“Most people (98% according to this one survey from 1991) will tell you the paranormal is horseshit. If no one believes in it, why the hell is this profession booming (at least 2.2 billion) despite entering the age of information?”

The most ridiculous question of all-time

“Want to hear the most ridiculous question of all-time Before I tell you, it’s my duty to warn you that you’ve probably heard it so many times that it seems perfectly normal. But it’s not.”

Mental puke from Twitter indigestion

I realized the most healthy attitude to Twitter is to focus on ideas and inspiration. It is putting in place this adage that everyone is parroting: 100 active connections are better than 1,000 silent ones.

Waking Up with Sunshine Hypocrisy

Cutting Corners

I realized that one of the benefits of tracking all of my small tasks in a week is that I’ve made it easier to think about which tasks are worth the time and energy investment given their return.

For example, I can save a lot of time with my haircuts by not attempting fades. And save a lot of energy with my chores by dialling some back from weekly to every other week.

Organizing the Day

I restructured my daily to dos in terms of:

• priorities (top 3 most impactful tasks),
• to dos (all other tasks I want to accomplish),
• can dos (all tasks I can do if I have any extra time).

Bombastic Branching

I started this new reflection practice, where I visualize the most audacious and impressive potential branches in my future.

I noticed that all of my reflection practices look at my most immediate past, present, and future. But I haven’t been giving myself any space to daydream about the big picture — what the most ideal future branches might look like.

So far, it’s been a really effective source of motivation.

I want to do an experiment one week where I must chew my foods for a certain number of times before swallowing
