The only truly wasted time is time spent wishing you were somewhere else.

From Sam Altman:

“Adjusted for the subjective increase in how fast time passes, life is half over by 23 or 24. Don't waste time."

A simple visual for kids (and adults) to understand delayed gratification.

Really difficult to argue with this one

Bryan Johnson reveals the key to a healthy body is consistency

“The body is a clock. It loves consistency. Your body runs certain biochemical processes on specific time frames”

“If your bedtime is 10 PM and you miss it and go to bed at 2 AM, you might say ‘I’ll make up for it, I’ll sleep until 10 to get my full eight hours.’ It doesn’t work like that. At 10 PM your body has a trash collector that rolls through and picks up the trash, and if you're not in bed at 10 the trash collector doesn’t come and the trash accumulates in the body”

I sat with my 95-year-old grandma before she died last year, and she said a line to me I keep thinking on, "It goes incredibly fast. Faster than you think. And no matter what I say, you probably won't understand, honey. Until you're in my chair.”

There have been thousands of generations of humans, and you are alive to witness the first photo of a Sunset on another World.

This is a real photo of the sunset on Mars.

It just seems implausible this is what we are made of, essentially, nanotechnology about a billion years beyond anything we can design or make ourselves.

Stripe's new frontpage shows the scope of their ambition. A ticker for percent of global GDP! This is not a gimmick. Patrick and John have always thought in these terms.

@Budanov_Magneto The Kazakh and Kyrgyz population of Semirech'e fell from approximately 937,000 in 1916 to 670,000 in 1917. Many fled to China, but the exterminiation targeting men, women and children claimed a number of victims that reached the tens of thousands. https://t.co/9sdD8A71cW

The most high agency people I know immediately abandon paths that no longer serve them. No hesitation. Bad jobs. Dead relationships. Wrong cities.

Life's too short to stay on the wrong path.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I’m increasingly convinced that the willingness to change your mind is the ultimate sign of intelligence. The most impressive people I know change their minds often in response to new information. It’s like a software update. The goal isn't to be right. It's to find the truth.

[Friedrich Nietzsche Notebook @QuoteNietzsche]

what a line

[Natural Philosophy @Naturalphilosy]

A man on a thousand-mile walk has to forget his ultimate goal and say to himself every morning, 'Today I'm going to cover twenty-five miles and then rest up and sleep.'

— Leo Tolstoy, in a letter to his son

[James A. Furey @JamesAFurey]

One of the strongest arguments for teaching classic literature is simply this:

If students are never asked to inhabit minds from other times and cultures, they will confuse their own narrow historical moment with universal truth.

The canon is an antidote to chronological snobbery.
