    Social Media (Addiction?)

    Gali broke off her relationship with social media. Surprise, surprise, she felt better! We all know the negative effects of social media, but hopefully the way we discuss it can be interesting, entertaining, and most importantly helpful. Questions/comments?

    Mental Freedom - Thinking Outside the Lines

    In this episode, we dive into the mental cages we don’t even realize we’re living in — the habits, assumptions, and internal scripts that keep us stuck. Beyond the conventional sense of freedom, sometimes we're the ones who hold ourselves back, particularly with our mental processes and state of mind. What does it mean to truly think freely? Let's find out ;) Questions/comments? DM us on Instagram!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/lifelessonthrift/⁠⁠⁠

    Following Up on the Blame Game

    In a previous episode - The Blame Game - Gali and Avi came to some conclusions about Avi's approach to university.

    Learning Curve

    Unless you're Phoebe from "Friends" who remembers her past lives, you're experiencing life for the first time just like us. We've got elements of it under control, but sometimes our lives look like a blooper reel. Join us for an episode where we share some stories where we feel like we should have known better and handled the situation differently. You may relate or take something from it; worst case scenario, you laugh with/at us. Questions/comments? DM us on Instagram!⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/lifelessonthrift/⁠⁠⁠

    Instincts, Nature, or Just Bad Habits

    Now or Never: Waiting for the Perfect Moment

    Some of us are perfectionists. That means that when we do something, it's usually pretty darn great. The issue is that we take forever to do that thing because we can always make improvements... It's never good enough. Avi and Gali talk about finding that balance between optimizing (looking for the very best) and satisficing (settling once a certain minimum standard is met).Questions/comments?

    Study Strategies

    A classroom is usually pretty heterogeneous, so when a teacher recommends study strategies, he/she has in mind what will probably work for the most amount of students. Gali and Avi are usually the odd ones out. We have certain attributes and tendencies that make the "typical" study strategies ineffective. Maybe you can relate, and maybe us sharing how we study can be of help. Questions/comments? DM us on Instagram!⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/lifelessonthrift/⁠⁠⁠
