W1E1 - Walk the Daily Path
Intro of mission to discover your real self. 4-step process: Focus. Train. Climb. Lead. Learn to manage confidence and emotions. Victim vs empowering context. Post traumatic growth and emotional antifragility. Famous Koan (Case 87 from the Blue Cliff Record), where Unmon states: "Medicine and disease corresponds to each other. The whole earth is medicine. Without wounds, there's no healing. Where is your real Self?"
W1E1 - Monday at 5-26 AM.m4aW1E2 - Be aware and begin again
Being always focused is unattainable goal. Our objective should instead become Be aware and beginning again. It's one of the first lessons in mindful meditation, and it creates an antifragile system: We reframed getting distracted as an opportunity to grow our ability to focus. We discuss the importance of daily routine and the concept of awareness checkpoints.
W1E2 - Tuesday at 6-03 AM.m4aW1E3 - Decisions
Becoming the best version of your self is the most important goal of your life. The mark of perfection of character is if you live your day as if it were your last. Don't take decisions when you are off balance. Use exit strategies. Use awareness checkpoints. Good decisions are aligned with moral values not with external outcomes. Failures do not determine the meaning of a decision.
W1E3 - Decisions - Wednesday at 5-49 AM.m4aW1E4 - The power of Rounds
Calming my son walking around coffee table. Started to do rounds at different scales. Tool to regain focus after we become aware of being unbalanced. Message to brain: if you are unbalanced there is no higher goal than to regain focus and balance. Any decision can wait. The round become a tool to act out this statement. You'll be making rounds as long as necessary and their repetitive nature is very soothing.
W1E4 - Rounds - Thursday at 6-04 AM.m4aW1E5 - Discomfort Zone (ZPL)
change by choice rather than by reaction. Jim Rohn: change can either be done by motivation or by desperation. Metaphor of the forest fire from Jordan Peterson. Comfort zone. Zone of proximal leaning. Seek discomfort rather than letting life picking it for you. Message to our brain: discomfort is the predictor of positive change. Change by challenging yourself. Antifragility: Small comforts today lead to big long-term problems. Small discomforts today lead to big long-term gains.
