JBP: Political market position has peaked. Revenue market position has legs. You will have to move with the Overton window. You cannot move early -but must lag. And you’ll need to face the science that nationalism is the optimum group strategy for individuals.

MORE COURSES
I have to demonstrate the success of a few courses before I can get others to invest. The average person has no idea how difficult it is to put together any of the series: a presentation, a workshop, a training program, or a course.
A course requires 45 hours of presentation and 90 hours of outside ‘work’. Because of the online format we can offer a range of 6(90hrs), 3(45hrs), 2(30hrs), 1(15hrs), .5(8 hrs), and .25(4hrs) credit courses – and bundle various small courses into a larger ‘collection’.
The same is for topics. By creating topics we can combine topics across courses for cross training.
Personally this is the most rewarding work I have ever done. And the idea that people can more easily access the work and do so in a community format is thrilling.
We’re slow but we get there.

“CURT: IS EXEC TALENT DECLINING IN QUALITY?”
I think that there is an excess of capital available for ‘failure’ because boomers haven’t yet extracted their savings from the investment pool – and so this is driving business opportunity down into the limits of competence. Yes

YES, SALES IS BEST, AND THE EXECUTIVE PATH, BUT…
-“CURT (Career Advice): Sales is the upper limit for earning but it is especially NPC heavy, where the better salesman are either NPCs, or front so well as them it is indistinguishable.”-
This isn’t really true. The more risk you are mitigating with your sale, the less being an NPC (likable) is valuable. Conversely, the less substantial your sale, the more ‘likability’ is what the consumer is purchasing.
I sold every expensive high risk propositions and delivered greater customer service than the competition, with less concern for profit, and more concern for customer retention. But I am a closer. I don’t ‘originate’ sales. I don’t have the personality for it. I hire people who do.
So your personality must satisfy the criteria: origination (likability), or winning a competition (skill), or holding an income stream (customer care.).
You must sell what you are best at selling.

Everyone wants to be manager, owner, ceo, general, president until you do the job. Then you just want someone else to do it who is just not as bad as you are at it.

@curtdoolittle Quite important as most leaders view mentoring and thus making a new leader, as a threat to their identity too much to do it.

PRODUCING LEADERS NOT LEADING
by Tim Kay
To those who don’t get it: Curt’s a leader-producer, not a leader. Which is more crucial but just not the same role. Leaders are those best able to make use of the intellectual weaponry he develops in their respective niches. They emerge from the slush pile that is the audience. It seems to me that there is a core of Propertarian judges (those capable of continuing Curt’s work at his level) who are currently in development, and then a core of leaders (those who can propagate and mobilise), with some overlap between the two.
It would be incorrect to ask Curt to be the leader because …
*THE RIGHT ISN”T A MONOLITH*. … Leaders must be discovered in order to fit the demands of the various groups (and their grammars).
An important consideration is the long-term viability of the work. As such making it about Curt would defeat the purpose; seeding a sufficiently distributed group of leaders is essential.
To those who are looking for a leader, I would suggest nominating your existing de facto leader to get on board with Propertarianism and so fill one of the niches, or, to keep an eye on the talent produced by the project.

from CURTD:
Let me repeat this because it’s the core of it:
—“Leaders must be discovered in order to fit the demands of the various groups (and their grammars). “—
I produce political weaponry. One of the weapons is leaders. I am not nor do I want to be a leader. We must act as one, not be led by one.
Honestly I’m absolutely floored someone made this argument (grammars) instead of me because it is evidence of how far we have come in PRODUCING thought leadership.

WE PLAN ON CONTINUOUSLY ROLLING COURSES – AT LEAST THE CORE ONES….
—“Hi Curt, I’ve taken a look at the website and am very keen on the courses available. Propertarianism is essential. Unfortunately I am way too busy with the final year of my degree and British politics at the moment. Will the opportunity to join classes roll over continuously, or is there a set window? Thanks”—, Reece
Oh yes. Of course. It’s continuous as long as we hae someone willing to run the course, answer questions, and grade assignments.
Courses need a minimum number of students in order for the instructor to have it worth his time, and students need each other to dialog with.
We start this coming week on the law (provided I don’t have any crisis that delays me a day or two… lol )

PROPERTARIAN STORE STUFF AND COURSES
—“Hey Curt; Any [stickers, patches, flags, banners, clothing] by chance? “—Devon Chamberlain (and 100 others)
*WE ARE IN STARTUP MODE*
John was waaaay more successful than we thought and demand is outpacing our abilities – and while I started putting the institute site together in December, we are still in startup mode, and we are going to be for six months or more.
At present we just have the web site, and one class ready, one in production, on in research, and three in draft phase. So you know, it’s going to take us a year at least to fill out the courses.
And the ‘marketing stuff’ requires I devote time to researching, getting the stuff produced, finding a fulfillment house, etc…
So you know… I”m kinda in that place where I said I wouldn’t put myself again, which is extremely overloaded. So I’m just going to take my time and get things done as they can get done.
It takes years to get accreditation. It takes years to build up curriculum. It takes years to find and test out instructors. So I’m playing the long game here, because otherwise I can’t do it. Too much.
Source date (UTC): 2019-02-19 11:20:00 UTC
Nah. Let it go. Not really worth it. Small audience. Moron. Hit piece. I’ll stick with the mainstream grownups. The institute is brand new we will take a year to build up the courses. Only courses that are possible to purchase are those we have ready. 😉

(Gary is shaming me a bit – rightfully)
There is no single-author program on this scale other than aristotle’s. While many authors have come to the same conclusions, only Hume, Kant, Hegel, Marx, and Heidegger attempted it with any degree of success. And it is this difference between the multi-author programs of the anglo world and the single author programs of the continental world that explain the difference between anglo scientific (specialization/market) and continental literary (synthesis/monopoly).
IF WE WERE NOT BEING INVADED by design to destroy our people via the kalergi plan they way other people have been destroyed by the semites, then I would be able to whittle away at these books like Hayek and put them out when ready. But the demographic pressure is forcing me to go against my intuition and nature. So it is what it is.Alba RisingWhy make it readable for normies? Let it be as concise and truthful as possible. Like a work of science. It’s up to everyone else (i.e. us) to help it permeate wider culture.Feb 17, 2019, 10:58 AMCurt DoolittleYOu talk as if that isn’t the hard part/Feb 17, 2019, 10:59 AMAlba RisingWe’re up to it!Feb 17, 2019, 11:00 AMPhilip SaundersWrite a doorstopper like The Wealth of Nations or Being and Time. A great mountain attracts the best climbers. Don’t water down the impact by spreading it over multiple small books of posts. You need to make a single blockbuster for maximum impact.Feb 17, 2019, 11:03 AMMartin ŠtěpánI really hope it’s not like Hegel. I’m just about to finish Phenomenology of Spirit and, well, I don’t get it.Feb 17, 2019, 11:07 AMCurt DoolittleIt’s like reading a novel and seeing the allegory except the novel is about psychology.Feb 17, 2019, 11:09 AMCurt DoolittleMost men write a series of books. Being in Time is only 589pp altogether. My first draft was almost three times that – which makes it impossible to edit, print, distribute, and sell.Feb 17, 2019, 11:10 AMMartin ŠtěpánI should have probably looked into the definitions being used because to me, it’s reading word salad.Feb 17, 2019, 11:11 AMCurt Doolittle(it’s just ‘silly german prose’ which is better than ‘silly bullshit french prose’)Feb 17, 2019, 11:11 AMCurt DoolittleThe books are clearly my voice and style. The difference is that I go through and ‘cut down’ the repetition, make the terms consistent, and fill in the ‘leaps of reason’, and try to organize as layers of an onion. I can do it but I get very tired after just a few hours of it.Feb 17, 2019, 11:12 AMPhilip SaundersWell if that’s the case fair enough. I just mean don’t piddle out with a 114 page Kindle download like many people seem to do these days.Feb 17, 2019, 11:13 AMCurt DoolittleThe courses are an attempt to cut the book so that I don’t have to provide background on every fucking thing, just write declaratively.Feb 17, 2019, 11:13 AMCurt Doolittleum… no. I can write 114 pages in a couple of days without much effort. At this point about ten to twenty pages a day (not close to rothbard’s 25). The problem is that my work evolved over time and I have to make it consistent and remove things I repeat often. So it’s just basically ‘editing’.Feb 17, 2019, 11:14 AMYiannis KontinopoulosWhy attempt to cut down the repetition?
