Drugs for inspiration?

[madoctopus]

Just to make some obvious thing more obvious here...

Just because some people had breakthroughs and found inspiration from certain mind altering substances doesn't mean most people will experience the same. In other words, don't expect to build the next Microsoft or apple just because you do weed or shrooms or whatever. Being a pothead is very easy, building a business is not. The most important ingredient in Apple and Microsoft is not the drug the founders did but the hard work they put in.

Has anyone tried this tactic? I heard that Bill Gates had an acid trip that gave him the vision to take Microsoft in the right direction. Now I'm not condoning drug use in any way. It's just one of those things that fascinates my mind. What do you do for business inspiration?

Try this for inspiration instead.

Einstein's autopsy showed traces of LSD and DMT.
I think he was also an avid shroomer....

Adderall is probably the closest thing in real life to the movie Limitless - NZT.

Drugs offers short term inspiration no doubt about that.

But when the drug wears off, you are now a step backwards from where you want to be.

Mediation offers a long term awareness of "outside of the box" type creativity. I (as well as Einstein, Nikolai Tesla, Beethoven -- the list goes on) firmly believe that our conscious and subconscious minds have the ability to tap into what is called a super conscious And this is when you get that random light bulb idea.

Meditations each day keep creativity at bay.

adderall is a manufactured drug to even compare it to weed or psychedelics is pretty misguided

DMAE helps me concentrate for loooong periods of time. It keeps me focused. Different ppl respond to drugs differently.

EMD is not found in shrooms. LSD is synthetic. Hence he wasn't probably a shroomer

Very true actually. Learned that in college.

You guys are treating drugs like they will make you a genius. You should remember that Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were very smart and motivated before drugs. It isnt like drugs was their most important factor. Lots of people use drugs and guess what? There are only 1 Bill Gates and 1 Steve Jobs.

Obviously we do not treat drugs like that. Take some adderall, two 30 mg XR's. You'll be working for 24 hours straight and coming up with ideas left and right. I've used it for internet marketing too and you know what? I made a lot of money from CPA while taking adderall. I only took them a few times, but I made $$$ just from what I did while on it. I haven't done them in years, but yeah. You get the idea.

Why would you want to keep your creativity at bay? Thats the most backwards perception ever.

I can say for myself that using marijuana greatly improves my paranoia,
I then mentally become aware of, and focus, on important subjects...

I would say for myself, marijuana helps with motivation, perhaps not inspiration...

Whaaaat?

I meant DMT not EMD lol. It is found in Ahuyasca drink not in a shroom. LSD is a synthetic (man made) drug.

I think he meant also an avid shroomer, not in relation to the other two.

 

[johnnyd77]

hahahahahaaaa! lol bill gates doing drugs! And then telling people about it!!! that's comical. + for making me laugh.

actually, Steven Jobs used to do acid when he was young.

If you are looking for inspiration, smoke some pot here and there, maybe do mushrooms and once or twice go for acid. Start slow if you have never done any of those. They simply allow you to look at the world through a different perspective.

If you are looking to increase focus, mental output etc, don't use adderall (an amphetamine) look into the field of substances call Nootropics, specifically the class of substances called racetams. The most well known being piracetam.

Source: I run a nootropics company and I have experimented with recreational drugs

why would you spend ur hard earned money for coke or weed and litlle pleasure. it will be good for first 1-3y then u wont think about business or anything else than that and its hard to stop. some ppl is diffrent on weed one can do regular work when high, some be lazy and just sleep and play xbox.. so you not get any inspirations from drugs only big paranoia and diffrent problems. i tell you from expirience, better go and pay some girls
