Having good Bushcraft gear does improve aspects of your wilderness adventures. But acquiring too much can lead to decision fatigue and fomo issues. Choose wisely.

The Matthew Principle of Self-Improvement. There are two types of people; those who don’t know how to improve their lives, and those who don’t know when to stop.

@dailystoic I heard this one guy say that the only way is through

People hurt us. Money can be lost. Jobs disappear. Cars crash into each other. Stoicism can’t change what happened. No philosophy is a time machine. But what we can do, what the Stoic practice is meant to help us do, is to prevail over what happened, and decide what comes next.

@SMKWcom How cool is that color combo, and the box to match 💸

Kizer's Lieb, designed by Azo, was made to be the perfect EDC! 2.39" Nitro-V blade, black titanium coated finish & textured green resin handles. The God of Mischief will launch at booth #29 at Blade Show ATL at 11am and online at 2pm online June 7th. smkwsocial.com/4bQPxz5

@ChrisWillx It's a good list, and a good newsletter, and a good podcast

I’ve been thinking about how quickly life can seem to pass. As we get older, our days move quickly because in retrospect, we can’t remember them. And we don’t remember our days because we haven’t done anything memorable with them. Our time is forgettable and therefore we forget it. This is why I’m so triggered by people who say “That’s just the way I am and always will be”. GET IN THE SEA. That’s someone who has internalised the monotony of their own thought patterns SO deeply that they literally identify with them. SEA. Monotony is the enemy of a well remembered life. In order to slow down how fast your life seems like it’s going, you MUST give your brain a reason to pay attention. Leading a full life means having lots of varied experiences, that will later be memorable. This means you need to start saying yes to more new things and no to more of the same things. Even if you’ve never wanted to try salsa dancing or yoga or an open mic comedy night, saying yes will guarantee that you create some novel and intense memories. Sure it might be easier to stay on the couch instead of going out. But you know that you won’t recall a single thing if you spend yet another night watching Netflix. Whereas you’ll have tons of new memories if you go and do something new. Which in retrospect, makes time pass more slowly. Life doesn’t move faster as you get older, we’re all just paying less attention. Mindfulness is one solution. Regular experiences that drag your mind into enjoying the present is another.

@BladeHQ Slick futuristic designs, gotta love a good edc

bit.ly/3yzOBkv Matsey is a designer who started by making items made from leather like sheaths, but then he came into the EDC world and has been here ever since. This brand has tons of products available like the Striga, HexBar, and the Basilisk.

Exploring Vancouver Island sometimes feels like a scene from Jurassic Park. The fern behind me is 7FT tall!

@TopsKnives I would love to do a review😏

The Bestia after getting heat treated.

@codylundinalss What a cool find. Finding rare wilderness animals, or even just signs of them is always a thrill

This guy showed up while I was reconning for a desert #survival course. #Gilamonsters (Heloderma suspectum) are protected by Arizona state law. Consider yourself lucky if you see one. In my 30 plus years of training in the desert, I’ve only spotted two of them. Stay safe! Cody

@TrollFootball Rough, but true
