1/ The goal of psychotherapy is to insert spaces for reflection where they have not previously existed—and thereby create opportunities to know ourselves more fully, connect with others more deeply, and live life more congruently

The potato paradox is a mathematical calculation that has a counter-intuitive result. "You have 100kg of potatoes, which are 99% water by weight. You let them dehydrate until they're 98% water. How much do they weigh now?" The surprising answer is 50kg

Let me ask you two questions: What are you good at, and which of those things that you’re good at would allow you to do the most good in the world? Whatever the answer is to those questions—that’s the good you must do.

This is insane. We can now detect feelings in real-time through facial expressions using AI. (Open-sourced code in the next tweet)

If for no other reason, we need to choose our most heroic lives, because a world desperately needs to see what it looks like to be fully alive. What the world needs most from you is for you to be fully alive.

One of my difficult but important realizations in adulthood was that there are rarely “right” or “wrong” choices, just different paths to take. With every choice we make, we have to mourn the loss of all we didn't choose. In this way, growth & grief are inextricably intertwined.

In any given relationship, the person who cares less has power. The answer to this isn’t to care less, it’s to trust that when it comes to relationships, vulnerability will get you to beautiful places that power never could.

When we “lose it” over seemingly small things, it’s not about the present event. It’s our body going into fight or flight because it remembers the past.

Confidence comes from the ability to self regulate. Self regulation is the ability to process life around you and respond to it rather than reacting to your emotions. Reacting to your own emotions is exhausting and feels like a never ending cycle of stress.

The fundamental insight of psychoanalysis is we do not fully know our own hearts & minds. Thoughts & actions hold more meanings than meet the eye This is why we take time to explore thoughts & feelings, vs. immediately rushing in to agree, validate or affirm the first thing said
