Self-compassion

When building habits, celebration in the moment is more effective than far-off rewards. Those rewards for consistency may not feel emotionally salient or directly related to the habit you're building, but when you celebrate a habit performed in the moment with a smile or pumping your fists or listening to a favorite song or visualizing your next vacation, any of those in the moment celebrations reinforce to your brain that doing the habit is a good thing, and that will Pavlov yourself into doing it more consistently.

When the lineup is goated.

"People are riddles. They want someone else to solve their riddle. They live life wanting someone to solve the riddle that they are, the most difficult riddle in the world."

Any advice? Just like in general.

God is kinda goated as a concept because you can lean on the homie to feel love or peace when those feelings aren't so accessible otherwise.

Immediate celebration is underrated for building habits. Rewards for consistency are far away and may not actually feel tied to the desired habit, but an in-the-moment celebration like a smile or a fist pump or listening to a favorite song would more effectively Pavlov oneself.

Curiosity

Being a body and saying words 🫀

Every day there's a gremlin that whispers in my ear, "Why bother? You keep trying and not getting what you want. That's so sad, what a miserable pattern. How about you just give up. Stop trying." And every day I get to respond, "No. I won't give up."

4 billion people are so beautiful.

I am increasingly confident that prioritizing grief will be a part of the path to wherever the world is headed.
