To any young kid reading this…
I’ve doubted myself in every league I’ve ever played in.
Ryman Prem.
Conference South.
League Two.
League One.
Championship…
And even right before my first Premier League start last night.
That’s not weakness.
That’s being human.
That’s being alive.
When I was growing up, I thought Premier League players were superhuman.
Like they never felt doubt.
Like they never felt nerves.
The truth is…. it’s often the opposite.
Social media won’t tell you that sometimes you step out there with no confidence. That’s normal. That’s ok!
You now have to then step out there with courage.
Confidence feels good.
Courage doesn’t.
But you do it anyway. Show courage enough times…. You build confidence.
Here’s the mindset that’s carried me for 31 years.
When it goes well:
I worked for it.
I earned it.
Well done.
Watch it back.
Get better.
When it doesn’t:
I know I prepared the best I could.
It didn’t go exactly to plan. That’s football.
But Well done.
Watch it back.
Get better.
That simple recipe gave me a special moment last night.
Leading the team out.
Playing alongside a group that fights for every ball.
Celebrates tackles.
Gives everything for the city of Sunderland.
And sharing it with supporters who never gave up, even after four tough seasons in League One.
So if you’re a young player feeling doubt…
Low confidence…
Or like you don’t believe in yourself…
You’re not alone.
Every player feels it.
Confidence isn’t something you’re given.
It’s something you build.
Bit by bit.
Day by day.
With courage.
With work.
With learning.
Anything worth building takes time.
But that’s what makes it so worthwhile!
Thank you @SunderlandAFC ❤️🤍

This is so incredibly dangerous and will be seen by millions of people.
I'm a cardiologist who opens the arteries of people with heart attacks.
1. Secondary vs primary prevention - Here, Malhotra is talking about someone taking a statin who has *already had a heart attack*.
First of all, if you survive a heart attack without any major damage, you're lucky. A lot of people aren't as lucky. I know this because I do this work for a living.
Primary prevention is for people who've never had any clinical event. If you've had a heart attack, you are NOT THE SAME as someone your same age, etc who has NOT had one. The game is changed and much riskier for you. You are at a HIGHER RISK of ANOTHER heart attack. You need to be MORE AGGRESSIVE to lower that risk. If your first one spared your life, the second one might not. That is secondary prevention.
2. "Benefit over 5 years" - This is such a classic, silly misinformation trick. OK sure - but that assumes you're only planning on living another 5 years and then are ok with just dying.
That's obviously absurd and I don't believe anyone agrees with that. As your cardiologist, I'm not trying to keep you alive and well for just 5 years. I'm talking 10, 20, 30 years, decades.
The real true benefit of statin therapy is over decades. As in, they help keep you alive longer. You can't just measure it at an arbitrary 5 year cut off.
3. Not magic bullet - Prevention is not just statins. It is changing your entire lifestyle, diet, exercise, etc, and meds. Statins are not magic either. People on statins have heart attacks too.
But life is about risks and probabilities. You do what you can to reduce risk as much as possible. You cannot reduce risk to 0, but you can bring it pretty damn close to 0.
It is so fascinating to me that there are so many highly intelligent and accomplished people who have an intimate understanding of risk and probabilities, and who make major decisions in their daily lives based on this understanding. But when it comes to statins and vaccines, they just abandon all logic.
Joe Rogan Podcast News@joeroganhq
Dr. Aseem Malhotra: "If you take a statin for 5 years after a heart attack... in that 5 year period, how much would you think or hope it would add to your life expectancy?" Joe Rogan: "25%? 30%?" Malhotra: "Just over 4 days."
