  • Don’t take big steps. Take small ones.

    In the running world, there’s this thing called “Couch-to-5k”. Its a progran that can literally take you from square one - the couch - to a non-stop 5k run. Its all about small gains and slow incremental progress.

    A few small conscious efforts to disconnect from your phone every day, even for 15 mins at a time, will slowly add up to bigger and bigger gains over time. If you can break the impulse to check your phone by disrupting the immediate availability of your phone, you might be able to get the ball rolling pretty quickly.





  • Men whose entire identity is tied with what truck they drive. Its absolutely insane how pervasive this shit is.

    A friend of mine is has super restricted finances because he has a kid and a truck. He wants a house but can’t afford it because his truck costs him almost $1k/month. I’ve hinted that he should ditch the truck but he just can’t bring himself to do it. Everyone at work drives big trucks so he feels like he has to as well to fit in.

    It’s completely fucked.
