“Most people are taught how to drive a car.

But most people are not taught how to drive their nervous system.”

This is the problem with stress - we all experience it. But we don’t know how to control it.

You feel like you can’t escape it.

94% of workers report feeling stress at work.

And as many as 66% of students have suicidal thoughts when under stress.

It’s a deadly epidemic that we don’t talk about enough.

A gentle reminder that, unlike wealth, health cannot be compounded passively - you have to put in personal effort into it every single day

If you’ve lived in the same house for 500 years you don’t need to wear blingy clothes. Footballers’ wives do that because they are more socially anxious and also the geographic mobility thing.

In your home village everybody knows who the hell you are and where the hell you live, so it’s pretty senseless getting into all those sort of bling competitions.

In the big cities where nobody knows who you are, there is a value to status indicators that are portable.

There’s interesting research on this showing that actually the need for luxury goods is very much one that comes with social and geographic mobility. It’s not irrational because this is a Darwinian thing.

The urge not to be patronised or belittled is a pretty strong innate human urge. Women’s fashion is a slightly nasty area. I’d have more ethical concerns in some ways about working in some areas of women’s fashion than on working on tobacco or booze.

“In theory, consistency is about being disciplined, determined, and unwavering.

In practice, consistency is about being adaptable. Don’t have much time? Scale it down. Don’t have much energy? Do the easy version. Find different ways to show up depending on the circumstances. Let your habits change shape to meet the demands of the day.

Adaptability is the way of consistency.”

These definitions and defining these words and boiling them down to the most basic version is simply amazing...helps a lot.

2)
Sadness is perceived lack of options/options - which is ignorance problem - so Knowledge is the answer.. learning

4)Strategy is just prioritzing

5)Effort are the things you must begin doing that you do not want to do.

6)Sacrifice is the opp. Things that you stop doing that you want to do.

7) Learning is same condition new behaviour.
