    Good enough for now

This fine line is crucial if we want to be happy now instead of at some arbitrary time in the future.This episode discusses a few strategies for finding this happiness now, and covers the importance of this regular reflection.Designing Your New Work Life by Bill Burnett and Dave EvansAs always, thanks fo...

    The benefits of developing resilience

    New research has shown that there is a region in the brain called the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC) which is grown specifically by choosing to do things that we don't want to do. While there has been a long-held belief that choosing to do hard things is beneficial, science is starting to support this claim.This brain region is larger in older individuals with high cognitive function. It is smaller in obese people, but then grows as they diet and lose weight. It is abnormally large in at...

    Being your best self at every opportunity

    There are countless situations in life where we face a crossroads: we put in the little extra effort to do our best, or we accept the effort we've put in already and move on.In this episode, we discuss the importance of always going the extra mile. I also argue why it's much more like a foot than a mile. If you've done your best work to that point, the extra effort on its own isn't the hard part. The challenge is the discipline and consistency required to do this day in and day out.As always,...

    The importance of first impressions

    Reputations take years to build and moments to tarnish. A bad first impression can lead to a negative reputation following you around, even if your interactions with everyone else is positive.Navigating life is challenging enough without having to fight uphill because someone heard we were unpleasant. Taking a little extra effort to be prepared, and aiming to bring positive energy to unplanned interactions can go a long way in opening more doors and providing more opportunities.This week, we ...

    Setting an intention each day and beyond

    Being intentional about how we spend our time allows us to gain more control over our most previous resource. If we fail to do this, we can find ourselves spinning our wheels in life and moving in a direction that we never envisioned for ourself.This week, we talk about the importance of being more intentional and cover some basic principles for incorporating this practice. From starting small with daily intentions, to zooming out and looking at how we spend our months and years, these strate...

    Having a singular focus

    If you want to truly be the best at something, if you want to reach the top percentile in any field, you must be willing to make great sacrifices and ignore all other distractions. Thinking you can achieve greatness without the work ethic required is ignorant, and a source of stress and delusion for many.In this episode, we explore the competitiveness and drive of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Conor McGregor. We discuss the level of granular detail required to be great, and how it's okay t...

    Building a tribe of mentors

    The concept of a "tribe of mentors" has been discussed by several people, including Tim Ferris who wrote a book of the same name. Traditional mentorship works well for those fortunate enough to establish those relationships.A modern approach that is more accessible for many is building a personal "board of advisors," close friends and acquaintances from your network who have knowledge of specific subjects and will give you honest feedback. Building this collective group can allow you to lever...
