I would not have watched the video without these timestamps. So, this is a vital feature. "Don't practice what you do not want to become" stood out to me, particularly the analogy about the mother whose decision to ride a horse reacquainted her with the desire for a cigarette. Makes you really see life in all its minutiae.

I have to admit you are one of my favourite podcasters. Your style of conversation and interviewing is great, and most of the guests are splendid. You are just an intelligent normal dude with a highly curious mind. Just like most of us who listen. I love that about you. Keep up the good work!

[@madmattius]

'Consistency Is Even Rarer Than Talent Or Enthusiasm". That is the number 1 on this list for me. It resonates very hard indeed.

[@joetchr]

This is probably one of the most condensed and valuable videos on this website.

52:00 action is the antidote to anxiety. Brilliant

[@ItsTheMunz]

With what you said around 5:20, there’s so much truth. My favourite saying now is “take imperfect action.” And I’ve heard a good one on set (where you’re always behind) that goes “perfection is the enemy of time.” I’d add that it’s the enemy of accomplishment as well.

This is the 1st of your podcast that I've listed to all the way through. I've now got to work my way through the back catalogue. Good to hear some good NorthEastern logic and common sense. I really wish stuff like this had been so easily accessible when I was at my lowest point in the early 90s, but it's never to late to learn a better way of being.

This is literally the most life-transforming hour of time across ALL creations of humanity as long as one pursues these pieces of wisdom and implements it. I've been into self-dev for over 15 years and I've never seen anything that could much your quality-to-length ratio.

[@danepaulstewart8464]

Wow, GREAT collection of topics! PERSONAL MENTAL HOUSEKEEPING. This is a really useful set of personal mental housekeeping points. I found myself pausing the video and taking notes for myself to pursue in the coming days ahead. I have often wondered WHY you do what you do with your podcast, Chris. I mean, I LIKE them quite a bit, but frequently I have wondered why you pick the conversations and guests that you do. What’s the payoff FOR YOU? Well now it seems all quite clear. You wanted some things answered for yourself. Thanks for sharing all this - it’s super USEFUL. 👍👍

[@grantfrith9589]

This video made me rethink my answer to people who ask me what I do. In the past I have found it difficult to answer that question simply because I service a very small portion of the maintenance industry. My finished product balances aesthetics, ergonomics, function and economics. My aim is for my customer to say on completion in a surprised and delighted manner "it looks as if it was meant to be". That response follows me more often than not. So when people ask me what I do I can say with confidence "I'm succeeding in demonstrating that the free enterprise system works and I'm building an example for others to follow". I know intuitively that there's billions of people just like me who find a very small corner of the market and exploit it effectively for everyones benifit and delight. Every time I see people undermine the system we have inherited, particularly from the elites who don't seem to know where the wealth ultimately comes from it disturbs me deeply. The fact that the socialist approach always ends the chance for people like me to create new opportunities it becomes crystal clear that civilization and the wealth we've come to appreciate is not as solid as we think it is.

What a value add - Came here from the pod with Ali ! Got a new subbie

[@janetjacks3406]

Really appreciated all the effort that must have gone into this episode and certainly much to take away and be reminded of. There was the small segment near the end about habits or rather the power of old addictive associations, bit depressing and I would say too narrow or confined to the brain chemistry view of dopamine etc and would have benefitted from wider thinking and a more hopeful perspective. Plant medicines certainly help wipe clean these attachments, which reside in the emotional meaning of whatever draws us back, hope you try them one day as think this would deepen view. Also the segment on Douglas Murray, the problem of post modernism. Would say a worthwhile endeavor to apply ones considerable intellect too, but good point also made that trying to laugh it out of existence wont work and I began to realise this after watching copious amounts of Carl Benjamin. This needs a different approach approach and much deeper understanding as it's significance is so profound. James Tunney has a good philosophical approach and would contribute much I suspect to this subject. He is on Jeffrey Mishlove's channel alot and speaking about Scientism and transhumanism, highly pertinent subject matters in these times of a coming totalitarianism.

[@janetjacks3406]

Well done Chris for producing such great content. James Tunney would be a fantastic guest to have on, he's made a great impact on Jeffrey Mishlove's channel and what he says about scientism and transhumanism is so pertinent to what is happening right now with the "Covid" situation were we seem to be heading for a full blown totalitarian technocracy.

[@jamalyousaf3066]

Thanks man. Needed this

[@thedreadduck]

Thank you Chris. I appreciated your appearance on Timcast, but this episode was really powerful. I've been on earth half a hundred years already, and nothing has ever struck me as poignantly as the concept that "I am not the voice in my head". I honestly have just always assumed that I was an asshole to myself. It's going to take some serious reflection to make that thought stick after all the years of wrong-thinking. But that one lesson is a key that feels like it unlocks so much potential...and so much hope.

[@craigwillms61]

"What is the goal you want to do?" Who the heck knows?? Staying alive is one thing I can think of. Just doing housework and cooking meals has importance. There are a lot of seemingly meaningless tasks that we engage in and takes our time that are completely necessary. Does everyone have to have a higher purpose? Doing something 24/7 with laser focus makes us dull and boring. Oh, didn't I mention I'm retiring next month? Oh sorry, never mind...............

[@chrisf1600]

Great point, Craig. I retired earlier this year, and I get a lot of pleasure from doing some of those simple chores that you mention. It's good to have some longer term projects, but endlessly chasing goals sounds like a horribly dull existence.

[@BboyKeny]

It's amazing that you are able to make a living off learning! Keep up the good work 😄 What trajectory do you think you're on in regards with your learning journey? (Eg. keeping inner peace, big heroic feats, teaching others)

[@chrisf1600]

Great video Chris, I don't agree with every one of these ideas but they certainly gave me something to think about. I really like the idea about each generation rediscovering the same underlying wisdom, the older I get the more I understand that we're all just playing out cycles that have existed for thousands of years. Technology changes but human nature does not. Btw I had no idea you'd interviewed Ryan Long on the show, his "Boycast" is one of my favourite podcasts. Congrats on the 400th anniversary !

Congrats on 400, a big achievement. I enjoyed this, definitely taken the quote “polishing things to perfection is a low leverage activity” to heart I don’t understand your framing analogy. The difference between the two scenarios is context, not framing. The circumstances are materially different regardless of perspective. The physiology of hyperventilation is not the same as the physiology of increased oxygen consumption due to exercise etc etc

[@sugarplumcarol]

First of all, I learn a lot from your videos. Secondly, isn't impostor syndrome an uncertainty within yourself AFTER you've accomplished something or achieved an objective? Not before. You get to a certain stage that should make yourself proud, but you're like 'wow, that's not me, I was just lucky' and many other ways to diminish what you've done. Which, as I'm writing now, it's a very humbling, down-to-earth way of being and might get you out of your comfort zone, trying to achieve the next thing. I don't disagree that impostor syndrome can be a good thing, just with your definition of it, I guess.

Whilst listening I was perusing an idea to purchase a portable plug in deisel air heater for room heating. Lo and behold I find one in the design of a yellow briefcase with a small deisel tank strapped on the outside. It has one of the chinese deisel air heaters inside. Having recently purchased one for my campervan it is obvious that the portable one is a reg deisel heater fitted into a colourful briefcase for a very colourful price of $1700 when it must cost $100 for the heater kit and maybe £

I think Peter Attia would probably disagree with "Polishing things to perfection, is a low-leverage activity" Regarding "You don't have to beat the market, you just have to track it.", on the Planet Money podcast, they talk about the 10-year milllion dollar bet by Warren Buffett. Aside from Ryan Long (or the early days of WallStreetBets), who else is on the pulse of culture? For example, Mark Cuban suggests Decentralized-Finance (DeFi) will be huge.. Scott Adams say its "5G".. Kevin Rose say "DAO" and "NFTs". Michael Shellenberger / Bjorn Lomborg suggest nuclear fusion is going to make cheap clean energy a reality. Is there any futurist that has a vision of how all of this could play out? BTW, Regarding the Story Behind Binaural Beats with Cory Allen (#254), any thoughts if this can help with sleep?

[@barbaraseymour3437]

I’m not so sure about the ‘never lie’. And I don’t mean the ‘did you steal the money?’ My problem is my husband died 2 1/2 years ago and it’s still terrible. When people stop and talk it’s easier to pretend ‘fine’ or ‘ok’ (especially if they actually ask) than have to go into how bad things still are. Easier for them particularly. I think it’s much too subtle a concept this always ‘tell the truth’.

[@OkTxSheepLady]

My answer for the last 18 years has been a truthful, “I’m here.” The hole in my life hasn’t shrunk any in that time.

[@aaronash58]

It would be "less" terrible if you hadn't been lying to people all the time about it. My mother committed suicide many years ago now, at first I avoided it, then for a while I would drop the "truth bomb" into the conversation. She committed suicide! I'd say in a emotionally charged way. Nowadays I just say that she died unless there is a particular reason to go for more detail. Both statements are true but how I used them to distress or not other people and myself varied. It's partly "framing" like he talks about later. It does get better over time but a couple of years is still early in the grieving process. Best wishes to you

[@owenhunt]

[@realmadrid314]

The "feed others from the saucer, not the cup" idea is critical. We should be a font of resources instead of a merchant of resources. Money is a form of trust between strangers. There is no money within a functional family. Obviously work is good, but money pulls work out of people, people don't pull money out of work. Money was the invention to facilitate work and sharing, which can be good. But we are most human when the best in ourselves serves the best in others. That isn't accomplished with economic incentive; rather, the accomplishment of harmonious human interaction becomes the economy. Money disappears. Seeking the disappearance of money is ignorant to the evil within us all. Money is neutral; our relationship with it can bring immense good as well as intense pain. So, ideally, we work to be a font of joyous monetary success and serve our fellow man with the excess joy. Money is the reflection of speech; money is the symbolic language of embodied action. It pulls buildings out of the physical world. Its reflection, speech, is the symbolic language of conscious thought. It pulls ideas out of the spiritual world and into someone's head. Through proper speech and action, we transcend our servitude to the material world and embrace our place in the Kingdom of Heaven.

[@rachelkingsley668]

Re the Barbarians at the gates.. Pick your battles..... don't sweat the small stuff, its a distraction

[@fleedum]

Well, it often is potential misleading information we urge to fight against ... Some might say it's part of the businessplan of media platforms or other commerce. I think you've also mentioned something along these lines (maybe as part of a conspiracy): "The breakdown between men and women is completely intentional because it creates more spending. A stable relationship allows people to pool resources, make rational choices, save money, raise their standard of living, become better educated, support better and more stable communities which in turn does the same on a community level. The breakdown is promoted at every level of society. Not only do unhappy people consume more, they are also less healthy thus likely to need expensive health care and live a shorter life. They are the perfect revenue generating machines." Being a software engineer for the last 10 years, I've been mainly occupied with logical material. A world where most things boil down to ones and zeros. Multiple solutions are likely to be similar. Iterations on eachother. Not at all the opposite of eachother. Among many things, I've had to learn to think critically. 2 years ago I adopted dogs (responsibility, routine, physical activity, managing expectations, ...) and have been consuming content about raising and training them ever since. Found some great role models, started a side hustle and some digital projects in theme. Along with consuming that content came a load of American, leftist crap. Which can often be boiled down to the differences between men and women, both physically and psychologically. Bringing forth the opposing differences in preferred methods and tools based on personal experiences and personal truths. Subjectivity being pushed or framed as the only truth, suggestive research to back-up blind statements. Clear differences between the theoretics and the practical field. Also just saw a video from Lex Fridman about how research is often written for other researchers since you can't keep starting from 0. Not for the common people, yet it is picked up and used for personal gain. It's often new dog "experts" / "coaches" after consuming a gentrified, theoretical course which from then on is their only truth. These people start posting / promoting the most absurd things on social media, often the opposite of the advice of proven experts. Also as flaming comments on video's of experts, Karens. Viewing dogs as infants wether they're human sized or rabbit sized, 4 months walking the earth or 4 years. It's all generalised and "abuse" when it's not following their "love, understanding, free choice" ideology. Nonetheless, this gentrification has had a positive impact since we're no longer hanging dogs into submission. But as of recent years it's become complete crazyness and it's occupying experts that actually deliver results. It's very similar to the Right vs. Left culture wars that are going on. The same reputation / life destructing tactics are implemented. Similar collectivism, tunnel vision beyond reason, beyond logic. Priorities backwards e.g. caring more about the non-existing chance of injury on a human sized dog's neck than having proper control and not causing risk to yourself or surroundings (traffic accidents with children, cyclists, ...). I don't believe entirely that the discomfort of the dog is the main concern. Rather their own comfort and justifying their means. Their own comfort as in, not putting in the work to have proper leash manners. Rather put a strong, pulling dog in a harness and very long line for own ease and 0 control. Justifying their choice of picking a large, working breed dog as house pet. It's social justice, equality among dogs, ... all too similar. Pet care is female dominated, I'd imagine dog training isn't but since there are academics involved, bubbles are too... By sharing articles claiming breed features are not significant, claiming "it's all about how you raise them, only 7% of the breed makes up the behavior", sure, tell that to the two Border Collies with a ball. "Equality for all beings", clearly disregarding physical features. Hyping up breeds on social media, breeds the shelters are already filled with such as American staffords, ... An example of such post was one where her sweet pitbull got discriminated. If you really love a breed, don't promote it! Correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think it's unreasonable to think commerce, globalization and social media + algorithms has a lot to do with this partism. From the media businessmodel to the small, new dog "expert" needing to make a name before obtaining the experience. Potentially after being fed a course that in its way had to be different to sell to justifying the sale of tools by demolishing another. Commercial enterprises are not allowed to directly attack another brand at least. And shouldn't visibly reach too far out of their own company to keep a good rep. So it's not unreasonable to think articles, social media etc. is used to do so. A lot of commerce is driven by emotion. Course "Raising babie... euh spoiled brat... euh dogs for women by women and simp". Chapter 1, "How to ignore and turn your back when dog does not put toilet seat back down". Other than that it's mainly differences in approaches between male and female + simps, personal experiences, physicallity, psychology, ... Men and women often grow up being entirely differently surrounded. That obviously impacts interests, methods etc. Think critically, responsibly and use what suits you. I once overheard a group of high school girls talking about how they wash their hair 5 times a day, says enough. I had to look up red pill while I probably am already in that zone. I stand by all my unpopular opinions. I have certainly been less considerate doing so, potentially crushing someone's new found enthousiasm about something. I also have to work on not pushing my personal truths, being more considerate, less reactive. And, I need to work out a way to limit my exposure to social media, I sometimes wish I could just remove it all and keep just the direct messaging ones. But I have to promote my side hustle every now and then. What an ride it's been, from coding to dog training to psychology, ... Thank you, JP, Timcast, Lex, Joel Beckman, ... and many other critical thinkers for creating clarity and addressing these issues! Your recent podcast with JP was amazing! Your input , sound, conversation, all on point!
