β€œEvery man has two lives, and the second starts when he realizes he has just one” β€” Confucius.

HACKS:

- Have less Desires
β€’ * Key to be more happy and to actually fulfill your one desire.
β€’ * Focus on your most burning desire. Let go of the rest.

- Positivism
* Train yourself to see the bright side of anything that happens, until that behavior becomes second nature.
β€’ * If it's too painful, at least see it as a teacher.

(to anything, you either take its bright side or its lesson)

- Biological Hacks
* Get more sunlight
(introduce tweet by Andrew Huberman)
* Smile
* Hug
* Spend time in Nature

- Watch your mind
β€’ Identify potentially unhelpful thoughts.
β€’ * Understand why these thoughts exist.


--------------- πŸ€“ My Reflections πŸ€“ ---------------

On watching your mind and understanding the source of your sufferings...

You have to get to know yourself. It is complex and scary, coz you don't know what you will find out about yourself. But is necessary to be free and healing your childhood traumas*, which is the main root of almost all mental and many physical illnesses, and automatic irrational behaviors.
(Interpretation from Dr. Gabor MatΓ© in the Tim Ferris's Podcast)

*Trauma is not what happens to you, but what happens inside you as a consequence of what happens to you. - Gabor MatΓ©

On Positivism...
β€’ I believe that besides trying to see the bright side of (almost) everything that happens, it is also critical to surround oneself by other optimist people.

"You become that which you are most consistently exposed to" - Kapil Gupta

And be aware that while the pessimist might sound smarter, it is the optimist who actually changes and improve things.

β€œA pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”
- Sir Winston Churchill.

"The pessimist may sound intelligent, but is the optimist who makes money."
- Peter Lynch.
