#brave is slowly becoming an indispensable part of my online experience on both mobile and PC

Your future self is not your beast to burden.
Your future self may not be better equipped to deal with the situation any better than you can today.

Do something mind-numbing to get bored and in turn to kindle creativity - Chris Bailey (Hyper Focus)

While taking breaks between tasks, let your mind wander. You may come up with plans, ideas, etc.
Stop distractions and use the time wisely. As you move away from distractions, your mind turns inward.
- Chris Bailey in his "Hyper Focus" book

In a country like ours, there should be no such thing as "not enough people" - I'm sure @goindigo.bsky.social can find pilots

The bravest person is one who stands in front of a crowd and talks for hours without really conveying anything of value.

Raising children to be empowered adults has some downsides, notes Mihaly Csikszentmihaly in his "Finding Flow". When they do not get a chance to experience help, they become non-helping adults. I am giving a rough, and perhaps a wrong, view of what he said, but my takeaway is be dependent and help.

When rain isn't enough for your soul, full it with Raaja's tunes

I started to listen to an audiobook out of enthusiasm and soon realized that it wasn't for me.

I stopped at about 30 mins into it.

In the past, i wouldn't have done this. It would have taken me a couple of hours.

I am growing and getting better everyday.

Distractions often disguise themselves as useful knowledge.
You think you're learning when your scrolling through making videos but stop for a second and think.
Do you really need to watch that glass chandelier making video? Have you ever been near a kiln?

Your journey to success starts with closing your reels/shorts app.

Too many tasks
Getting started with nothing
Doom scrolling
Taking a walk now.
Will tackle the world after lunch.

Victory is in sight, as long as you keep looking in the right direction. It is especially clear if you're constantly working towards it.

If I'm really serious about writing, I should be writing every day.

Buy an expensive note and an expensive pen to write down your thoughts, said someone on the internet. Actually it was Cal Newport (I think).

I think it kind of works. He puts his money where his mouth is. Is this right? In any case, he says that if you're serious about writing ever day, show it.

Governments and administrations focusing on quantifiable results are betting on the short term.

Resisting the urge to turn on the music while starting to walk

Resisting to mindlessly open an app to look at meaningless content

Creating more than consuming.

These are the goal.
