Happiness isn't found on social media
“We go there to see things we (mostly) didn’t choose ourselves, served to us in small bite-sized bits: – an interesting fact! – a sad story :( – an update from a “friend” you haven’t talked to in 12 years – a funny video! – a scary thing you should look out for!!! –… Before you get the time to digest one, you move onto the next. Over and over again. Scroll, scroll, scroll.”
We have a blind spot
“For the longest time, I didn’t want to admit it to myself. I thought I was in control. I thought I was “moderating”, whatever that might mean. But in truth I was moderating myself to a serving of my drug of choice dozens of times every day. Simply because I wouldn’t feel good without it. Simply because I wanted it. A lot.”
I failed at starting an online business and I'm happy with that
I really really tried to start an online business, but it was just an endless struggle. I just couldn’t get myself to do the things and I couldn’t get it right. And so I finally stopped. It was a relief and a disappointment at the same time. And it actually took me close to a year to figure out what went “wrong”, and why it’s for the best.
How I became a carnivore
I don’t eat a “varied and balanced diet” anymore. I don’t do five a day. There is no rainbow on my plate. And no holy (whole) grains. Zero fibre, actually. On the other hand, I eat lots of saturated fat, cholesterol and salt.
I eat meat, eggs, fish, salt and water. And that’s pretty much it 99% of the time.
And believe it or not I have never felt better.
