happiness

It is probably the case that, somewhere in the past, you did something that made you more happy/productive/fulfilled, but you don’t do it anymore, for no good reason. Think about that, and do it again, preferably instead of one of your less desirable behaviors.

if you can’t find joy in a cup of coffee, you won’t find it in a yacht. gratitude treats all things the same.

It’s crazy to me that every optimist talks about “going to the stars” as the A+ perfect future scenario The universe supports qualia, experience, the only natural resource that inherently matters. We can shape that resource how we wish. What matters is what it’s like to be alive
