The most important lesson I learned in my first few jobs is to triple check everything. If I'm blocked, the first impulse is to ping, and that's the wrong move. When asking help to unblock, give evidence that you have triple checked everything. TRIPLE CHECK!!

The Jhanas are real. I used to deeply explore the Jhanas for ~4-6wk (mostly Rob Burbea's lectures), and now I have mostly stopped (busy with other things atm). Writing down my thoughts about Jhana, my tips to my pre-Jhana self, lessons learned etc, while the memory is fresh.

Incredible write-up by pix on how entering the jhanas (especially J3) increased baseline happiness by ~10x and practical tips to get from zero to one (pre-jhana to J1). "The Jhanas are wonderful, and honestly idk why it's not taught to every single human being on Earth."

What you want from coworkers/candidates: helpful, skilled, and kind. Skilled is whether they contribute, helpful is whether they know the right thing to work on, kind is the delivery of the contribution. Remove one and things don't work out.

there is no cost, there is only returns. if you spend $100 and get $200 back, ofc you should go do it. but some people see the $100 price tag and run away, failing to see the $200 return. the only valid question for non-consumerism spend is "whats the roi" some spends are highly
