"The growth you asked for is hidden in the struggle you avoid. Remember that." Great piece from @SahilBloom on the hidden cost of comfort. sahilbloom.com/newsletter/the…

Fascinating piece from @sahilbloom on a statistical oddity that may save your life. Remember: Your life is analyzed on paper, but lived in reality. sahilbloom.com/newsletter/the…

Some people say they’d “kill for a shot” or they’d “die for the chance” when in reality they won’t even wake up sixty minutes earlier for it.

@dr_sumit_sharma Stopping alcohol is the single best thing I've done.

Alcohol is the most socially accepted drug consumed by 2.3 billion people worldwide. It's the legal poison sold on every street and responsible for 3 million deaths annually. Here’s why alcohol is toxic—and how to drink responsibly (if at all):

We're in a societal paradox of increased self-entitlement and decreased self-esteem.

Modern industrial civilization is creating deep structural issues. These problems manifest in declining birth rates and mental health. Our current way of life may be fundamentally unsustainable. Technological progress hasn't solved core human and societal challenges. We must address root causes to build a healthier society

We're living in an unusually turbulent era. Our society is heading towards major upheaval or conflict. Historical parallels suggest potential for significant societal changes ahead. Current trends echo past periods of great transformation. Prepare for an uncertain future by understanding historical patterns.

What do you need to unbecome in order to become?

@thebonniebyrne Much love my extremely accountable friend!

If you want to know where you lack accountability, look at the things you complain about. And if it’s someone..why are you still tolerating them? We are our own problem and our own solution.

@__apf__ Damn bureaucracy.

I put a wooden bench on the sidewalk strip outside my home. Dozens of people sit here throughout the day because I live at the top of a very steep hill. particularly older people who need to catch their breath. The city just sent me a notice ordering me to remove it

@thebonniebyrne And you're giving them power over your emotions

If you’re blaming others for your misery, it’s a red flag for your own lack of accountability.

Only when your thoughts/intentions/actions are aligned will you feel fully authentic.

@sabrinacoaching I'm sure you mean powerful enough to make an impression from a distance. 🤩

@shftngprspctvs I chuckled to myself earlier on the beach. There was a very loud dog barking at everything. I couldn't quite see it. I walked past, and it was this sausage dog - its bark didn't match its size. I figured I look like that when I'm trying to bark at annoying stuff. 😝🐩

Be more dog today. Wag your tail. Chase that squirrel. Bark at things you don't like.

@parkerworth Or you can have an Olympic offer and no audience to see it.

You can have an olympic sized abs. But without eating right you won't see the 6 pack. You can have a library's worth of knowledge. But without application you won't be wise. You can have olympic size audience. But without an offer you won't have money. Why are you forgetting the details when you're chasing the big picture?

@gregisenberg Supply and demand. Even applying for jobs on LinkedIn without a warm connect is a waste of time, I hear. I wonder if it will hold true when the job market recovers.

my hot take of the day is that the #opentowork linkedin badge decreases the chance of you getting hired

@awilkinson Also has single and multi player modes!

Business is like a video game where the rules and value of goods change constantly and everyone is secretly using mods.

@IterIntellectus Combo of 1. Follow your dream and 2. There are outliers in every average. Some folks will make it and have a dream life.

knowing this, why would anyone enroll in the red ones?

@IAmAaronWill They're only cheating themselves.

Be very careful who you put your trust into online. I'm very transparent. I will tell you everything. No point in lying. But other mfs are very sneaky. I've dealt with a ton of people who claim to be making good money but you'd be surprised to learn they aren't. Careful.

@ItsKieranDrew Good framework! Without the context and foundation of the first two, the third is a lot harder.

Stage 1: Know yourself · Walk · Reflect · Journal Stage 2: Know the world · Read · Listen · Observe Stage 3: Know your impact · Educate · Create · Serve
