![we only get one time to be a person. we each have limited time to experence the world and people. how do you feel when you think about dieing? for me i want to hug people. i want to tell people a joke and see them smile
a lot of people ask me what “boost” is, because i am always saying “boost.” well boost is vary mysterous you know. “boost” is used in many ways.. when you are excited or performing well, you may say “im boosting!! ~ ~ BOOOOOST!!!”
in a bad moment you may also say “boost.” then your friend will be surprised. “how is that a boost??” but that is for them to figure out… the most important form of “boost” may be as a transitive verb—when we boost other people
i think helping each other is the most meaninful thing we can do in our lives. lief can be hard and sad, that is the human way. the first noble truth of budhism is that suffering exists.. and yet, we can use our lives to help each other feel ok and actualy laugh and have fun. that is the way of the boost
every day we interact woth people and put things into the world. we have a voice and agency. some people are more IRL, some are more Internet, but u have interactions.. the way of the boost is to use your interactions to help each other. with conscious effort, you make your cotribution to the world positive and freindly
it is fun to make people happy, and it is fun to get there positive energy back. you share kindness or humer with people, and they are likely to share it back. this is “co-boosting” or createing a “circle of boost”… very importent..
the money-based economy is supose to work this way: people exchange “value” as money, helping each other woth diferent skills, to the benfit of everyone.. but it doesn’t realy work right.. many people have pointless job’s that dont boost anyone
corporations lure people to pay for things that dont make them happy. when you pay for those things, it gives corporatons power to keep building their culture that doesnt boost people, and more pointless jobs are created
i bring up these example to show how broad “boost” actualy is. everything is contained in boost… we should not assume we fuly understand “boost” or that we mastered it!! there is always more to learn about boost. u can always be more skilful at boosting people
there are so many way’s of boosting… there are nutritional boosts, there are financial boosts, there are spiritual boosts.. there are short-term “Mood Altering Boosts” (MAB) and long-term “Paradigm Altering Boosts” (PAB). [MORE BOOSTEING ANALYSIS] ..my favorite boost is encourageing people, such as complimenting people
somtimes i see a status update, “im having a terrible day”… usualy i give that person many likes and comments.. even if i hardly know them. i try to make them laugh. i give them over 50 notification’s, i try to boost them.. sometimes i ask if they want to talk about there day
the internet has created a golden age of boosting. on social media its possible to boost people very fast. you can sit on a chair and have many interactions across the world to boost people. yesterday i sent 116 @-replies on twiter, then i poked 265 people on facebook and messaged dozens people more
one of my favorite people who undestands boosting is beach sloth. when asked to summerize his worldview, beach sloth simply said, “support each other.” this is Boosting.. this is a foundation for our community and our lives
we dont need to try to “suceed” in conventional ways or chase what other people value.. pay attention to what realy makes u feel good.. for me it is popcorn, hugs, walt whitman, and boosting people on the intenet
i am lucky to be alive with you friends. my favorite thing in the world is to make you laugh and feel good](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_madal4eJo91qcpw3fo1_1280.jpg)
