NEW: China officially opens the world’s tallest bridge, completing the project in under 4 years.
The bridge features a restaurant at the top, a whopping 2600 ft above the river.
The bridge not only cuts a 2-hour drive to 2 minutes, but also features as a theme park with a glass skywalk, a high-speed glass elevator, and a waterfall off the edge of the bridge.
Visitors can also bungee jump off of it.
The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge is 2050 feet above the river and spans 4600 feet over the river.
Insane.
I can't stop thinking about this poem...
The final two lines bear repeating:
And make the ordinary come alive for them. The extraordinary will take care of itself.
How often have you been convinced that your joy, contentment, and fulfillment were on the other side of some extraordinary achievement?
• I'll be content when I get that promotion.
• I'll be fulfilled when I make director.
• I'll be joyful when I find a partner.
This "when, then" psychology traps our happiness in a conditional statement:
You get to be happy when you achieve that thing.
In a culture that obsesses over the extraordinary, there's much to be gained through simply shifting your focus to celebrate the ordinary.
How can you make the ordinary come alive today?
Every single thing you do today is something your 90-year-old self will wish they could go back and do.
That simple walk. That feeling of satisfaction when you figure out a tricky problem. That smile from a friend. That laugh from your child. That workout you wanted to skip. That conversation with your parents.
That ordinary moment you're tempted to ignore.
All of it.
So, the next time you find yourself wanting to skip through to the other side—to the end, the goal, the finish line:
Stop. Pause. And breathe it in.
This is it. This is real. This is life.
Make the ordinary come alive and the extraordinary will take care of itself.

I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore.
This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.
This is truly insane:
On February 20, JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon sold $234 million worth of $JPM stock.
On February 22, Warren Buffett disclosed a record $334 BILLION cash balance.
30 trading days later, the Nasdaq 100 crashed -24%.
How did they know?
(a thread)
A lot of marriages & sex lives DRY UP after kids because it becomes all about the kids.
It becomes only MOMMY & DADA not MAN & WIFE.
•No date nights.
•No fun, laughter, & passion.
The enemy loves SEXLESS MARRIAGES as much as he loves SEX OUTSIDE OF MARRIAGE.

How?
A/ Massive Corporate Tax Cuts
B/ Gut the IRS and corporate financial oversight to reduce taxes further.
C/ Deregulate to allow corporations to operate untethered to increase profitability.
D/ Drill baby Drill
The demand side policies take effect quicker than the supply side, So… as cyclical deflation takes hold in 6 months or so… they plan to respond quickly with:
Loose Monetary Policy switching back from QT-> QE
