@MKalemba03 @elonmusk @Tesla My uncle’s cybertruck lost steering response & brake assist (manual mode). Triple-redundant steer-by-wire should prevent this. Police cleared him, Tesla audit found nothing, data unavailable. @elonmusk – I wouldn’t get in this truck again, let alone drive it

Feb 2025: My Foundation Series Cyberbeast malfunctioned (manual driving). Steering wouldn’t respond, kept pulling right, brakes failed. Hit 8 parked cars. Thank God no ones hurt. Police: no ticket, said “I’ve seen this before.” Photo right after. @elonmusk @Tesla

How to be happy (no bullshit - just data)

Thought experiment: If you wanted to hurt a business, what would you do?

One of the first things: Remove all data.

Meanwhile, almost nobody has any data on their happiness.

Why?

How to create a Happiness P&L on your iPhone:

Step 1 - Create a table

If you have an iPhone, Apple notes is perfect for this.

Apple notes works better than a spreadsheet because it's frictionless -- which is key.

Make sure you pin it to the top of your notes to reduce further friction.

Step 2 - Log your mood

An average day = 5/10 mood.

If you hit a 7/10 or above, write down what caused it.

If you hit a 3/10 or below, write down what caused it.

Step 3 - Analyse your assets and liabilities

Over a month, you'll have 10-20 entries.

Over a year, you'll have 100-200 entries.

The beauty of this is you're now detached. It's just raw data of many present moments stacked together.

Look at the data like a happiness P&L.

Step 4 - Design environment and incentives

E.g.

If alcohol causes 50% of your negative mood -- you can design environment and incentives around removing this.

However, if partying with friends causes 50% of your positive mood -- you can design environment and incentives around doing this more often.

There's no right or wrong answers like the happiness gurus will suggest: There's just raw personalised data.

Now you have this raw personalised data -- you can think about it like an operations director managing a supply chain or a cash flow forecast.

-----

Why does this work?

1. The problem with happiness gurus: What makes one person happy might make someone else miserable.

The happiness industry wants to sell a magic pill (e.g. Yoga, meditation, exercise, new diet, new journalling technique etc) -- which is why it fails because it doesn't take into consideration individual differences.

One person may find Yoga fixes their anxiety -- another person may prefer to watch paint dry than do Yoga.

2. Do not forget the forgetting paradox.

The big problem people face with happiness is the forgetting paradox: We forget how much we forget because by definition -- we've forgotten it.

By tracking your mood -- you can see just how many times something made you miserable or happy. It's no longer discarded into the memory abyss.

Each month and year, you can turn into a private equity firm -- but for your happiness: Strip the liabilities and double down on the assets.

The system begins to compound. If something has made you happy or miserable 20+ times, it's impossible to bullshit yourself anymore.

Without this data -- it's so easy to bullshit yourself.

You would not run a business without any data.

Why are you running your life without any data?

-----

Nuance:

When I use the term happiness in this context here - I mean increasing your average mood per day out of 10.

The goal isn't to have a laborious debate around the many meanings of the word "happiness".

If your mood is an 8/10 or above each day -- that sounds like a fantastic life.
