We wanted to release Hoaxed in May.

That’s not going to happen as we took the film in a different direction. In hindsight, Hoaxed should have been a six-part series.

The beauty and frustration (oh, mindset, we mean challenge!) of making documentary films is that you don’t know where the project will head. There isn’t a script. You have an idea of what the film will be, and then you go into production. Films make you as much as you make them.

We are releasing Hoaxed as a film because films have cachet. Although I write about the dangers of buying into social status, you must also know the rules of the social status game. Film is more powerful than mini-series.

We’ll be having a private screening for Hoaxed in June, and are planning a public release for July.

A Night for Freedom is coming soon.

We held two major events – one in New York and another in D.C. – called A Night for Freedom.

For the New York event, we had two venues flake on us, and yet still pulled off an incredible event.

• Read: A Night for Freedom NYC

Chelsea Manning showed up, which freaked out the left.

Events take a lot of time and energy to plan, and they are expensive. (The NYC event cost $110,000, and I lost a few grand on it, not including my travel costs.)

I’ll let you know when the next event is scheduled. There might be one happening as soon as June.

The Hoaxed screening takes priority over A Night for Freedom. We may be able to fold the premier into A Night for Freedom. We’ll see.

Audacity, my long-awaited book on How to Go from Nobody to Somebody is going to be released in 2018.

Why is Audacity a year late?

Audacity folds in my own personal experiences. By the time Audacity is released I’ll have:

• Crowd-funded two major films,
• Appeared on 60 Minutes before 15 million people,
• Broke some of the biggest stories of the year,
• Held massive events in the biggest cities,
• Started a supplement company.
• Etc.

I despise how-to books by people who rely on theory. I went from being some fat kid on food stamps to…this…whatever this is. And even people who hate me know my name.

Gorilla Mindset Master Class is coming soon.

A lot of people never understood why I went from living a great life with a no-stress mindset business to do media, which is terrible work, high stress, and pays poorly. What good is a mindset book that isn’t applied in the real world? I’ve done stuff that shouldn’t be possible.

I’ll be filming the class with a studio audience on May 12, 2018. From there we’ll go into post-production. Expect the course before August.

Gorilla Mindset Network.

I’m still working on this. As you can see, there’s a lot going on.

Gorilla Mind has released some great products.

Gorilla Mind is one year behind schedule, because the first supplier didn’t fulfill their obligations. Gorilla Mind found another (better) supplier, and independently lab tested all products.

Gorilla Mind currently offers a powerful focusing agent (one without caffeine).

And Gorilla Dream is by far the best sleep aid I’ve ever taken. Nothing comes close.

• Gorilla Mind (Rush)
• Gorilla Mind (Smooth)
• Gorilla Dream

Gorilla Mind even offers a skin care serum.

P.S. It’s time for some real talk for the bottom 1%.

I am used to being hated by people for ideological reasons, but some of my own “readers” and “fans” have gotten nasty. Let me be clear about something.

Every day people love telling me what I should be doing. I’m in post-production on a film, writing a book, working on a video course, planning events, and breaking news. I don’t have a staff and work out of a spare bedroom.

Because a lot of people are political readers, they are used to being pandered to by people who need every vote. I don’t need every reader.

I don’t need more readers, I don’t need dead beat readers, and I don’t need complainers.

If you’re upset with me, don’t read. I don’t need to hear about it. I don’t need a “noisy unfollow.” Just go away.

Positive people only.

P.P.S. You are the best readers in the world.

People wonder who I deal with the hate and negativity, but that is only a small percentage of people.

It’s really astounding how generous and supportive you’ve been.

You’ve crowd-funded to films, bought my books, bought for friends, and even kicked in some cash and bitcoin to support our media work.

YOU are appreciated.

If you want to see the work continue, you can support the mission here.

And pick up a copy of Gorilla Mindset today.

When Kanye West tweeted out 9 clips from a recent Scott Adams Periscope, the media didn’t do what it always doesn’t to: Not one journalist watched the video Kanye posted. Think about how significant that is. If Kanye posted 9 video clips, shouldn’t the story be: What was in the video?

But that is not how our media works. Journalists do not critique or respond to ideas. They character assassinate people they don’t like.

The media is terrified of what will happen if you watch this video.

Mental Prisons

Most of our problems are mental, not physical.

Scott Adams began talking about the Golden Age in an earlier video, where he said:

You have a country that is off-balance because we moved from a place where facts rule the world to where facts do not rule our world. We live in a non-factual, mostly-subjective world… Once you start realizing how much of an illusion we are all living in, you can start to deal with your reality with a better understanding of it.

We’re entering a period where our biggest problems are simply psychology, simply the way we recognize our reality and the way we deal with it. If we can just figure out how to be friends and how to work together in a positive way, we have an opportunity within the next 100 years to be something so special that it’s almost indescribable….We’re on the cusp of this, but we’re not there.

In the West, you’re not going to die from starvation, polio, or malaria. We live in a time of nearly limitless abundance. And yet people are angrier and more miserable than ever. People are imposing limitations on themselves in others by living in mental prisons.

Adams built on his idea of the Energy Shift in a video directed specially to Kanye – “Scott Adams tells you how Kanye showed the way to The Golden Age.”

One example of a mental prison is, according to Adams, “The false belief that history repeats is a mental prison.”

Another mental prison is “that the problem has to be the solution. It’s a prison if you think the only solutions are things that are closely related to the problem.” In American history, white people owned slaves, and thus the solution to slavery was for white people to stop owning slaves.

What can be done to combat racism today? Who can solve this problem?

“The last mile, no matter whose problem it is, can’t be solved by white people….Candace’s realization is that the problem and solution is disconnected….Only the people who have the problem can solve it.”

“Kanye knows history doesn’t repeat, he’s not a prison of the mind, he knows the problem is not the solution.”

“YOUR past is your future is a mental prison.”

If world history doesn’t repeat itself, why do you believe your past is your future?

Pay attention to those fake news articles about Scott Adams. How many of them address his current ideas? They dig up decades’ old material, which is then taken out of context.

Scott Adams is a

•  #1 NY Times best selling author
• Multiple NY Times best selling author
• World-famous comic strip creator
• Start-up founder
• Film star

Now look at this headline.

The media wants to hold Scott in the mental prison of the past. He won’t stay there, and neither will Kanye.

 

Now ask yourself: Who benefits most from having an outraged and angry population?

Scientific studies have shown that outraged-based articles in the media receive 3 times the traffic as honest articles. The media depends on clicks and eye balls to sell advertisements. Do they want people talking?

Advertisers solve mostly fake problems. Do advertisers want us talking to one another about solutions to human problems?

What would happen if Kanye and Candace led the way on racial issues? That would put a lot of professional outrage groups out of business.

Mental prisons are the biggest industry today.

UPDATE (April 30, 2019): “The world took a negative turn in 2017, with global levels of stress, worry, sadness and pain hitting new highs. During a solid year of economic growth, the U.S. kept this negative trend going into 2018. Higher levels of stress, anger and worry nudged Americans’ overall Negative Experience Index to 35 — three points higher than any previous score to date.”

Science proved Scott Adams right.
