I want Effective Accelerationism to keep moving forward as it is.

But I also believe that humanity needs to practice understanding the raw, human kind much more. Only humans can truly understand and act on that understanding, and that ability will become even more important from here on out.

That’s why I’m building Mind.

I guess I shouldn’t stay in an environment where I don’t even feel like learning

Or maybe the message is that there’s nothing left for me to learn, so I should just stop learning altogether and build my own religion now.

But I still believe there’s more I can learn and I think I can grow my religion in parallel anyway.

Let’s generate progress, produce tangible outcomes, and dedicate ourselves to making humanity better.

Recently, I’ve been working on several things: ryuzo.me/ryuzo

• Calm Mind
  A side project. Many young people seem to lose their drive by giving in to sexual desire. Let’s keep our ambition. Aiming for revenue.

• My Life
  Part of Kokoro Research. I want people to think more deeply about their lives, record them, and preserve them. Aiming for both dreams and revenue.

• Homeless Founders
  A side project. By connecting great founders and hacker houses, I want to energize the founder community. Aiming for influence.

• Social Media
  A side project. Aiming for influence.

All of these require marketing and development.

I’m also strengthening the websites I’ve already built (kokoro.wiki, ryuzo.support, deeepthink.com).

At this stage, fully monetizing the websites I’ve built carries huge meaning. Steady revenue allows me to start something much bigger.

Revenue, dreams, and influence. Sometimes, they can be achieved together.

By succeeding with these projects, I’ll gain the experience of achievement.

And then, with Kokoro Research, I’ll accomplish something truly big.

I went to San Francisco.
Just for a month, for now. Once I solve the tangled visa knot, I’ll return. (It’s a headache)

I left high school.
To build.

I’ve shifted my focus from Yobou to Kokoro Research.
To understand the inner world of human beings. To gather data. To inquire deeply.

In tiny steps, minute, imperceptible steps. I’ve grown.
This is just the beginning.

Bear witness to a moment in history.

Recently, I have learned.

And I have learned that learning itself can be meaningless.

Only execution matters.

Still, as a safeguard, I take notes on what I learn, and sometimes share or preserve them through tweets.

My personal notes go deeper than my tweets — tweets are often just fleeting insights.

I believe it’s perfectly fine to live life with care.
I’m aiming for extraordinary success—and pure, unbridled spontaneity alone won’t get me there.

Those who rise to true greatness keep their eyes on the future and live each day with deliberate excellence.

Life is profoundly difficult.
What, after all, should be our purpose?

Around me, there are roughly two kinds of people.

First are those who want a “good-enough” life.
They run modest businesses at home, neither huge nor tiny, maybe cash out or do a small IPO, and thrive inside a comfortable, close-knit circle on this planet.

Second are those who want a life of great success.
They find ordinary victory dull, and strive—through words backed by real responsibility—to move the world forward. Such people live as if the entire Earth were their stage.

Which way should I go?

If I am to live only once, I want the grand triumph: a life so large that every human being comes to know my name.

That feeling must be dazzling—enough to make one faint with joy.

Successful entrepreneurs are not made by chance.

They are always deep thinkers, capable of applying their insights across domains to envision the right path to success.

And when intuition arises, they act — and in doing so, they change the world.

I live this moment to become that truth.

Do what you truly believe is right.

Whether you make cash in your first chapter and change the world in your second,

or aim to change the world from the start—

what others think doesn’t matter.

Just follow what feels true to you.
