I just finished my first Dostoevsky novel.

It’s unlike anything else I’ve ever read.

Here are 10 quotes that hit me hard: Image
1) "I swear to you, gentlemen, that to be overly conscious is a sickness, a real, full-blown sickness." Image
2) "He is ready intentionally to distort the truth, to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear, only so as to justify his logic." Image

I read 55 books in 2024.

Here were my top 10 favorite ones:

(plus a key lesson from each book) Image
1) "Good Energy" by @CaseyMeansMD & @calleymeans

Written by a Stanford doctor and an ex-food lobbyist who expose the food, medical, and pharma industry.

It’s a must-read to understand our medical system, food policy, and how chronic disease forms.

Key Lesson:

Never eat food with "Red," "Blue," or "Yellow" in the ingredient list. Image

I listened to 300+ podcasts in 2024.

Here were my top 10 favorite ones: Image
1) @davidgoggins with @hubermanlab

Goggins knows more about mental toughness and grit than anyone else.

He's an ex-Navy SEAL turned ultra-endurance athlete who's run 200+ mile races and biked 400+ mile races (even after multiple knee surgeries).

2) @CaseyMeansMD & @calleymeans with @TuckerCarlson

Everyone should listen to this pod.

A Stanford-trained surgeon and an ex-food & drug lobbyist blow the whistle and share the truth about big pharma, the food industry, birth control pills, and more.
