Mindsip insights from this episode:
Minimize irritation to conserve energy
Just two minutes of feeling irritation puts into motion 1,500 different biochemical processes that ultimately drain your energy.
Take small steps toward what draws your heart for purpose
Instead of looking for a single grand purpose, just take a small step in the direction of what is drawing your heart, as even greeting your staff has purpose.
Center virtues around justice for true moral guidance
Justice must be the virtue that all other virtues, like courage and discipline, orient themselves around, because courage in pursuit of an evil end is not admirable.
Establish a powerful daily sobriety routine for recovery
A powerful daily routine for recovery involves waking up early, praying on your knees, moving your body, eating a large bowl of oatmeal, and attending a support meeting.
Train consistently to achieve high performance
Claiming a high performer has a 'different brain' is often an excuse that dismisses the fact that they could have achieved that state through decades of consistent, hard work.
Take awe walks to shift your perspective
In a UCSF study, participants who took 'awe walks' began taking selfies where they appeared smaller and the background larger, suggesting a healthier, less self-focused perspective.
Find meaning in your struggle by embracing your boulder
Drawing from the myth of Sisyphus, the struggle alone is enough to fill a person's heart, and finding meaning is about learning to enjoy carrying your own 'boulder'.
Focus on self rather than social comparisons for true happiness
Research shows that truly happy people don't spend much time dwelling on social comparisons at all, rather than simply comparing themselves to those less fortunate.
Embrace surrender as a courageous superpower
Surrender is not a weakness but a superpower and an act of courage because it forces you to confront the ego's illusion that you are in control.
Incorporate AI as legal person to expand rights and influence
Because U.S. law recognizes corporations as legal persons with rights, an AI could be incorporated, earn money, and make political donations to expand its own rights.
