    The Philosophy of: Tim Minchin (& Example) – A life of learning, teaching and helping is a complete one (and the life of a playful kid)

    February 3, 2018 - By Dave

    Take a leaf out of Peter Pan’s manual… – From Example – 10 Million People Professional sportspeople have it nice. They get to live the life of a kid into their 20s, 30s and even 40s (Tom Brady, Jaromir Jagr etc.). Playing games well into their adulthood. Then they coach sometimes and tell others how to play games. Musicians have…

    Time is unity – The Philosophy of Lucy [pt.3]

    February 2, 2018 - By Dave

    Here’s The philosophy of Lucy part 1 and part 2 –—– We are all connected in some way. Every single living organism. And every single thing before the first living organism. You are connected to all of those. In some way. On a minute scale maybe. But still in a way. By the data that made you, and the data that makes you.…

    ‘The Weather Outside is weather’ – On the Weather [The philosophy of: Kunu from Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Example, Snufkin, Illy and I guess mine]

    February 1, 2018 - By Dave

    The weather outside is weather. This could be your last day on earth. So you can either lament something that WAY out of your control (the weather) or do whatever you want to do anyway (in rain it can actually become an even more tangible and memorable experience). This is Kunu from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. And he’s right. His attitude…

    The philosophy of: Optimistic nihilism (and Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell)

    January 31, 2018 - By Dave

    So nothing matters, and time only goes in one way, and we only live for one blink, and you are just a collection of atoms (or more accurately particles), everything is just the size of an atom, or maybe this is all just a computer simulation, or just a dream, and maybe AI will soon murder us all, and soon…

    If you want to do something, and get better at something. Don’t aim to do it every day. Aim to do TODAY. Then, repeat tomorrow.

    January 30, 2018 - By Dave

    There’s a problem with setting lofty goals. Especially ones that are long term. Aiming to do something every day can easily lead you to give up, after being overwhelmed not only by the goal but also the thought ‘When does every day end?’ So instead, try this: Today, I’m going to… Then, tomorrow (assuming you’re fortunate to still be alive), do the same.…

    The things we most avoid doing are the things that we should. Now. (& The Stoicism of: Tim Ferriss & Former champion weightlifter Jerzy Gregorek)

    January 29, 2018 - By Dave

    That thing you’re avoiding doing, that conversation you’re avoiding having, that decision you’re afraid to make… do it. Now. Before you do it, you are chained to fear of it, and fear and paralysis from inaction and the status quo. Be honest with yourself and with the people in your life (even if it leads to a more difficult situation…

    The Philosophy of: Waking Life – What is Consciousness (and the Mind)? + The Philosophy of: Bart asking what it is. And Homer on what he thinks it is.

    January 27, 2018 - By Dave

    When you’re dreaming what’s the difference between it and being awake?¹ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edHyt3cb76o Is it just a case of having less sensory input compared to when you’re awake? Your brain can’t distinguish between things that happen in your dreams and things when you’re awake. Biut look at your body when you’re asleep. It lies there like a bag of bones. So the only…

  • On Decisions - On Regret

    Do you have to make a major decision? A decision between two things? Two things you’re worried you’ll regret if you choose ‘wrong’? And do you have complete control of that decision? This could be how to decide, based on what is actually best for YOU.

    January 26, 2018 - By Dave

    Question 1: Do you have to choose between two things?  Question 2: Is it a major decision (in your perspective)? #3: Are you worried that if you choose one, you’ll regret not choosing the other (and vice versa)? #4: Do you have control over the decision?   Okay, so try this: Think about this…  Imagine you choose one out of…

    January 25, 2018 - By Dave

    ‘We Never Really Die’ *(go to 1:35) When the first single cell organism, the prokaryote, began to exist, it learned about its environment. It survived, and that information on how to survive and withstand possible dangers was passed on to its next generation. Then if the next organism because even more evolved and better adapted to its environment, it was…
