-I wrote this when I was 23, (Im 32 now). Its good advice
1. Waking up stupid early
If you want anything in life to happen, you have to make something move, and that means getting that started as soon as possible...
If you want to maximize your quantitative experience, then start your day early. If you want waste time, then wake up whenever you like
But don’t be surprised when you get beaten by someone who put in more time than you did—because it will happen.
2. Working way later than you should.
Rarely do people fail because they devote too much time to something
Aside from actively working to create opportunity, there will also always be instances where someone has the good fortune to simply be the person that showed up first...
The idea of Nature being peaceful and equal and loving is a modern deception
The animal world is one of Indiscriminate violence, prey animals are eaten alive asshole first, killing for fun is common, aging predators dye in starvation or being killed by their own kind...
The very act of going to a river to drink can end in death,
Weak and lame offspring are left to die and/or killer, mothers will eat their own children for food if need be
The world of man is kinder and gentler by orders of magnitude
The civilized world is built on creating boundaries that protect man against the wild
roofs, walls, Fences and fire pits
Structure and infrastructure
is protection and passage Against and through the environment
The teacher of Hippocrates was Herodicus. He is called the Father of Sports Medicine
He lived during the 5th century BC, he was the first physician known to have prescribed exercises as medicine
He commonly recommend 20 mile walks to his patients to restore robustness
He was a former athletic trainer, and he believed that ill health resulted from imbalance between not enough exercise, and too much eating.
To restore health, he recommended regular, daily training, and a strict diet free of rich and sweet foods
This was 2500 years ago, for perspective, and he understood obesity better than most doctors today. Your modern primary care doctor is likely to be a fat fuck with 38% bodyfat and a neck wattle as he is to be healthy.
