8/ Most misery is predictable.

Addiction.
Envy.
Unreliability.
Ego.
Failure to learn.

Avoid these consistently…

And your odds of a good life improve dramatically.

Simple.

Not easy.

But simple.

7/ One mental trick to avoid disaster:

Ask yourself:

“Where would I likely fail or destroy my life?”

Then never go there.

Inversion thinking.

Sometimes the best way to succeed…

Is simply avoiding stupidity.

Maybe the biggest paradox of all:

Life becomes more meaningful
when you accept nothing is guaranteed.

Impermanence is what makes everything matter.
