Today I will tell you how to remain calm in this world
while achieving the highest results.
Most often, people think like this:
when I am ready — then I will start taking action.
This is all well and good when we are talking about your inner world.
But if your goal is to achieve something in the external world,
and this includes many different things: relationships, business, money, work, leisure…
even simple pleasures, which are also important,
because happiness and joy are precisely what encourage us to be more positive and relaxed, - then the old model will not work.
A tense person will never strive for something
that goes beyond familiar boundaries.
So how can you remain calm in this world
and achieve the highest results?
It is important to feel that this world is like an ocean.
You have probably heard it — it is on everyone’s lips now:
our world has a wave-like nature.
This wave-like nature is everywhere.
If you do not feel it,
your actions proceed as if blindly.
You wonder: why did everything work out today,
while yesterday nothing worked out,
even though you did exactly the same things?
Tomorrow you will do the same thing — and once again it will not work.
Then the day after tomorrow it will.
And you do not understand why.
Because you think that the wave-like nature matters
only when you are engaged in inner work.
But in external work, supposedly, everything is completely different.
But that is not so.
You need to tune in to this “ocean”
that surrounds everything you see and feel.
The external world also has a wave structure:
rising — falling, rising — falling.
And you need to be in tune with this phenomenon.
This allows you not to waste your personal energy.
I have already spoken many times about the eagle,
which, essentially, expends almost no energy,
yet soars in the sky all day,
because it catches rising air currents —
in other words, waves.
Everything in nature is arranged so that
everyone uses the energy of this world to act.
For example, a salmon does not simply swim stupidly against the current. Although that is how it may seem.
Scientists call this Kármán vortex street exploitation.
In human terms — riding turbulence.
Behind every rock, branch, or ledge, a vortex moving in the opposite direction forms,
which salmon and many similar fish use.
I will even say more — you have something to learn from these fish…
When something does not work out for you,
you must understand: you are simply not on the wave right now.
You need to relax
and wait for the wave to gain strength.
And then everything will work out for you.
That is exactly how surfers swim.
If there is no wave, there is no point in paddling.
You need to wait for the wave to appear.
This is, essentially, a special way of thinking.
Not thinking that you are obliged to “work your tail off” all the time.
But understanding that you are a being floating in the ocean.
When the wave comes — you act.
When the wave recedes — you rest.
This is a principle, a law of life.
If you force your way ahead — you exhaust yourself.
And now there are many motivational videos along the lines of:
“come on, get up, if you do not want to — go, if you cannot — do it.”
Nature does not work that way.
If an animal or a person living in nature falls ill,
they relax, rest, and sometimes even fast.
No one forces their way forward.
And when everything is going well for you,
when there is an upswing of energy,
that is when you can train,
play sports, and work actively.
It is very popular now to work at night —
until two or three in the morning.
But this directly contradicts what I am saying.
People stay up late,
and then realize themselves that they are unproductive,
that it is destroying them.
It is more correct to go to sleep at night.
This is the time to gather energy.
And in the morning, when your energy has been replenished,
is precisely when you should do all the useful work.
You have heard the word “rhythms” many times.
The sun rises and sets.
The moon waxes and wanes.
Why is astrology so developed now?
Because it reminds people of things
they have forgotten.
It really works.
If it did not work, astrology simply would not exist.
Many people now look at lunar calendars,
checking where the Sun is and where the Moon is.
Because all of this concerns the wave-like nature.
Everything moves in waves.
Even the zodiac signs are arranged this way:
a fire sign, an air sign, a water sign —
and then everything repeats.
Up — down.
Up — down.
When you take this into account,
you achieve maximum results
not when you force your way forward,
but when you live in harmony with the world.
Goal:
Stop acting blindly, reduce inner tension,
and begin taking the right actions at the right time,
using the energy of the world rather than burning through your own.
Step 1. Pause
Sit or stand in a way that is comfortable for you.
Close your eyes.
Take three calm breaths.
With each exhalation, say silently to yourself:
“I am not rushing”.
Feel:
You do not need to prove, achieve, or win anything right now.
You simply are.
Step 2. The Image of the Ocean
Imagine that your entire external world is
an enormous ocean.
Not water, but a space of events, people, activities, and opportunities.
This ocean is alive. It breathes.
It rises and falls.
Say to yourself:
“I am in the ocean of life”.
Step 3. Awareness of the Wave
Now ask yourself a question (without searching for the answer with your mind):
“What wave am I on right now?”
Do not analyze.
Just feel.
There is no “bad” or “good” here.
There is only a phase.
Step 4. Permission Not to Go Against the Wave
If you feel a downturn, tell yourself:
“I allow myself not to force things”
“I allow myself to wait it out”
Feel the tension beginning to leave.
You are no longer fighting the ocean.
You are in it.
If you feel an upswing, simply acknowledge it:
“Now is the time to act”
But without a burst. Without force.
Step 5. Attunement
Imagine that you are not a swimmer, but a surfer.
You do not create the wave.
You catch it.
Say silently:
“When the wave comes — I act”
“When the wave recedes — I rest”
Feel how this changes your inner state.
A calm confidence appears.
Without haste. Without laziness. Without struggle.
Step 6. Anchor in the Body
Take a gentle breath in.
As you exhale, slightly lower your shoulders.
This will become your anchor.
In life, when you feel that things are “not moving forward,”
simply lower your shoulders and remember the ocean.
Conclusion
Say to yourself:
“I live in the rhythm of the world”
“I use the wave rather than breaking myself”
Take one final calm breath in and out.
Open your eyes.
How to Use the Practice
— and life will become quieter, more precise, and more productive.
10 affirmations.
Once again, scientifically, about salmon.
This is merely information to help you feel the WISDOM OF NATURE behind it.
1. Hydrodynamics of the Salmon’s Body
Salmon (genus Salmo, Oncorhynchus) have a spindle-shaped body with a low drag coefficient.
Key parameters:
The body shape is optimized for swimming in turbulent flows, not in still water.
2. Use of Kármán Vortices (Kármán Vortex Street)
When a flow of water passes around an obstacle (a rock or ledge), a series of vortices forms behind it — the so-called Kármán vortex street.
Salmon are able to:
This phenomenon is called vortex-induced propulsion — movement powered by the energy of the flow rather than by their own muscles.
Experiments (Liao et al., 2003) showed:
3. Muscle Type and Energy Use
Salmon have well-developed:
Strategy:
This reduces lactic acid buildup and prevents rapid exhaustion.
4. Tail Function (Caudal Fin)
The salmon’s tail is:
Function:
The tail creates a jet wake, directed at an angle, which:
The efficiency of the salmon’s tail stroke is among the highest of anadromous fish.
5. Role of the Fins
Pectoral fins:
Dorsal and anal fins:
Important: the fins do not create the main thrust; they control the flows around the body.
6. Lateral Line and Sensory Perception
Salmon possess a developed lateral line — a system of mechanoreceptors (neuromasts).
It allows them to:
In fact, salmon sense the hydrodynamic map of their environment in real time.
7. Jumps over Rapids and Waterfalls
A jump involves:
Average parameters:
Unsuccessful attempts alternate with rest in backflows.
8. Summary
Salmon use:
It does not “defeat” the current with its muscles.
It draws energy from it.

Practice “Tuning in to the Wave”
Goal:
Stop acting blindly, reduce inner tension,
and begin taking the right actions at the right time,
using the energy of the world rather than burning through your own.

Step 3. Awareness of the Wave
Now ask yourself a question (without searching for the answer with your mind):
“What wave am I on right now?”
Do not analyze.
Just feel.
- Is there an upswing right now?
- Or a feeling of heaviness, resistance, or fatigue?
- Do you want to act, or do you want silence?
There is no “bad” or “good” here.
There is only a phase.
Step 4. Permission Not to Go Against the Wave
If you feel a downturn, tell yourself:
“I allow myself not to force things”

How to Use the Practice
- Do it once a day (in the morning or before important decisions)
- Or when something is not working out
- Just 3–7 minutes is enough
— and life will become quieter, more precise, and more productive.
10 affirmations.
- I feel the rhythms of the world and act at the right time.
- I do not go against life — I use its wave.
- When an upswing comes, my actions are precise and effective.
- When a downturn comes, I calmly rest and replenish my energy.
- I achieve results without struggle or inner force.
- My strength lies in attunement, not tension.
- I trust the rhythms of life and my inner sense of timing.
- I allow events to unfold naturally and at the right time.
- Each wave leads me to the desired result.
- I live in harmony with the world, and therefore receive more.
Once again, scientifically, about salmon.
This is merely information to help you feel the WISDOM OF NATURE behind it.
1. Hydrodynamics of the Salmon’s Body
Salmon (genus Salmo, Oncorhynchus) have a spindle-shaped body with a low drag coefficient.
Key parameters:
- streamlined body → minimizes frontal resistance
- lateral compression → stability in the current
- rigid yet flexible spine → efficient transmission of the muscular wave
The body shape is optimized for swimming in turbulent flows, not in still water.
2. Use of Kármán Vortices (Kármán Vortex Street)
When a flow of water passes around an obstacle (a rock or ledge), a series of vortices forms behind it — the so-called Kármán vortex street.
Salmon are able to:
- position themselves behind an obstacle
- orient their bodies at an angle to the main flow
- synchronize their body movements with the frequency of the vortices
This phenomenon is called vortex-induced propulsion — movement powered by the energy of the flow rather than by their own muscles.
Experiments (Liao et al., 2003) showed:- oxygen consumption decreases to 30–50%
- active work by the tail muscles is minimal
- the body oscillates passively, “catching” the vortices
3. Muscle Type and Energy Use
Salmon have well-developed:
- red muscles (slow, aerobic) — for maintaining position over long periods
- white muscles (fast, anaerobic) — for short accelerations and jumps
Strategy:
- 80–90% of the time → red muscles (energy conservation)
- brief phases → white muscles (burst, jump, breaking through the flow)
This reduces lactic acid buildup and prevents rapid exhaustion.
4. Tail Function (Caudal Fin)
The salmon’s tail is:
- broad
- rigid
- has a high area-to-mass ratio
Function:
- not continuous paddling
- impulse thrust
The tail creates a jet wake, directed at an angle, which:
- reduces resistance
- increases thrust efficiency
The efficiency of the salmon’s tail stroke is among the highest of anadromous fish.
5. Role of the Fins
Pectoral fins:
- act as hydrodynamic stabilizers
- regulate the body’s angle of attack
Dorsal and anal fins:
- prevent yawing and rotation
- stabilize the body in turbulent flow
Important: the fins do not create the main thrust; they control the flows around the body.
6. Lateral Line and Sensory Perception
Salmon possess a developed lateral line — a system of mechanoreceptors (neuromasts).
It allows them to:
- measure local pressure changes
- distinguish the speed and direction of microcurrents
- detect vortices without visual contact
In fact, salmon sense the hydrodynamic map of their environment in real time.
7. Jumps over Rapids and Waterfalls
A jump involves:
- accumulating kinetic energy in the strong current below the rapid
- a sharp anaerobic burst of power
- precise calculation of the entry angle
Average parameters:
- jump height: up to 3–3.5 m
- launch speed: up to 6–7 m/s
- duration of effort: < 1 sec
Unsuccessful attempts alternate with rest in backflows.
8. Summary
Salmon use:
- passive hydrodynamic stabilization
- exploitation of flow vortices
- an energetically optimized muscular strategy
- sensory integration of flow through the lateral line
It does not “defeat” the current with its muscles.
It draws energy from it.
