@Markmanson You can take effective action and learn at the same time. In fact, I think it's one of the most effective ways to learn.

@Markmanson "What I face frees [me]." Thank you for that sentiment.

Coercion is not consent. It's not possible to be a "willing participant" in a manipulative dynamic.

@IAmMarinaWyss No social media apps or a commitment to never using any social media on your phone?

@bretcarpenter @Grady_Booch Intelligence is chemistry. Interesting thought.

@LewisHowes Walking outside, especially if I can be alone in nature.

@tferriss !@#$% "sitting next to," rather than being.

@thesamparr @myfirstmilpod @ShaanVP Indeed, marketing is senior to everything.

@LewisHowes Sticking a toothbrush with some toothpaste in my mouth, and I’m doing it right now.

@thdxr But I do scan the UPC codes of food I eat, when I eat it. Besides, it’s not about perfection, but progress& awareness around what I eat. It is ok to go over my target as long as my net avg caloric intake is low enough that week.

This is just not true. Narcissists, sociopaths, and selfish jerks, even that guy at the office competing for your job is definitely rooting for you to fail by any means. I am not saying that it's a dog-eat-dog world, but if you work in corporate, don't be naive.

[James Clear @JamesClear]

Nobody is rooting for you to fail.

Maybe you’ll succeed. Maybe you’ll fail. For the most part, nobody cares one way or the other.

This is a good thing! The world is big and you are small, and that means you can chase your dreams with little worry for what people think.

@VitalikButerin When you say you walk an average of >=6km each day, are you counting walking from your bed to the living room, or just your “fitness walks.” For example I have a FitBit that tells me my total distance per day, even if it’s not part of my prescribed fitness regime.

@elonmusk Dude, I do not want to go to the moon. I don’t need osteoporosis. I simply want to be able to pay the rent, have a job and eat quality food for the rest of my life on the planet earth. I would be happy again if I had a full-time job that pays my benefits, a living wage.

@ankurjain_2 #Bilt20 is a liquidity failure. You allowed a balance transfer of my previous rent to my new credit line, but are forcing a mandatory ACH every month from now on. Requiring twice my rent in one cycle is NOT helping renters. #BringBackCreditLine4RentPayments

[G.A.V. @The64v]

@HeyBilt I’m freaking out rn, as I just discovered my rent payments no longer use a credit line, but hit my bank?! There are easier ways to implement mortgage payments w/#Bilt20 other than upending the finances of renters in Bilt Alliance. #BringBackCreditLine4RentPayments

@sleepdiplomat How does he always manage to look fabulous in every appearance? What is his secret besides sleeping?
