If you want to dramatically improve your quality of life, learn to recover your attention quickly after something steals it. Social media arguments, stressful thoughts, minor inconveniences. Most of it is noise that steals hours to days of enjoyment. Breathe and let it go.

Yesterday, I had the privilege of speaking at the @a16z American Dynamism Summit with the builders, operators, and investors helping shape the next era of exploration.

NASA has a clear mandate under President Trump’s national space policy: Return American astronauts to the Moon by the end of 2028, build an enduring presence there, and ensure American leadership in the most important strategic domain. Achieving that requires focus and disciplined execution.

In the weeks ahead, the Artemis II crew will travel around the Moon. It is the next step toward returning humans to the lunar surface and building a lasting presence there.

To reach that goal, we’ve recently made some changes to the Artemis program: Increasing launch cadence, standardizing hardware, and adding missions that allow us to test systems, reduce risk, and build confidence before landing.

This is the same approach that carried the United States from Mercury to Gemini to Apollo. In the 1960s we launched often, learned from every mission, and improved with each step forward. That is how you build real capability in deep space.

Yesterday, I also announced NASA Force, a new initiative with @USOPM to bring exceptional engineering and technical talent into NASA and help rebuild the core competencies that make missions like this possible.

We want to open the search far and wide to attract the best of the best and incentivize them to leverage their skills to maintain American superiority in space.

NASA changed the world in 1969 by concentrating the nation’s best talent on the hardest problems imaginable.

We are doing it again.

[The Vital Path @PathOfVitality]

Unhealthy addictions numb you. Find healthy addictions that regulate you and calm you. If you’re going to crave something, crave things that build you.

Try getting addicted to:

-Morning walks (sunlight + silence)
-Strength training and yoga
-Solitude without guilt
-Real conversations instead of scrolling
-Deep work sessions
-Creating > consuming
-Learning a skill
-Reading 20 pages a day
-Journaling your thoughts out
Meditation
-Spending time in nature
-Cleaning your space
-Cooking and music
-Saying “no”
-Sleep

Self-improvement is a gateway drug into entrepreneurship because you start seeing life as a system you can optimize. You start to believe that if you don't like something about your life, you can change it. And since the source of most people's problems is money, you stop waiting for a raise and start building something.

Joe Rogan: "You need to do something with your life and make it more interesting... You only have one f*cking life. You're gonna waste your life working for somebody?"

[The Shift Journal @TheShiftJournal]

Andrew Huberman: "Someone I really respect said this, 'There are basically two kinds of people in life. Winners and losers.' And the definition is this losers take things that happen to them... and the wallow and they use it for self or outward destruction."

"Winners take whatever they feel, it sucks, and they transmute it into things that are good for themselves and for the world."
