@newstart_2024 Been off Instagram for over 6 months! Great mental health benefits

[Brandon Luu, MD @BrandonLuuMD]

Literally just having a delusional golden retriever mindset measurably changes outcomes and physiology.

Sleep badly? Convince yourself you're well rested.
Stressful day? Convince yourself it's fuel.
Failed? Convince yourself it's useful data.

[Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. @hubermanlab]

The whole point of viewing morning sunlight is that it organizes your energy in time— which lets you organize what to do when across the day, and places you in the best possible stance to deal with any unanticipated demands on your energy. That’s why it’s the foundation.

[Bryan Johnson @bryan_johnson]

Two weeks without mobile internet improved mental health more than antidepressants and reversed roughly 10 years of attentional decline.

Screen time dropped 49% (314 to 161 min/day).

Repetition rewires your brain.

Repeat what you want to become.

This is neuroplasticity.

[Nicholas Fabiano, MD @NTFabiano]

Boredom is a luxury in a world of constant stimulation.

Boredom activates the Default Mode Network.

Crucial for organizing information, fostering creativity & building a sense of self.

[blue @bluewmist]

every time you replace “this is hard” with “what’s the first step?” you shift brain activity from your amygdala (fear) to your prefrontal cortex (problem-solving).
that’s neuroplasticity in real time.

[Bryan Johnson @bryan_johnson]

Kindness is peak human performance and high status.

Kindness requires metabolic abundance: the capacity to override primal impulses, regulate emotions, and extend empathy.

Meanness is dirty energy: high cortisol, inflammation and an exhausted executive function.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

Be humble. Be teachable. The universe is bigger than your view of the universe. There's always room for a new idea.

[David Sinclair @davidasinclair]

People ask for one rule to live by: move daily, sleep regularly, build muscle, avoid sugar, seek polyphenols, treat ultra-processed foods like poison, find a supportive partner, call your parents, and have purpose in life

I know. That’s the point

The pattern nobody sees:

Eat inflammatory food. Feel anxious. Take anxiety meds. Gain weight from meds. Eat more to cope. Develop diabetes. Take more meds. Get sicker. Repeat. The side effects of your medication require more medication. Meanwhile the root cause is still on your plate. Break the cycle or become it.

[Dr. Dominic Ng @DrDominicNg]

A pattern I’ve noticed in successful people
1. Relentless persistence - willing to bang their head against a wall a million times
2. Ruthless prioritisation - able to focus on what matters and ignore what doesn’t
3. Irrational self-belief - delusional about their own capabilities

[Nicholas Fabiano, MD @NTFabiano]

People who don't drink enough water have stronger cortisol spikes when stressed.

Stay hydrated.

[Machiavelli Bot @UnmodernmanBot]

Control your mornings, and the day bends in your favor. Control your attention, and your life bends in your favor. Everything outside of discipline is manipulation; the world profits from your distraction. You profit from your structure.

[Blake Burge @blakeaburge]

Underrated life advice: Obsess over your own progress. Get so busy improving yourself that you don’t have time to complain, gossip, or compare. Peace isn’t found in the absence of noise. It’s earned by being too focused on your own growth to hear it.

[woo woo woman @witti_indi]

Delayed gratification is so important for recovering from burnout & healing the nervous system. Waiting until midday to check your phone, waiting a week to open packages, resets from social media, taking the longer route home after work, etc. Patience and slowness is grounding.

[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

Only the disciplined ones in life are free.
