🌍 Trying to save the world and have the time of my life doing it
✨ writer & explorer @PADI @ScubaDivingMag @EcoWatch @AlertDiver #binders#writingcommunity
I’m increasingly convinced that the key to life is being unapologetically yourself. When you edit your personality, you attract relationships that need constant maintenance. Stop filtering yourself to be liked. Right ones will stick. Wrong ones will walk. That’s a blessing.
In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.
It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.
There should be no profit in education or healthcare.
"I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little ..." ~ Tom Stoppard
"What approaches can we take with our writing today so that a reader will recall our words—or at least how our words made them feel—long after time has dimmed the memory for everyone else?"

The faulty belief that holds the widest number of people back is, "I don't want to start unless I know 100% it will work." And that's not how life works. First, nothing is guaranteed. Second, if it works for 100% of people 100% of the time, then it's not an opportunity. It's a commodity.
The less likely something is to work (and the more people who misunderstand it, and don't take action as a result), the more upside potential there is for you.
As you acquire skills & build wealth, you will start to intentionally *LOOK* for these opportunities. The ones that have <10% chance of working. Even <1%. These are the ones most people misunderstand, or don't pursue because "they're too risky"—which is why they generate outsized returns for you (when you're successful).

The hospital in Georgia didn’t “save a life”
They had that chance when Adriana Smith sought medical care. They could have saved her & her fetus.
What they did was carry out a medical experiment without consent.
They failed her in life & then robbed her of dignity in death 🧵
When I needed a hysterectomy due to severe endometriosis & adenomyosis, I was repeatedly denied
Told I “might want kids.”
Told I “might meet a man who wants kids”
I was left disabled & bed ridden, yet the system continued to try & save my diseased uterus against my will 🧵
Georgia O'Keeffe
She valued silence so deeply, she often went entire days without speaking.
Rising with the sun, she painted alone in the stillness.
Her studio sat in the remote desert—surrounded by nature.
Don’t hide from solitude. Lean into it.
Why do humans get stuck in Trauma while wild animals recover naturally?
In the 1970s, Dr. Peter Levine noticed something remarkable:
Wild animals face death daily yet don’t develop PTSD, depression, or anxiety.
His discovery revolutionized how we understand trauma forever:🧵
