If 1+1=5 then go have fun with it

There’s a meme floating around the internet where Keanu Reeves says that he won’t argue with people. To be precise (assuming he said it):

“I’m at that stage in my life where I stay out of arguments. Even if you say 1+1=5, you’re right. Have fun.”

It’s a great quote because in life it really is true. The biggest waste of time and energy you can engage in is arguing with people. Let people believe whatever they want. Unless it’s a family member who needs guidance and their belief will harm their health, let people be themselves and figure out stuff for themselves.

I spent far too many years wasting my time trying to convince people or educate them when I thought they were wrong. I’m sure I myself have been wrong about my position in certain instances and rarely did people try to pressure me into changing my position. Today’s podcast discusses letting people just believe whatever they want to so you can focus on yourself!
