    YOU ARE THE FUTURE (Birthday Special)

    Happy Birthday America, and Happy Birthday to ME!
    What’s good? This is your annual MAIM TIME birthday episode special where I reiterate all my usual sheeeeiiiit about identity, coming to accept and love all of your identity, self-actualization, being the bridge between the East and West, spirituality, and more.
    One juicy indulgent hour of stream of consciousness, I know you need it hard. And I missed you. Hard.


    YOU ARE THE FUTURE.

    YOU ARE THE ECONOMIC, CULTURAL, SPIRITUAL REVOLUTION FOR THE EAST AND WEST.

    JETSET AROUND THE WORLD BUILDING EMPIRES.

    YOU CAN WORK FUCKING MIRACLES.

    RAISE THE DEAD, HEAL THE SICK, MAKE THE BLIND SEE.

    USE AI TO TURN FIVE LOAVES OF BREAD TO FEED TENS OF THOUSANDS.

    YOU CAN BRING HEALING TO THE NATIONS.

    OUR ANCESTORS ARE WATCHING OVER US.

    LET’S MAKE THEM PROUD AND BRING THEM GREAT HONOR

    Don’t let any m**********r ever tell you you’re not worthy, you’re not capable, you’re not good for anything, you’ll never amount to anything. PROVE THEM WRONG.

    You can prove them wrong because I AM A MIRACLE. I SHOULDN'T BE HERE.

    I HAD TO GO THROUGH ALL THIS SHIT AND MAKE THIS GOOFY ASS PODCAST TO MEET YOU ONE DAY AND TELL YOU:

    YOU ARE WORTHY. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU.

    So one day, we can meet on a fucking island retreat one day and celebrate in the never-ending journey to excellence, greatness, and glory.

    AWAKENING THE SLEEPING DRAGON IN ALL ASIAN DIASPORA

    AWAKENING THE SLEEPING DRAGON IN ALL ASIAN DIASPORA

    YOUR DEAD ANCIENT ANCESTORS HAVE BEEN WAITING THOUSANDS OF YEARS FOR YOU TO REALIZE THERE IS A SLEEPING DRAGON INSIDE OF YOU
    YOU NEED TO BE THE ONE TO AWAKEN IT TODAY


    #072: I usually describe this podcast as a show about Asian diaspora overcoming identity struggle to become the best versions of ourselves. The tagline is something I’ve revised over the past several years. But I realize, there needs to be a purpose or a vision.
    This is my current vision:
    The ultimate self-actualization of all Asian diaspora brothers and sisters worldwide, to raise the level of consciousness of the peoples of Asia, and thus consciousness for all humanity.

    We want one million Asian diaspora to dedicate themselves to improvement in every human metric, be it physical, financial, mental, cultural, creative, and so on.

    At least one million. It starts with you, one. Then there are 10 of us, then1 00, then 1000, then 10,000 and then 100,000. It’ll just take TIME. MAIM TIME.

    RISE PETER, KILL AND EAT: Why Jesus Is Not Enough *TRIGGER WARNING*

    LISTEN TO THE GREATEST MOST MIND-BLOWING MAIM TIME EPISODE SO FAR THIS YEAR! 🤯🔥

    #071. Listen to episodes of MAIM TIME on your podcast player of choice, or on YouTube.

    KILL AND EAT
    YOU MUST COMPETE

    Jesus is not enough for you to become the strongest most capable competitive version of yourself. Only you are.

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    I went to Jubilee Church in Seoul for New Years to listen to yet another solid sermon given by Pastor David Hwang. Like for the Christmas episode, I summarize his message and then give my own cheeky heretical twist to it.
    Acts 10:9-16
    Pastor David Hwang
    2023: Communion
    This episode will be taken into 3 parts:
    •Some domain knowledge about Christianity for those of you who didn't grow up in this shit like I did
    •The sermon content given by the pastor for the New Year service at Jubilee Church, his theme being Communion
    •My exposition upon Christianity and Pastor David's sermon, compounding the theme of Communion with Competition
    You're in competition with the entire world.
    The best communion is one with likeminded competitive people who will challenge each other to become better.

    #070 | The Gift of Competition

    #070 | The Gift of Competition

    Listen to episodes of MAIM TIME on your podcast player of choice, or on YouTube.
    This episode focuses on the importance of understanding competition as the basis of life and essential to nature, and why we must compete in order to become the best versions of ourselves in all aspects.

    HO HO HO! Merry Christmas, Good Will to All Men!
    This year, Santa Claus has a very special gift for you.

    No, it's not a shiny new Macbook or a super car, a mansion or a six-star luxury trip to Paris.

    This is the gift of... COMPETITION.

    It means you have to compete with everyone else in the planet to get all the good things in life that you truly desire.

    If you understand this, and you give it your all, you will succeed -- and you won't need me or anyone else to get you any gift. You can buy that Macbook, that super car, that mansion and that trip yourself.
    But here's the catch: Now that the cat's out of the bag -- yes, my big red sack -- and Pandora's Box is open, there will no longer be NICE and NAUGHTY lists going forward.
    There are just WINNERS, and LOSERS.
    Compete, and become a winner.
    But what if you're a loser?

    You don't want to face the harsh reality of life and take the necessary actions to become the best version of yourself?
    GET F'KED.

    HO HO HO! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

    The name's TIME.... MAIM TIME.

    It’s me again.
    They thought I was dead.
    Some said I escaped to North Korea.
    They thought I was in jail, or worse:
    They thought I went back to college to finish my theology degree.

    But you can't kill me.
    I'm back, and better than ever.
    And harder.

    I've returned from a cheeky 5-month hiatus.
    The last episode I posted was on my birthday in July, and I was celebrating 5000 downloads.

    I just got an email last week saying MAIM TIME hit 6000 total downloads. Doesn't include YouTube video hits. I haven't posted in 5 months. Even though I haven’t been actively promoting MAIM TIME, I've gained the slightest bit of traction. That's so valuable. I can't give up on this. Thanks to those who've been listening!

    So, what's going on Maim? Why haven’t you been updating?

    Let me tell you a story.

    Back in July, I flew on a private jet to Jakarta for a cheeky 4-day business trip. It blew my mind. My life hasn't been the same since…

    Happy birthday America!
    Thanks to all you MAIM TIMERS, we finally reached over 5000 downloads for MAIM TIME! This is a big milestone. Every download counts. You count.

    I count, but I didn't always think I did.
    10 years ago, I tried to take my own life. I'm glad I didn't, because then I wouldn't be talking to you right now.
    Today, I'm 30 years old. I'm officially no longer a twenty-something.
    It was an amazing decade. I'm grateful for every year of life up until now.
    ODESZA - Boy
    So as I do every year, I'm going to go stream of consciousness on a buncha stuff:
    Identity.
    Korea.
    America.
    Freedom.
    Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
    Tune in and listen to me go FULL MAIM TIME.
    NOTE: I'm throwing a huge dirty thirty party on Friday, July 15 in Seoul. If you're a listener, you're totally invited. Email me at maim@maimtime.com or follow & DM on Instagram for details.

Appreciate the Candor

Maim is very energetic and after putting the podcast on delay for a couple of years, I finally got around to it and downloaded it.
I had to install iTunes just to download it (wish it was on youtube) but I digress. It is great to hear his unfiltered voice about life goals and about how to live life. I recommend others to listen to just understand more about Korea, his thoughts about life and how his experiences can teach you another perspective about life.
