"Solitude is dangerous. It’s very addictive. It becomes a habit after you realise how peaceful and calm it is. It’s like you don’t want to deal with people anymore because they drain your energy.”
9 Things TO learn from
JIM CARREY - THE PHILOSOPHER
1>You can fail at what you don't want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love.
2> I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer.
3> If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty, or back to pain and regret.
4>You are ready and able to do beautiful things in this world, and as you walk through those doors today, you will only have two choices: love or fear. Choose love, and don’t ever let fear turn you against your playful heart.
5>I wake up some mornings and sit and have my coffee and look out at my garden, and i go, 'Remember how good this is. Because you can lose it.
Appreciate and show gratitude towards whatever you have.
6> It is better to risk starving to death than surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?
Fight for what you love.
7>Life doesn't happen to you. It happens for you. Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world.
8> The effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is.
9> I believe depression is legitimate. But I also believe that if you don’t exercise, eat nutritious food, get sunlight, get enough sleep, consume positive material, surround yourself with support, then you aren’t giving yourself a fighting chance.
You live your life on auto pilot because you don't know what to do with your life.

He is a Harvard Genetics Professor and this are his secrets to reverse ageing:
1. Exercise to the point of losing your breath
DISCLAIMER:
I don't agree with Prof Sinclair's lifestyle being optimal for health and testosterone. But it is good if your goal is to slow down ageing.
There is more towards life than longevity but this thread is about Sinclair's lifestyle and I will post about Sinclair's view, not mine!
Dr. Sinclair believes in exercising three times a week to the point of losing your breath.
"When you’re moving so fast that you can’t carry on a conversation, your body responds positively—building muscle, improving blood flow, and releasing chemicals that slow aging."
If it’s not working properly, your entire life suffers.
Here’s what you need to know about thyroid health, why it’s important, (& how to fix it):
1. What the thyroid does:
Your thyroid produces hormones (T3 and T4) that regulate:
• Hair
• Skin
• Heart rate
• Nail growth
• Energy production
These hormones are critical for keeping your metabolism running efficiently.
2. How it works:
Thyroid hormones are controlled by a feedback loop:
1) TRH (Thyrotropin-releasing hormone) signals the pituitary to release TSH. 2) TSH (Thyroid-stimulating hormone) tells the thyroid to produce T4 & T3. 3) T4 converts to T3 (most conversion happens in the liver & kidneys). 4) T3 enters cells and powers your metabolism and body functions.
