A rule that will lower your anxiety:
Don't replay conversations you can't change, and don't pre-live ones that haven't happened. Focus on the next right action. Most stress comes from living everywhere except the present.
That’s the part nobody tells you growing up, your brain’s first job is protection, not peace.
It scans for danger, replays mistakes, anticipates worst-case scenarios… because somewhere deep down, it thinks it’s helping you survive.
Learning happiness is almost like teaching your brain:
“Thank you for trying to protect me, but I’m safe now.”
Instead of saving your money a bank account. Save in a MMF.
Instead of a fixed deposit account, invest in a T-bill or T-bond
Instead of buying stocks blindly, invest in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)
Instead of investing in idle plots of land, buy cash generating assets.

READ CLASSIC NOVELS!
Modern novels center grievance/affliction above language. Classic novels centered the lucid function of language.
currently reading a book that says “note that the idea of life not going your way is an illusion; life is
always going your way, you’re just unaware of your path.” AND WOW 🤯🤯
Every man who reads too many books before he has lived goes mad in a specific way. first he is gentle because books are gentle. then he is arrogant because books make him feel superior to the unlettered. then he is desperate because he knows everything and can do nothing. then he is finally dangerous because he takes his first real beating from life and realizes all his knowledge did not protect him and now he must rebuild everything from the ground
