Duke Stump | The Beauty Of Not Knowing
vimeo.comliminality and knowing vs. doing
Duke walks us through how ‘not knowing’ served him in his life.
Some highlights:
Do it because it ‘feels right’
Less focus around what’s the logical path, and more on the emotional - what feels right
Sit still and listen vs give into the urge to do something
Go from doing to being
Replace what’s your purpose with what makes you curious? - Notice the difference in how these make you feel
Keep returning to this one burning question - what does the world need most that i am/we are most uniquely qualified to deliver - when you can answer this, you can hit the go button
The concept of Santosha - means complete contentment in yoga philosophy. Relation to Equanimity: Allows acceptance of all circumstances, including pleasure and pain.
Some quotes (we love quotes)
“It’s become a courageous act to love who you are”
“My jam is not about driving traffic, doing the best acquisitions, crm. I wake up in the morning to find the soul of the place, establish it and celebrate it”
“I don’t really have a point of view about data and the known, and how everything you do is directly gonna drive revenue.”
“To know is to be in a prison
To not know is to be free” - Christian Murdy
- The digital world has almost no friction.
- The physical world is full of it.
- And in certain curated space s - like the West Village, or your AI companion -friction has been turned into something you can pay to remove.

wait but don’t.
You'll find your answer in the silence
If not,
we do not speak the same language.

Title: ‘You know’
Recently, one of my private meditation students asked me, “What do you feel like when you meditate?” Right away I said, “Ordinary. Beautifully ordinary.”
Beautifully ordinary
