@unusual_whales Lithium batteries explode all the time, there are thousands of videos of smaller devices like smartphones and e-bikes doing the same thing. Just on a smaller scale.
🔷 "All the benefits in life come from compound interest - relationship, money, habits - anything of importance.”
1 run won’t make you fit
1 rep won’t make you big
1 investment won’t make you rich
But 1000 iterations will.
Consistency & compounding will change your life.
I think about this twice a day.
Every morning when I sit down to read & then when I sit down to write, I say to myself,
"Accept the initial agitation."
When you try to focus, Andrew Huberman explains, "the brain circuits that turn on first are of the stress system."
Meaning:
"The agitation and stress that you feel at the beginning of something—when you're trying to lean into it and you can't focus—is just a recognized gate.
You have to pass through that gate to get to the focus component."
There's a common misconception, Huberman continues,
"The misunderstanding around how certain brain circuits work has led to this idea that there's some secret entry point—maybe marked 'flow' on the door—and there's a trampoline up to that door, and you just open that door, and you're immediately in [a deep state of focus].
And nothing could be further from the truth."
The truth is:
"There is a gate of entry. You have to wade through some sewage before you can swim in clear water. That's the way I always think about it."
I once told Andrew that I say to myself, "accept the initial agitation," every time I sit down to read or write, and he said, "the agitation is indeed the doorway to the whole process."

I don’t get these morons who somehow justify paying 40% more to live in California and in exchange, they only get +200% more days where they can go outside.

The era of Artificial Intelligence is here, and boy are people freaking out.
Fortunately, I am here to bring the good news: AI will not destroy the world, and in fact may save it.
