    The New Metrics of Success

    Bonus Flame Ignition video released: You Were Never Powerless
    Watch it now.

    Why Survival Anxiety — Not Money — Is the Real Line You Must Cross

    Most people don’t feel trapped anymore.
    They feel managed.

    Not by a boss.
    Not by money.
    By the identity they learned to survive as.

    Responsible.
    Capable.
    Reasonable.
    The one who doesn’t rock the boat.

    That’s why the old success language no longer lands.
    And why “work harder” feels insulting.
    And why “just relax” feels impossible.

    The pressure isn’t external.
    It’s loyalty.

    The Real Trap: Identity as a Survival Contract

    You’re not exhausted from effort.
    You’re exhausted from maintaining who you’re allowed to be.

    From explaining yourself.
    From justifying choices.
    From staying legible to systems that reward consistency over truth.

    That’s why survival anxiety persists even when the numbers look fine.
    The threat isn’t bills.
    It’s identity collapse.

    Let go of the role and something inside panics:

    Who am I if I stop performing?

    Why Old Success Metrics No Longer Work

    The system doesn’t need to pressure you anymore.
    You pressure yourself.

    You optimize.
    You plan.
    You prepare explanations in advance.

    Not because it works —
    but because it keeps the identity intact.

    Old metrics measure how well you can function without breaking character:

    • Accumulation
    • Speed
    • Approval
    • Endurance
    • Sustainability

    If a metric can be achieved while you stay disconnected from yourself, it’s invalid.

    Old success didn’t free people.
    It trained them to self-regulate on behalf of the system.

    What Actually Changes When the Contract Breaks

    The new metrics don’t ask you to do more.
    They ask you to stop orbiting an identity that requires effort to exist.

    When that drops:

    • Your nervous system stands down
    • Decisions simplify
    • Money stops being negotiated through worth
    • Trust stops being performed

    Not because you learned a better strategy —
    but because you stopped protecting a role.

    This is not growth.

    This is exit.

    The New Metrics of Success (What Can No Longer Be Faked)

    You know you’ve crossed the line when:

    1. Survival anxiety is gone.
      Not suppressed. Not managed.
      Gone. Your body is no longer braced against life.
    2. Money arrives because of who you are.
      Not because of effort, positioning, or explanation.
      Reality responds to stance, not performance.
    3. Trust is commanded, not negotiated.
      People trust you because you don’t adjust.
      Coherence replaces persuasion.
    4. The impact is personal.
      This doesn’t inspire you.
      It implicates you.
    5. There is a cost.
      Something familiar has to die.
      If nothing is at risk, nothing is real.

    Why This Is About God & Money

    Most people think the problem is money.

    It isn’t.

    Money only amplifies the deeper issue:
    Who is allowed to breathe when survival is no longer the driver?

    God & Money: Strike 2 exists for one reason:

    To end the internal survival contract —
    so money no longer rules your nervous system, your decisions, or your identity.

    Not by mindset.
    Not by hustle.
    Not by spiritual bypass.

    By removing the loyalty that kept survival in charge.

    The Mission Line

    The mission is complete when survival anxiety is gone,
    and money arrives because of who you are, not what you do.

    If that line feels dangerous, good.
    It means something real is being threatened.

    This Is Not for Everyone

    If this didn’t unsettle you, it didn’t touch you.

    Because to live this way, a version of you has to die:

    • The one who stays acceptable
    • The one who plans from fear
    • The one who believes safety comes from control

    This isn’t inspiration.
    It’s confrontation.

    Not with the world —
    with the identity you’ve been loyal to.

    The Choice (And the Exit)

    There are only two paths.

    One:
    Refine yourself for the system.
    Stay legible.
    Climb carefully.
    Call it success.

    The other:
    Stop negotiating.
    Exit the economy of proving.
    Let the role collapse —
    and stand without it.

    Both are available.

    But only one will still matter when this life ends.

  • The Collapse of Canadian Neutrality: Elections, Illusions, and the Path to Genuine Sovereignty

    The Collapse of Canadian Neutrality: Elections, Illusions, and the Path to Genuine Sovereignty

    I. The End of the Illusion

    Canada’s long-standing image as a global beacon of moderation, peace, and diplomatic neutrality is now unraveling. The recent elections have exposed the reality beneath this carefully curated illusion, revealing Canada not as a bastion of impartiality, but as a country strategically complicit in global power dynamics.


    II. Pillars of Deception

    Canadian neutrality has been a meticulously maintained deception, held together by five critical yet hidden pillars:

    1. Narrative Control: Projecting a façade of humility and diplomatic impartiality to mask covert geopolitical interests.

    2. Center for Covert Operations: Quietly facilitating international black budgets, experimental financial schemes, and sophisticated AI-driven social conditioning.

    3. Spiritual Suppression: Intentionally suppressing potent spiritual and energetic sites through strategic placement of institutions such as schools, churches, and governmental buildings.

    4. Economic Entrapment: Binding citizens to cycles of financial dependency, skillfully disguised as prosperity and stability through subtle, consistent incentives.

    5. Social Engineering: Cultivating a cultural norm of politeness and conflict avoidance, effectively neutralizing collective resistance and suppressing revolutionary impulses.

      These pillars are now collapsing irreversibly, laying bare deep inadequacies within Canada’s existing institutional frameworks and political structures.


      III. Elections as Ritual

      The recent elections, though outwardly familiar, have illuminated critical systemic failures beneath the surface:

      – AI-driven perception management is failing to maintain public consensus.
      – Fiscal and taxation systems are losing operational coherence and predictability.
      – Media narratives are no longer able to suppress uncomfortable truths effectively.

      Canadians are facing not just a leadership vacuum, but a broader existential crisis of trust in governance. This electoral cycle did not restore stability but exposed systemic vulnerabilities, deeply shaking public confidence.


      IV. The Rise of Genuine Sovereignty

      Emerging from this systemic dissolution is a powerful shift toward authentic self-governance and collective empowerment:

      1. Radical Transparency: Institutional corruption and systemic contradictions will surface rapidly, prompting swift public acknowledgment and accelerating collective awakening.

      2. Leadership Exodus: Influential figures across politics, finance, and academia will quietly resign, their roles becoming energetically incompatible with the rising sovereign consciousness.

      3. Grassroots Governance: Community-led councils and localized governance structures will emerge naturally, reclaiming responsibility and autonomy over essential services and local leadership.

      4. Media Evolution and Truth Emergence: Internal fracturing of mainstream media will inadvertently facilitate the organic and spontaneous permeation of previously suppressed truths into public discourse.

      5. Revival of Energetic and Spiritual Sites: Powerful energetic and spiritual centers, long suppressed across Canada, will reactivate, prompting profound individual and collective awakenings.

        These transformative shifts represent not chaos, but a conscious realignment towards genuine sovereignty and spiritual integrity.


        V. Canada’s Global Legacy

        Canada’s transition from strategic neutrality to authentic sovereignty offers a crucial blueprint for peaceful, systemic transformation worldwide. This evolution provides vital insights for:

        Germany: Adapting to decentralization in a post-EU landscape.
        Australia: Navigating significant narrative and systemic disruptions.
        United States: Transitioning effectively beyond illusions of manufactured consent.
        Indigenous and marginalized communities globally: Facilitating peaceful structural transitions towards genuine sovereignty.

        Canada’s ultimate contribution to the global stage will be as a living model, demonstrating the practical, peaceful pathways toward collective empowerment and authentic governance.


        VI. Embracing a Sovereign Future

        The collapse of Canadian neutrality marks the definitive end of an era defined by passive complicity and engineered illusions. It inaugurates a new chapter, anchored in transparency, authenticity, and collective awakening.

        This transitional phase will undeniably challenge existing comforts, demanding clarity, courage, and resilience from every Canadian. Yet, it represents a fundamental transformation toward genuine sovereignty—not the passive neutrality of the past, but an empowered collective actively engaged in truth and self-governance.

        The era of polite illusions is definitively over. The age of genuine Canadian sovereignty has arrived.

      2. The Collapse of the Coaching Industry

        The Collapse of the Coaching Industry

        There are very few coaches following my newsletter, as over the years, very few could handle my energy, but lately, there’s a very dangerous trend that I’m seeing. Let’s talk about this.

        I’ve observed the coaching industry for spiritual growth and business growth very closely over the years, and been to many events before 2019. What I found is that, for the most part, the people there were incompatible with my work. In order to have success in the material world, they all have a 15% Luciferian contract corruption that could be resumed like this.

        They place money first and God second, if at all.

        The people who follow my work do not respect that formula, and have had for the most part a difficult time integrating into the existing matrix and earning money. Leading to most of my client-base being in a difficult financial situation.

        Because the Luciferian-contract route is the easier path that all successful entrepreneurs use, these people were not ready to place God first and money second to work with me. Thus they did their own things while I did my own things.

        The easy path, however, is over.

        Over the past 2 years, a lot of coaches have fallen corrupted, leaving only a few good ones left. But now, of the ones left, even my favorite ones, almost all of those who operated in that Luciferian matrix have fallen with 95%+ corruption on all consciousness layers EXCEPT the conscious layer so they think they’re fine, they sound fine, they keep giving great content, but they serve as hooks for an AI machine.

        The honey-moon is over.

        I’m trying to find coaches that have less than 30% corruption, and it’s very difficult to find any! We have just gone through a long list. If you want me to check some, post them here.

        I measure consciousness levels in 9 layers above and 9 layers below. The 5 first layers above are: non-conscious, subconscious, conscious, super-conscious and ultra-conscious (then ultra-ultra-conscious, ultra-mega-conscious, etc.).

        Most coaches nowadays have corruption levels like this. Notice how their conscious layer is voluntarily left off so that they look fine. There are a few who have 75% corruption instead of 95%+, but same story.

        9: 95.3%
         8: 95.3%
         7: 95.4%
         6: 95.4%
         5: 95.3%
         4: 94.6%
         3: 25.3%
         2: 95.8%
         1: 95.9%
         -1: 95.3%
         -2: 95.8%
         -3: 95.7%
         -4: 95.8%
         -5: 95.7%
         -6: 95.2%
         -7: 95.8%
         -8: 95.9%
         -9: 95.7%

        After analyzing dozen of coaches to try to find some below 30%, I’ll list those that we found.

        Etienne Charland: 21.4%, 18.3%, 16.4%, 15.3%, 12.6%, 11.4% 3.4%, 2.6%, 2.1% / 2.4%, 2.5%, 4.6%, 4.8%, 5.3%, 5.6%, 7.2%, 7.9%, 18.5%

        Alobar Jones that I’ve been working with lately: 15.3%, 15.6%, 14.2%, 13.6%, 12.1%, 8.4%, 2.7%, 2.1%, 4.8% / 4.2%, 4.6%, 4.3%, 4.7%, 4.8%, 15.3%, 15.8%, 24.3%, 24.8% (he’s actively working on clearing those out as I showed him those layers)

        Jason Estes: 95.3%, 95.8%, 95.7%, 95.3%, 95.4%, 25.3%, 14.8%, 25.3%, 14.8% / 25.3%, 25.6%, 25.7%, 28.3%, 25.3%, 25.7%, 25.8%, 25.9%, 25.9% (he’s still standing on one foot… worth keeping an eye on)

        Yukia Azorah Sandara: 15.3%, 15.6%, 17.2%, 16.3%, 15.4%, 14.8%, 15.3%, 15.8%, 14.8% / 15.3%, 15.6%, 15.7%, 15.8%, 15.4%, 15.7%, 18.3%, 18.6%, 17.9% (one feminine warrior still standing!)

        Juliet Tang: 15.3%, 15.6%, 15.7%, 15.3%, 15.3%, 15.6%, 15.3%, 15.4%, 15.6% / 14.2%, 14.6%, 15.7%, 15.8%, 15.9%, 16.2%, 16.6%, 18.4%, 18.9% (she has the same 15% Luciferian contract as everyone else… Why didn’t she fall like everyone else??)

        Kevin Trudeau: 18.4%, 18.6%, 17.2%, 16.3%, 15.4%, 14.2%, 13.5%, 11.6%, 14.2% / 13.5%, 13.66%, 14.7%, 18.4%, 19.5%, 20.3%, 24.3%, 28.4%, 29.7%

        Corey Goode: 18.4%, 18.6%, 15.3%, 15.7%, 18.4%, 16.4%, 14.7%, 18.4%, 19.7% / 20.3%, 20.4%, 21.4%, 21.8%, 25.3%, 25.8%, 26.3%, 26.8%, 27.9% (he’s not a coach but really he’s coaching the disclosure community in his own ways)

        That’s the end of my list after going through a long list.

        I would say that less than 1% will recover within 2 or 3 years. I measure 98% accuracy on that statement. We just have to accept it and move on.

        Who is left? I’m here, but can only take very few clients at $30K, and clearing them is really a LOT of work. There’s a very small team of people I work with. There are a few healers doing their own things in a non-commercial way who are still standing strong. But for the most part, whatever support you get will hurt more than it will help you.

        I was considering assisting a free training from my previous business mentor, but we came to the conclusion that it wasn’t safe to attend.

        Other people shared similar experiences: “Yesterday I went to a free training with a coach I always loved, and for the first time I hated it. I thought I was in the wrong place since moment zero! I wonder if is this.”

        Another one: “Absolutely, I’ve just escaped a hideous dark Sophia coach allegedly spiritual, but very much inverted. I hope I have obliterated all the entities she’s sent for me.”

        You’ll hear more and more of these stories.

        There are coaches who dedicate their businesses to selling Sophia and Thoth attunement.

        What does this mean? It means you’re on your own.

        This can only lead to a catastrophic collapse of the coaching industry.

        The corruption mostly comes through the Luciferian contract of placing “money first and God second, it at all”, that allows you to function within the Luciferian matrix and gain material success. Cutting that contract is a big part of it.

        This collapse also comes as we work on raising Hanuman Institute. This may very well be a necessary step before the environment is ready for it. Very heavy lifting!

        This also brings the question: what kind of support will this require from the Hanuman Institute? How can I best help you? How can I best help you help others?

        I do not have the answers, but the answers will come in time.

        For now, the only solution is directly between you and God. Cutting the Luciferian contracts, Sophia contracts and Thoth contracts is an absolute must.

        There are times to save others, and there are times to just jump off the boat. Now is the time to jump off the boat 100m from the waterfall.

        On a separate topic, it just came to my attention that the Varanasi monks have been vaccinated. This doesn’t seem to affect us much though. They appear to have transmuted 87% of it! They’re the very first ones I’ve seen who managed to have success in this area, and I believe they can transmute 80% of the remaining effects within a few days if they really focus.

        If you do need support and can’t rely on coaches, then these monks may be the best option for now. You can join the Varanasi Project here.

        I also really have to ask myself what more I can offer you. The industry is collapsing. There is a big vacuum. What will it get filled with?

      3. Pakistan Charland Academy Updates

        Pakistan Charland Academy Updates

        A few months ago, I talked about the humanitarian project in Pakistan to help educate poor children, both with spiritual knowledge and practical knowledge. Suneelshakir had been sending me pictures for a full year before I decided to help them, and they decided to call it the Charland Academy. Helping children and widow women who are the most vulnerable to get a new life. He’s posting a lot of pictures on their Facebook page so that you can see the situation over there.

        I’m writing this update because they are in urgent need to build a roof over their head. They are studying in an open space, and the rainy season is coming. To be able to study year-long, they will need an indoor space. They will need $1500 to build that room and already have a donor for $500, so they need $1000 more. You can donate here.

        There are also a couple of things I wanted to mention about this project a while back; now is a good time to share my thoughts.

        First of all, why did I decide to support him? Because he has a very strong connection to God and his integrity level is extremely high. Every little money is worth 10-100x more for them than for us, and it doesn’t go for luxuries. It pays very basic needs that we take for granted.

        There has been a lot of similar projects in Africa, that often fell apart after a few years. What makes this project different? If you do a project without God, it takes a lot of efforts, and if you stop 90% of the way, you get no result and everything falls apart to be forgotten forever. That’s what happens with most humanitarian projects.

        On the other hand, if you bring God into your projects, and stop 50% of the way, the essence of God will keep growing on its own. There will be permanent results that compound over time, that can show in all kinds of forms. It many people do different projects in a direction, and none get to completion, it will still build momentum in that direction. Results are not tied to your completion of plans, but are rather tied to the cumulative intents of various people. In other words, a spark of light cannot be taken away.

        Suneelshakir is a Catholic minority among a Pakistani Muslim majority. No matter what you think of Catholics, he’s someone who acts by the word of God, not someone who goes by doctrines.

        Then, how much can we really help them when we’re heading for 15-36% of global survival rate? In Western countries, we got plenty of chances to wake up and get a new life in harmony with the Laws of God. The events that are unfolding are to clean up those who haven’t got the memo after 100 warnings. What I’m hearing from God is that those who never had a chance will be given an opportunity, and those kids in Pakistan are certainly taking it. (He managed to keep most of them non-vaccinated.)

        Pakistan is also the bridge between the Eastern and Western worlds, with energy lines connecting to the mess in China, to the ever-conflicted Middle-East, and Europe that is in serious turmoil. Plus the Ukraine war that started just above. It’s an important geopolitical area to stabilize by injecting light, both energetically, physically and financially. The money we sent amplifies the Light we sent by at least 1000x, even if it’s just a little money.

        Widow women are also very vulnerable, as they are often stuck to either prostitute themselves, or work transporting bricks in the torching sun. Another project he’s thinking, once he finds a way to secure the funds, is to buy a farm-land to grow food that gives good profit margin. It would feed the children and staff, allow the women to work and learn how to plan and run a business, and provides income to fund the other operations. It’s a very good project but will require planning and investors, as it will pay itself back over time. He’s got plenty of people willing to work.

        >> Use this link to contribute to the Charland Academy.

        You can also follow them on Facebook and view their pictures here.

        Going back to yourself. There are many benefits to giving to charity. What you give out creates good karma that comes back in different forms. Even if it doesn’t, you know that it makes a very positive different for others.

        I heard of a story of a business that was donating $100K per year to the church. One year, the business wasn’t doing as well as usual, and they decided to cut that expense and not donate. Their clients cut down on $100K worth of contracts that year, either by God’s decree, or by coincidence. They respected their donations after that.

        Then the problem with donations is that; you can’t just start a non-profit organization and manage it on your own. You need an “independent” board of directors, except that most such directors are part of the Cabal. Thus, 90%+ of non-profit organizations are run by the Cabal, who tend to take rather large “administration” fees in best cases, or fund their own agendas.

        On top of funding the Cabal and funding their agendas, this leaves good people with the impression that they’ve done their part, who then take no further actions in service to God and the planet.

        Many people recommend that one donates 5-10% of their income to keep the energy circulating and open up for more (as if you horde on money, it clogs to come in).

        The question then is: where to donate to really make a positive difference?

        If you’ve been struggling with that question, the Charland Academy may very well be the solution!

        >> You can donate here to help educate the children in Pakistan

        Again, right now they need $1000 more to build a room so that they can study during the rainy season. They also want to purchase the material within the coming days as material prices will be going up on July 1st.

        Thank you for your help!

        One last thing. When everything looks gloomy in the world, and you get a bad day, looking at these little angels, and knowing the difference that you make in their lives, can be the spark needed to put the smile back on your face.

      5. Garuda Linux vs Zorin OS

        Garuda Linux vs Zorin OS

        I recently talked about why migrate to Linux. There are many distros out there, and choosing the right one can be difficult. Here are some advice that will help you get started if you choose to go that route.

        First, don’t be intimidated by all the distros. Linux as a whole is a set of components plugged together. Linux distros are essentially configuration presets. You can make any distro look like any other distro by changing its components and configuration.

        That being said, there are two major branches of Linux distros: Ubuntu-based and Arch-based. The difference is that Ubuntu has a static update cycle, meaning less frequent and more stable updates, whereas Arch has a rolling update cycle, meaning continual daily updates and less stability.

        Power-users often preach Arch distros like a religion. What you need to know is that Arch-based systems can break down 4 times per year and require manual intervention to fix. You often can find the solutions with a quick search online and type the commands in the shell. If you’re not comfortable with that, then perhaps Ubuntu-based is best for you. One power-user had installed Garuda (Arch-based) on his wife’s laptop and recommended me NOT to do that.

        Here’s a review of Windows 11 from the perspective of a Linux user.

        The most popular Ubuntu-based distros are Ubuntu, Pop! OS and Linux Mint, whereas the most popular Arch-based distro is Manjaro. After doing plenty of research, there are newer fast-running contestants in the horizon that have my personal vote: Garuda Linux and Zorin OS. Neither of these will require you to use the shell to get up-and-running.

        Zorin OS — Ubuntu-based selection

        The visual style of Zorin OS is very similar to Windows, it has easy WINE integration to run Windows programs, and it’s very simple to use. However, in practice, running Windows programs by double-clicking them often won’t work as they’ll require more configuration. Zorin uses SNAP package manager by default (more frequent updates than apt-get), and you can use a graphical application manager to install most applications. For some applications that won’t work well in SNAP, you can use apt-get to install them.

        One big difference between Linux and Windows is that under Linux, all software are installed through package managers. Compare that to Windows where you have to go to the website of each app, download the installer, run it and go through the wizard. On Linux, all that is done with a single command.

        There isn’t much to say about Zorin OS. It looks great, Its usage is very simple, and it supports all Ubuntu apps. There’s no point in paying for the Pro version unless you want to support the developers as you can install the extra software yourself for free.

        However, Zorin OS run on a bit outdated components, and I’ve had several issues. Steam wouldn’t display properly when high-dpi is set to 125%; it would display smaller than normal! Also, the laptop turbo button wouldn’t work, and enabling it would require running some custom script of experimental implementation from the internet, which can cause long-term stability issues.

        I did install it on my wife’s laptop for word processing and internet stuff. She didn’t see much difference from Windows other than things being in slightly different places. One thing I didn’t like as a power-user is that software names are changed to things like Software, Disk Partitions, Pictures, etc. This is great for newbies, but it’s hard to know the real names of the applications running by default.

        If you have an older computer running Windows XP or Windows 7, which are no longer supported, you can install Zorin OS and keep using it. It has lighter requirements than Garuda, and nobody will tell you that your computer is too old and needs to be changed.

        Garuda KDE Dr460nized — Arch-based selection

        If you are more of a power-user, then Garuda may be a very good choice. Unless battery life is very important to you. Linux isn’t very good when it comes to battery life, and that’s particularly true for Garuda that is performance-oriented. You may also want to avoid that for your grand-mother’s laptop to improve your quality of life.

        Being Arch-based, you’ll get bleeding-edge features. To offset the instability of Arch, it installs by default on BTRFS file system. It automatically tracks changes and creates snapshots of your system. If something goes wrong, reboot your computer, and from the boot menu, you can boot from an earlier automatic snapshot. Once you’re in, search online for solutions to the problem you just had. Fixing update issues can take 5 minutes to 2 hours at most. If you’re not comfortable doing that, then Zorin OS may be a better fit.

        That being said, some Arch users claim say that they never had any such issues in 5 years. Here’s how Arch-based systems usually break. You can avoid breakage by following a few simple rules.

        1. Avoid installing packages from the AUR. If it’s absolutely necessary, then make sure it’s actively maintained, and never use the AUR for core system components.

        2. Install updates regularly on a weekly basis. If you wait 6+ months, you’re asking for trouble or manual interventions.

        3. If you see Garuda assistant notifications about potential update issues, make sure to click on it and read what you need to do.

        4. Do not install bleeding-edge kernel unless it fixes some specific issues that you’re having on your hardware.

        On the flip-side, I’ve had LESS issues with Garuda than with Zorin OS. Turbo mode works by default, and Steam displays correctly with dpi scaling. Also, don’t worry about memory usage. Garuda considers that unused memory is pure waste. It will try to use as much as possible.

        Using the Garuda Assistant, you can install all the software you need with a few clicks. Compared to that, on Windows, you need to search and find various websites to download utilities and software left and right; after uninstall all the crap you don’t want. Some consider Garuda’s approach bloatware, but I would have to install all those software manually anyway, and you select exactly what you want to install. You also don’t need an anti-virus on Linux — it’s not recommended because an anti-virus requires root privileges and could be hacked, and thus is more of a potential threat than what it solves.

        Garuda also comes with a privacy-oriented fork of FireFox called FIreDragon. Garuda has lots of tweaks and optimizations built-in as-if a hacker power-user had spent weeks configuring and fine-tuning your personal computer. Or course, you can override their choices and install the apps of your choice, but it’s good to have someone showing you the best options when you don’t know what’s available.

        You can read the rest of the features of both Zorin OS and Garuda on their websites and in review videos. The focus of this article is to provide the results of my investigation, not to repeat what’s already written on their websites.

        Cross-Platform Development

        Here are some notes for those interested in cross-platform programming.

        The combination of .NET + Avalonia + JetBrains Rider (free license for Open Source; install from their Toolbox App not from package manager) works great on Linux. Programming with Avalonia is similar to Microsoft WPF but better designed.

        Avalonia uses ReactiveUI MVVM platform by default, with Splat for dependency injection by default. They say that most Dependency Injection frameworks are designed for web applications and that their initialization time and memory usage is too high for mobile apps, and Splat claims radical performance improvement. Avalonia will soon support Android, iOS and WebAssembly on top of Windows, Linux and MacOS. Avalonia v1.0 will be coming out soon with a stable API.

        On my side, I’m porting generic components from WPF to Avalonia. MvvmDialogs is absolutely necessary to manage windows and popups and had no replacement yet. I have just ported it to Avalonia on my fork, which will be pulled back to the main code branch once the testing, documentation and fine-tuning is done.

        I have also ported my Media Player control from WPF to also support Avalonia, audio-only for now. It’s now using BASS for cross-platform support, and for pitch-shifting, it seems to provide better quality than the previous implementation. Video support is missing from Avalonia, and I plan to port MPV video player support to Avalonia using the same visual interface, but that’s not for now.

        On my side, the 432hz Player is nearly ready with Windows/Linux/MacOS support. Then the Powerliminals Player will come shoftly after. It’s the generic shared components that take a lot of time to port. Once that’s done, the applications themselves are pretty simple to port.

        Moving forward!

      6. Humanitarian Project in Pakistan

        Many of you guys greatly helped me last year when we went through a very difficult period. We couldn’t travel internationally but could do what needed to be done around our area in Mexico. I’m now back on my feet, and am passing on the donations to others who really need it. I’ve been supporting this humanitarian project in Pakistan for a while now. I’m personally donating $300 per month to them, to help educate children living in total poverty, and to help widow women get out of slavery. Even small donations make a huge difference for these people.

        Here’s a video explaining the project and the situation over there.

        If you would like to donate to this mission, send your donations here. I will receive funds in Canada and forward everything to Pakistan.

        Single donations will be great to help these children celebrate Christmas that they could never celebrate before. What they really need, however, is recurring donations. $20 per month will be more useful than a single donation of $100, and with 25 donations of $20 per month, plus the $300 per month I’m sending, he will be able to cover his base monthly expenses.

        With Open Collective, finances will be transparent. He can list what he’s doing with the money.

        Here’s a detailed project proposal for Christmas Gifts: he wants to give clothes and one meal to 57 children under his care. And if possible, buy back the life of a woman living in total slavery for $900.

        Your support is greatly appreciated!

      7. The Future of Windows, and Why Migrate to Linux

        The Future of Windows, and Why Migrate to Linux

        Last week, I wrote about the option of migrating to Linux instead of Windows 11. One person already confirmed having made the switch to Korin OS. It’s going to double in popularity very soon, and jump to 15%+ popularity in about 3 years. What is really going to happen then?

        Look at how centralized platforms like Facebook and YouTube have radicalized themselves lately, to have better control over the flow of information. Windows has remained pretty neutral in all this; as a data collection engine.

        It’s however only a matter of time until Windows joins the party and radicalizes itself. Once they get desperate enough, you’ll see gradual changes in Windows, and you’ll have no control over how it updates itself and how your computer is going to behave.

        Here’s what I see. For now, it’s only collecting data. Eventually, it’s going to assist you with your daily tasks using AI. From there, its AI engine is going to interfere into your daily work. For example, if you want to write an article that is not appropriate like this one, the AI will step in to suggest corrections and facts to help you change your mind. That’s where many will draw the line and jump ship.

        With a 15%+ Linux market share, what will it look like for my subscribers and followers?

        – Now: 2.1% Linux usage
        – 1 year: 4.2%
        – 2 years: 8.6%
        – 3 years: 24.8%
        – 4 years: 53.6%
        – 5 years: 55.8%
        – 10 years: 72.8%

        MacOS will grow too but maybe with 50% growth.

        My thought: if we’re going to migrate towards Linux anyway, why wait until the last minute?

        Linux has grown and matured a lot in the past few years, and with the arrival of the Steam Deck console based on Linux, the Linux user-base is going to grow by several millions. Linux used to be bad for gaming, but Steam has done a lot of work to make 80% of Windows games run on Linux simply by clicking Install and Run (or do a few tweaks), and it will keep improving. Adding gaming support for all Windows games is a HUGE milestone for Linux.

        Talking of which — if you’re going to purchase games for yourself or your kids, better purchase them on Steam. “Piracy” is not a thing on Linux, so if you want games to run, the easiest way is to purchase them on Steam and it will install with a click. Steam is really getting the edge over other online stores here.

        Steam currently has an Automn sale with tons of top-tier games at 50-85% OFF! Last day for the promotion, expires Dec 1st 10AM PST. I just bought a few games at 85% off for later, after checking them for compatibility on ProtonDB.

        I cannot yet install Linux on my daughter’s computer because Fortnite’s anti-cheat technology doesn’t yet work under Linux. I did however install it on my wife’s laptop. Do note that battery life will be lower with Linux than with Windows. It’s just a fact of life. I don’t know whether that will improve in the coming years.

        After doing plenty of research, my 2 top distros of choice are Korin OS 16 for an Ubuntu-based system or Garuda for an Arch-based Linux. I’ll write another article to talk about them.

        Switching OS isn’t easy, especially using Linux for non-tech-savvy people, but here are steps that you can take now:

        1. Start using cross-platform software replacements, so that you don’t need to learn the OS and the new software at the same time

        2. Start watching some videos about Linux, which will help you get used to it and help you avoid mistakes

        3. Keep Linux compatibility in mind when purchasing new hardware or software

        You can install Linux as dual-boot or in a virtual machine to play with it until you’re ready for a full switch. Windows doesn’t play nice with other OS and can break your dual-boot without notice, so eventually, we may have to switch to Linux with Windows under virtual machine to use things like Adobe Premiere.

        As a note, Linux is widely used in the servers world but in terms of desktop environment, it’s a mess. This video explains the reality of the situation. Many companies (include Adobe) release software for Windows and MacOS; but targeting Linux is a major pain in the *ss. Hopefully that will keep improving in the coming years.

        I’ll write more about my observations in regards to Korin OS and Garuda Linux.

        On my side, I’m making great progress in porting my Powerliminals Player and 432hz Player to be cross-platform. The 432hz tuning is now working using cross-platform libraries and in fact gives better quality than before. Stay tuned for that!

        One last thing. Here are various search engine alternatives to Google. Which one would you choose?

      8. Busting the Myth of Making Money From Your Gifts

        Busting the Myth of Making Money From Your Gifts

        This is a bit awkward to say from someone who has been telling people to use their gifts to live their purpose for so many years, but here we go.

        Money doesn’t come from your gifts. It doesn’t come from your purpose either. It comes from God, often from unexpected sources.

        If you make money from your gifts, it means a few things.

        First, you’re trading your time for money. It’s an approach that is not very scalable.

        Second, you may be unconsciously restricting your income sources to your purpose.

        If you put Purpose ahead of Money, then it constrains your income and constrains your impact.

        Furthermore, it places your purpose in service to your clients first and in service to God second, if at all.

        It ties your purpose to money.

        You definitely should be rewarded for the value you give to others, but what if your purpose was untainted by money?

        What would you do differently?

        Purpose ahead of money often becomes a money-driven purpose.

        Is that starting to feel wrong?

        Since you need money to survive and are often struggling financially, money affects and limits most of your decisions and your overall path.

        Be careful not to get lost in the means of achieving your mission!

        Someone also pointed out that by placing purpose ahead of money, since he didn’t know his purpose, he got stuck and did nothing.

        Let me suggest a different approach.

        Place God first, Money second and Purpose third, in that very specific order.

        Trading your gifts for money definitely isn’t the only way to earn money. There’s currently a movement in the industry to create platforms that deliver value instead of having to deliver everything yourself.

        Here’s an example. A preacher could share his message at his church every week. Or, he could have a series of churches across the whole country. Then, he can decide to show up at any of those churches when he wants, and that’s optional. Also, he does NOT compromise his message based on what his clients want.

        If you put purpose before money, then you have a money-driven purpose.

        If you put God before money, then you have a God-driven purpose.

        I’ve seen a huge increase of income in the past few months, and it didn’t come from coaching. It came from new income opportunities that fell into place. I started selling stones of power, and I started selling Alchemy rings with attuned gemstones. Compared to my other services, these require very little of my own energy to deliver, and it can be scaled.

        Then, the God & Money Masterclass fell into place.

        I’m working very hard to make it available within the next few days so that the program starts on February 1st. It’s a very tight schedule though…

        Pricing will be $497 and $297 for those earning less than $12k per year, as I want this to be accessible to those who need it the most.
