, no matter what the preachers say, no matter what the moms say, no matter what the celebrities say, no matter what the right says, no matter what the left says, no matter what you say, no matter what, no matter what… well, you know.
Humility finds a way to love someone right where they are.
With Goodness, the masses are willing to sacrifice much to help a few.
With Evil, the masses are willing to sacrifice a few for the greater good.
With Goodness the few are willing to sacrifice all to help their fellow man.
With Evil the few save only themselves with no care for their fellow man.
Ultimately Only Strength Sows.
Everything is only possible through might.
Only Strength Provides.
If you can’t see how and where this is true, there is something or someone holding you up.
Find them.
Thank them.
Be Vast like them.
Lend to the rhyme of the poet, the beauty of thy voice
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The fastest way to weakness is needing to be liked.
It always leads away from self.
With each passing day, it is another step away from Nineveh.
