Great summary. Improve your life (& thereby those connected to you & society) . So doable. Baby steps if necessary but start and then keep going. Please

This man changed the game:

Dr. Peter Attia.

He dedicated his life to figuring out how humans can increase their lifespan & live to 100+.

Here are 5 game-changing habits he discovered (that you can start right now):

I just realized that the word “seven” has ‘even’ in it.

That’s odd.

You can think of God & Devil if you like as simply the Good & the Evil in and around you. Allow the Good, the light shining through in the crack, to hold & guide you through. Grow into the Good. Become it.

Comfort Challenge: Learn to Eye Gaze 👇

It’s always a hilarious and valuable exploration of getting more comfortable with discomfort.

Hints:

1. Focus on one eye and be sure to blink occasionally so you don’t look like a psychopath or get your ass kicked.

2. In conversation, maintain eye contact when you are speaking. It’s easy to do while listening.

3. Practice with people bigger or more confident than yourself. If a passerby asks you what the hell you’re staring at, just smile and respond, “Sorry about that. I thought you were an old friend of mine.”

Spot on

[Tim Ferriss @tferriss]

I once asked my mom how she decided when to have her first child, little ol’ me. The answer was simple: “It was something we wanted, and we decided there was no point in putting it off. The timing is never right to have a baby.” And so it is.

For all of the most important things, the timing always sucks. Waiting for a good time to quit your job? The stars will never align and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn’t conspire against you, but it doesn’t go out of its way to line up all the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. “Someday” is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro and con lists are just as bad. If it’s important to you and you want to do it “eventually,” just do it and correct course along the way.

"The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior 'righteous indignation'."

Why read a self-help book published in 2023 when you could read one that was a best seller for 1,500 years?

This is the Consolation of Philosophy, written by a man called Boethius while he was in prison, awaiting execution, in 523 AD.

Here are its 8 most powerful ideas:
