Before The Sun https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Dec18_Post.mp3 I’ve always been a morning person. I like to get up early, and get things done. And get them done as quickly as possible.

The Dumbledore Reframe
Ancient Role Models https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Dec13_Post.mp3 One of the reasons they invented storytelling was because it provided good role models.

Did You See That? https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Dec12_Post.mp3 Here’s basic theory on how we may develop unhelpful beliefs. Beliefs are kind of like filters between the world and our brain. Some are built in, some are learned. Anyhow, here’s what happens. There is the first event.

They’ll Pursue You
Shooting Only https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Dec04_Loop.mp3 The idea of being “outcome independent” has been around for a long time. At least a couple thousand years. It’s one of the prime recommendations of stoicism. To focus on the shooting of the arrow, and not on the hitting of the target. This is exactly why they […]
Predict Everybody’s Personality
Similar Structure https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Dec03_Post.mp3 There’s an old video on YouTube called the “Axis of Awesome” or something like that. It is a demonstration that nearly all popular western music in the past couple decades have the SAME basic chord progression. If you study the structure of stories, you’ll find the same thing. On […]
Dominate Conversations
Rehearsal https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Nov24_Post.mp3 There’s an interesting reason why people believe in conspiracy theories.

Fumbling https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Sept22_Post.mp3 I don’t like to turn on the bathroom light at night. So when I wake up, and need to use the restroom, I kind of feel my way in. If I turn the light on, it might wake me up and I won’t be able to go back to sleep. […]
