@tferriss& #39;s recent episode w/ @naval was one of my all-time favorites! Highly-highly suggest giving it a listen. You can find it here: https://tim.blog/2020/10/14/naval/">https://tim.blog/2020/10/1...
I also took some notes, specifically on the happiness & reducing anxiety portions of the show, although the whole ep. was so valuable.

1/ “There’s nothing out there that will make you happy forever. You have to take responsibility for guiding yourself in such a way that your mental state ends up how you want it.” — Naval
2/ Your unexamined life is causing most of your problems.
Naval’s self-examine: Reading philosophy, self-reflection while walking around with a filter on his own thoughts, and traditional mediation for 1-hour.

3/ “When the best hour of my day is spent by myself, then the world has very little to offer me. I can still participate in it. But it doesn’t have that grip on me like it used to.” — Naval
4/ “Find the people that it doesn’t take work to be around. The best relationships don’t feel like work. You make the other person happy being yourself. They make you happy by being themselves. Everyone’s honest, nobody is putting on an act.” — Naval
5/ Having a beginner’s mind is the hardest thing. You have to be willing to hit reset and start from zero. Most people want to start from where they are. “What you already know and what you’re already doing is actually an impediment to your full potential.” — Naval
6/ “We have pain avoidance in life. We don’t want to face things where it’s clear that we’ve made a bad decision. Because one definition of suffering is: that’s the moment where you see things as they really are and you don’t like what you see.” — Naval
End/ Thank you for reading. I hope you found it as useful as I did <3
