10 of the most powerful paradoxes of modern life:

When we accept resistance, resistance disappears.

When we accept our challenges, we’re able to start solving them.

When we face the fire, the fire can be extinguished.

Our resistance is an opportunity, or an ever-growing thorn in our side.
The Scarcity Paradox

What’s scarce is deemed valuable, what’s abundant is deemed worthless.

In reality, utility doesn’t always follow scarcity.

Abundant pleasures can be our most valuable pleasures—and vice versa.
