When OG Anunoby was 8, he begged his father, a finance professor, for a basketball hoop.
Dr. Anunoby asked his son what sort of return he expected on his investment.
OG's pitch: buy it, and I'll practice every single day.
20 years later and those returns are still compounding.

Anthony Bourdain's estate has released a statement on why it supports A24's new biopic:

"Anthony Bourdain’s legacy is meaningful to millions of people. He was a man who valued authenticity above all else and would have been both moved and baffled by the world's curiosity about his life.

"We chose to support TONY because it is not a standard biopic and doesn't attempt to summarize a life. Guided by the vision of director Matt Johnson, the film depicts one transformative summer in 1975 in Provincetown, Massachusetts. It is an interpretation as that part of Tony's life will always remain somewhat unknown.

"We appreciate the portrayal of Tony's complexity, his intellectual appetite and his conviction -- qualities that eventually took him around the globe and endeared him to so many. We hope this film serves as a reminder that every journey has a start, and that audiences see the beginnings of the man who taught us how to be better explorers on our own paths."

In 1953, George and Barbara Bush lost their daughter Robin to leukemia. She was three years old. Barbara's hair turned white that year — she was 28. By anyone's expectation, mine included, their grief should have defined the rest of their lives.

Instead they made a decision: they would wake up every morning and be happy. It's an almost astounding level of mental discipline. The ability not to ignore your horrible loss but to say life is not over. I can choose how I feel.

It's not a coincidence that he became president and she raised one. More importantly, they stayed married 73 years. "You have two choices," she said decades later. "You can be happy or you can be unhappy. Just choose to be happy." This is what's key: that mindset wasn't influencing the outcome. The mindset was the outcome.

We tend to think of resilience as a trait people have, but it looks more like a series of small decisions, made unglamorously, that become habitual. Eventually, you'll even forget you're making them. The Bushes figured this out 70 years before the placebo sleep researchers did. Worth taking seriously.
