@corkXC Oh no! Horrible news! What’s the deal? Flashback to the Ukrainian ski fire…. 😣

@stevemagness This is maddening. Thanks so much, Steve, for being a whistle blower on this bull shit. Every bit helps & you are playing an enormous part in sports reform

[Brad Stulberg @BStulberg]

Stop comparing yourself to other peoples’ perfect plans and perfect pictures and perfect workouts. Ninety-nine percent of that stuff is performative and fake.

The road to genuine excellence and well-being is windy and messy and often boring. This is just how it goes. Embrace it.

Parents: most important thing is car ride home.

Winning is a real thing. Losing is too. So is celebrating success and realizing areas for improvement. But most important is showing love regardless and reminding your kid their performance IS transient and is NOT their identity.

[Brad Stulberg @BStulberg]

With COVID-19 fueling an already bad social isolation and belonging problem, I fear "metaverse" technologies will ride the momentum and make things much worse.

Nothing replaces feeling someone's hand. The energy in a room. Lifting weights off the ground. Running on a trail.

@BStulberg @CrossFit @RozaEric Agreed on the great leadership…… 👌

@JuiceKowalczyk Congrats!!! 🥳

It's time for the world to quit protecting the egos and careers of men above the bodies souls and lives of women. @NWSL

@KamalaHarris You ate our hope for this. I agree, the situation is getting desperate.

ATTN Parents: I get asked this ALL THE TIME. I was a multi sport athlete until college, extremely low mileage. Don’t be afraid to say no to practices 5x a week, to all those camps and tournaments. Let your kids be kids and play lots of things. Plenty of time to specialize later!

A Netflix binge is a temporary escape from languishing, not a cure.

Passive engagement in a fictional world doesn't offer a lasting sense of meaning, mastery, or mattering.

Flourishing depends on active participation in the real world: creating, connecting, and contributing.

[Brad Stulberg @BStulberg]

Non-dual thinking is the ability to hold competing ideas at the same time. It is rare and important.

Some examples:

Art AND science
Hard work AND rest.
Self-discipline AND self-compassion.
Solitude AND community.
Mind AND body.
Happiness AND sadness.
Strength AND flexibility.

The Office of Madam Vice President-elect...✨✨✨

[Alex Holley @AlexHolleyFOX29]

A giant Eagle is now making its way down the streets of Philadelphia

[Brad Stulberg @BStulberg]

Joe Biden, a boy who was bullied because he couldn't speak, whose life was upended by such trauma and loss, who suffered despair that took him to the brink of suicide, is now president-elect of the United States. Wow. Just wow.

Those out there struggling: be patient, keep going.

[Dr. Kensa Gunter @DrKensa]

Worth a thousand words. My goodness, what a monumental moment. Madam Vice President. #RepresentationMatters
