I remember sitting there as the doctors explained how aggressive my cancer treatment would be. They told me the chemotherapy was so powerful that if it came into contact with the nurse's skin—or mine—it could cause third-degree burns. I couldn't help but think, If that's what it can do...

I love this idea from Jason Fried "Your only competition is your costs." Keep costs low, keep the team small, make stuff you want to use. You don't need the whole world: “A business is very simple. You got to make more than you spend. If you're making more than you spend, then your competition is your cost. That's what you're really in business against, how much it costs you to stay in business. It's not all the other alternatives that are on the market. You can't control what they're going to put out there, what they're going to price it at, all the things they're going to do. They're going to do what they're going to do. What I can control is how much it costs me to run my business, how much I sell my product for, and as long as I make more than I spend, I get to stay in business. And isn't that what this is all about, staying in business? That's what it's all about because I like this. I want to keep doing this. I can't keep doing it if I don't stay in business. I can't keep doing it if I make less than it costs me to make the things that I make. So I'm always thinking about the only competition I really have on an annual basis is to make sure that we make more as a company than it costs us to run the company. That's my real competition.”

Peter Thiel on the advice all young people need to hear: "My bias was that education was a substitute for thinking about your future. What are you going to do with your future? I don't know. I'll get an undergraduate degree. What are you going to do once you have that? I don't know. I'll get a graduate degree ... And so when we think of our lives as just adding these line items on a resume, I think that's actually not the best way to go about it."

Tyrann Mathieu says Patrick Peterson helped him pay his rent one month while in college together at LSU, but with a condition, he would work so hard he would never have to ask for help again “I remember I called you. It was like a month before we went to camp. I said, ‘Big bro, I don’t know how I’m going to pay the rent this year.’ “That’s a common story with young players. They think they’ve got money that they don’t necessarily have, so they spend a certain way. It was just a hard lesson. “I remember you came down, you had the Chase envelope in your hand, and you gave me more than what I needed. But I remember what you told me before you walked back inside. You looked me in my eye and said, ‘Bro, this is the last time.’ “That stuck with me like 12 years later. Even though you were hard on me, you made me accountable. You knew what I needed.” Patrick Peterson: “And I’m hard on you, right? But I wanted so much of you, and I knew what it was going to take to get that out of you so you could see it. Because I used to tell you this, when I was growing up, I saw so many guys with crazy athletic ability, but they wasted it. “I didn’t want you to waste what you got. You were special. So therefore, I’m going to give you everything that I can to make you the best player and person that you are. “Going back to when you say I was hard on you, to this day, that’s what my girls tell me. ‘Daddy, you’re so hard on us.’ But then when we have Thanksgiving or Father’s Day, they appreciate it. “That’s my job. I know it may be mundane or you don’t feel like listening to it right now, but that’s my job, to see around the corner before you get there. To guide you through certain things, help you make better decisions, or help you maybe think differently. That’s my job.”

I asked Luke Kornet about his memories from stretches where he was a DNP for many games in a row, and what his message is to the young guys who find themselves in that position now: “It's just a lot of peace to come to life of accepting the position that you're in and then just doing the best with that, versus trying to fight it and want to be in a different one.” “You can spend a lot of time worrying about things that you can't really control. But when you just take the opportunity that you have and do the best with that, you can have days like today where a lot of guys came in and were able to contribute. You can have peace about knowing that you did your job well, just as you did the day before, the day after. It might just look a different way every time. I feel like that's what I've been taught through my life. That's the only thing attitude that you can have that you can actually do something with – versus trying to control things that are outside of what you can control.”

Really appreciate how thoughtful Jordan Burroughs is here about why he never made the transition to MMA: "I really considered it, like heavily considered it. One of the hardest parts about growing older, Ariel, is that you have to let dreams die. There are certain things that, when you're young and when you're hungry... you believe you can do it all... As you get older, you start to realize that, man, this may have passed for me. At the heart of why I wanted to go to MMA was the glamour. It was the celebrities ringside, it was the big paydays, it was the global recognition, and it wasn't the purity. Being a Christian... I thought that transition would be more about what I could get and who I could become, and I just don't think it would have been good for my faith, for my family, or for my marriage. That lifestyle would not have been healthy for a family man."

Dolly Parton said she'd never retire as long as the Lord left her on her feet, with her mind and her voice, she'd keep going. "No, I'll never retire. Unless I was sick or my husband was sick." "I've always said that. I would definitely, if I had to pull back to take care of him, I would. Or if I was too sick to do it." "As long as the Lord lets me be on my feet and my mind, and if I can keep my voice, then I'm going to do it." "Because I love it. I can't imagine my life without my music or my life without the business end of my music either. I love what I do. I love my job."

KAT when asked what it's like being the best 3PT shooter ever for a big man: "It's an honor. I worked on my game. When I was younger, that wasn't something that was supposed to happen. You're laughed at. You're told, What are you doing? You're wasting your time. You're never going to make it to college doing that. A lot of people are going to tell you no, what they think you need to do to make it to the NBA, to do all these things. But at the end of the day, you got to walk on your own path, write your own story. And that's what I did. I continue to work on my game, continue to work on my shot. People come back to me and give me all the congrats and congratulations and all this love for something they didn't help with; they told me to do the opposite. So that's how life always goes. Everyone got an opinion until someone actually does the work. Us two, we did the work, and they're going to have to watch our story be written without them having a chapter in it"

Q: It must be complicated, when I listen to you, to have a private life, somebody to understand your passion and to share this moment. Lewis: "It really is, especially I would say more so today than ever before, which is the way the world is, you know. I look at the other drivers and I wonder how they're doing it. You know, some are having kids and some married, some, you know, most of them girlfriends. I did that when I was in my 20s, but I took a decision to really to maximize my time that I have here because it's not as long as you think and it's limited, you know. And I don't want to look back and be like, ah, if I just gave a little bit more here, I didn't sacrifice my time because I was committed elsewhere." "So I really focused in these last, you know, particularly these last 10 years, like get everything I can out of my performance. Then when I retire, then I can do whatever I want. You know, I can dedicate my time to whatever else it is and not have to worry." "But in this competition time, focus on health, well-being, my mental health, my driving technique, being as good an engineer as I can be, and also being the best teammate that I can potentially be for the guys that I get to work with. That's my sole focus. You know, I want to win." "I've been fortunate enough to win with great teams in the past. Particularly, obviously, with Mercedes and with McLaren, which was incredible. And my dream is to win a championship with Ferrari." "And that's something that hasn't been done for a while. But they have absolutely every ingredient that's needed to win. It's just like getting all the pieces of the puzzle in the right place. And that's what I'm trying to work on in the background with Fred and the whole team." [📹 VIGNERON GAETAN]

Therapist Trey Tucker came on Relatable to talk about anxiety. I asked him, "If you could define anxiety, how would you define it?" Tucker: "Fear of the future. Fear of the unknown. The verse, 'Be still and know that I am God' used to make me so angry. I'm like, God, what do you mean be still? Like, I got a real problem here. I'm in a storm. Why do you want me to just be still? And what I realized is that the word, and I believe it's "Rapha" in the Hebrew, it doesn’t mean just ‘don’t move.’ It means ‘release your grip.’ The idea that I thought that I had control, that was a lie anyway. If I can start to realize like, yes, the circumstances might happen that are negative or I might be in the middle of a battle right now, but if I can loosen my grip and stop white knuckling it, then I can realize that like oh—God is God, not me, and He’s going to take care of me no matter what happens. That really is the solution to anxiety. It’s not changing your circumstances or slapping meds on it.”

Matthew McConaughey reveals the three words his dad said that changed his life “I said dad, I don't want to go to law school anymore. I want to go to film school and after about a 5 second pause, he goes, ‘Are you sure that's what you want to do?’ I reply yes sir” “Another long pause. Then I hear, ‘Well, don't halfass it’” “I remember just beaming, hopping up just like Yes! My dad not only said okay. The way he said don't halfass it, it was also, okay. Let's go big boy. Own that shit. Get some leverage. Get some horsepower behind where you're going. Go do it” “I remember to this day and I've learned this later I think from becoming a father, part of what I believe happened to him and why he said that to me that way on that call was the way that I asked him. I wasn't really asking. It was, ‘I don't want to go to law school, Dad. I want to go to film school.’ I didn't stutter. He heard his son saying this is what I want to do” “What I think happened to him in that moment is what I think any father, any parent loves. You raise your kids in a certain way and you give them a guideline, a ladder to climb and here's the guidelines and if you do it this way, you're most likely going to have some success in life and it'll work out for you and then when we do it that way, we can be proud parents” “But what do we really want to happen when our kids are out of the house and they're on their own? We kind of want them to call one day and go, ‘I'm breaking out. I'm going my own way.’ And as a parent, we go, as much as it may scare us, we're going, ‘Yes!’ I gave my kid the confidence and the courage and the foundation to say they're going to go their own way” “In a way, I think every parent honors and loves that moment. I heard my dad, when he didn't hear me stutter, when he heard me directly say what I said. I wasn't really asking him. Even though I was out of respect asking him, the way I said it, I wasn't asking him and I think he felt that” “Don't halfass it”

Travis Kelce says getting kicked off the Cincinnati football team forced him to build better habits and structure into his life “I was extremely fortunate. It wasn’t just my mother and my father. It was all the parents in the community that I grew up in that I felt like I had embarrassed too, the people that really helped me and supported me growing up.” “So many people vouched for me in that situation. My brother being one of them. They told me I had guidelines that I had to go through. What it did is it created routine and structure in my life that I hadn’t taken serious up until that point.” “Once I found that routine, I began to use that in every aspect of my life. I started using it when I watched film. I started using routine when I lifted weights or when I was training. It programmed my mind to find, ‘How can I get better as a person in all these little aspects of life?’” “My barber growing up told me to go look up Carnegie Mellon’s The Last Lecture. It was a beautiful story about how he figured out what mattered to him. It’s not how you achieve your dreams. It’s how you lead your life in the direction and the routine that you set, and how focused you are on the little things. That’s how you achieve everything.” “You don’t focus on the big goal at the end and have all this hope and desire. All that’s good. Everybody has that. But it’s the ones that strategically put it in place every single day.” “When I started to really get into that routine, man, I just took off. Football became so much more fun because I was having so much more success. I wasn’t just banking on my athleticism. I was using my mind to open up things and do things on the football field that I had never been able to do.”

👤: of course ARMYs loved your solo work. if i see one critique, they say they “wish you wrote more”. and that the album was “very western”, for better or worse. have you heard that, and what do you make of that idea? 🐰: that just happened to be my choice at the time. i could write more for my next album, if that’s what ARMYS want. 🐰: but back then i wanted something else. i wanted to get good songs and release an album as soon as i could. 🐰: that’s the whole reason. i also think the kinds of stories i can tell are pretty limited. i said in an interview somewhere that id rather make up stories to tell, but i have an S in my MBTI profile. so gosh, that was hard. 🐰: so in the future, once i have a lot to do and a lot to say, i think it will happen naturally.

A year ago, I received a letter from UnitedHealthcare that was meant to scare me into silence. I documented parts of the last year that I haven’t shared before. That morning, as I processed the shock of what was happening on my drive to the hospital, I turned on my phone and started recording. As I spoke to you, my resolve developed. I knew what I had to do. I had to stand up for the truth, my patients, and myself. Even though I was terrified, I found peace and purpose in that moment. Days later, when I shared the threatening letter with you all, you stood with me. I know we are far from done, but I share this now to remind you of the good we can do together.

A year ago, I received a letter from UnitedHealthcare that was meant to scare me into silence. I documented parts of the last year that I haven’t shared before. That morning, as I processed the shock of what was happening on my drive to the hospital, I turned on my phone and started recording. As I spoke to you, my resolve developed. I knew what I had to do. I had to stand up for the truth, my patients, and myself. Even though I was terrified, I found peace and purpose in that moment. Days later, when I shared the threatening letter with you all, you stood with me. I know we are far from done, but I share this now to remind you of the good we can do together.

🐤: When I asked, "What is my name?", they told me, "Leeteuk." I cried immediately. "Leeteuk"? Not even "E.T."... what kind of name is "Leeteuk"? I really cried a lot. I said, "I won't debut, I can't promote and work under the name Leeteuk." At that time, the members teased me so much: "Isn't it E.T.? E.T." I think Yesung teased me the most, I still remember. He said, "Woah! Hyung, what are you going to do? What are you going to do?" while my tears were falling... I said, "Ah, I really can't do this, what is Leeteuk? What is E.T.?" However, since a dinner meeting was already scheduled, I decided to ask to change the name during that dinner. I sat next to Teacher Lee Soo-man. It was while we were eating grilled tripe (yangdaechang) or something like that... I don't remember the exact name of the restaurant, but I remember its location clearly. When we met and started eating, I wanted to take the chance and said, "Teacher, but... isn't Leeteuk..." At that time, I had a few names that I brought with me, as my mother had gone to naming centers and brought me several options. Among them was the name "Sehyun", "Sehyun-i", and there was a name starting with "Ye...", about three names in total. I asked him, "What do you think of names like these?" He said, "No, Leeteuk. Isn't the name Leeteuk so great?" So I asked him, "What meaning does the name Leeteuk carry for it to be this nice?" He replied, "Hey! Kangta was like that, Junjin was like that, and Hyesung was like that... Aren't their names so cool? Didn't they love their names when I named them? They liked them very much. And you will like it too, right? Don't you like it?" I told him, "Yes, but... don't you think the name Leeteuk or E.T. sounds a bit heavy or sharp to pronounce? Will it be suitable?" He said, "No, it's a great name. It means (the special kid in this world). Leeteuk... isn't it great? The special kid in this world. This name carries a very beautiful meaning. You are going to become a special person in this world. Your seniors (sunbaes) loved the names I chose for them, and you will like yours too, right?" So I answered, "Yes..." Then I went back to the dorm that day, and I think it was Yesung - according to my memory it was Yesung - who asked me, "Hyung, what happened?" I told him, "It's over... I couldn't change it." When the teacher asks you, "Isn't it pretty? Your seniors loved it so much, and you will like it too, right?"... who could say to his face, "I hate it so much, I can't do it"? He put me in a situation where I had no choice but to agree. As long as he said my seniors loved it and I would like it too, I had no choice but to say, "Ah... yes, it's really great." And because of that, even though it's a stage name, I have been working and promoting under this name for 21 consecutive years. But what I like about it is that I have my real name, and whenever I need to write my name somewhere I can use my real name, so I think that's a good thing.

365 days ago I made a decision that saved my life. Not a diet. Not another fresh start that fizzled out by February. A decision to stop doing what was killing me and start doing what my body was actually built for. Today is my one year carniversary. And I need you to see this. 140 pounds gone. Type 2 diabetes reversed. Blood pressure normalized. Sleep apnea gone. Inflammation gone. Depression and anxiety gone. My body back. My LIFE back. No surgery. No injections. No pills. No trainer. No one carrying me through it. Just me. My daughter. This community. The data. And a decision I made and kept making every single day for 365 days. This post is not about weight loss. It is about a woman who was dying slowly and didn’t fully realize it. It is about what happens when you stop managing symptoms and start healing the actual cause. It is about what your body is capable of when you stop poisoning it and start feeding it what it was designed to run on. I wrote a book about everything I learned this year because I needed it to exist. I needed there to be something someone could pick up when they were exactly where I was a year ago, exhausted and sick and out of options, and see a way through. I am not the woman I was 365 days ago. I don’t recognize her anymore. I love her for surviving. But I don’t miss her. If you are sitting there right now thinking it is too late, or you have too much to lose, or your body is too broken, or you have tried everything… I was you. This changed my life. It saved my life. And it can save yours too. 🥩365 days. Just getting started.

"You can either produce excellence or you can avoid criticism. But you cannot do both of those. The reason that you don't have certain excellence that you want is because you are afraid of getting criticized. You are afraid of the judgment that comes with it. You are afraid of standing out. You are afraid of being alone. You are afraid of people looking at you. You are worried about what people think of you. There are 2 categories of things in this world: 1) Things that are up to you 2) Things that are not up to you Which category does your reputation sit in? Your reputation is not up to you. I'm the one who associates your reputation with something, not you. You just do things. What's up to you? How you act. Your decisions. Your actions. That is up to you. Your reputation is not up to you. Here's how I know that: You all have a reputation about me and it's not in my control. I get to say and do whatever I say and do up here. I am in control of saying it. I am in control of doing it. The moment words leave my lips, who has control over what is done with those words? You! You are in control of what you think of me. And there's no way everybody in this room is going to think the exact same thing about me. No way. When it comes to exceptional, what we've got to understand is you can spend your whole life trying to avoid criticism and earn reputation, and it still won't be in your control. We can waste a lot of time missing out on excellence we could have been producing if we were just simply LESS trying to engineer what we wanted other people to think about us."
