does anyone have any idea for any first books I should read? I want to take up reading as I’ve never done it in my life and I am sick of my phone being in my hand at all hours of the day, life’s got mundane so I’d like to start something new. I’d like to read some self improvement stuff but maybe also a bit of fiction as I know I used to enjoy that when I was younger. I don’t really know where is a good place to buy books online either so any help would be greatly appreciated 🙌🏻

I'm fighting tommorow, which is terrifying as always. I'm nervous, excited, and emotional, and I'm working hard to feel and express all those emotions as fully as possible so they dont stay down in my subconscious and surface in my life as stress, worry, or latent pain. I want to hear from other people and talk about what it is that you guys are afraid of, because fear points us towards the truth, and our path forward. One of my favourite quotes "the cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek" always rings true. Confronting the thing we fear most is always going to be the best path forward, so what is it that you all see as your greatest fear and the next thing for you to tackle in life?

Also, just saying this so I can make it real: I'm writing a book. I want all my ideas in one place and I'm sick of trying to cobble together other people's work when I get asked for reading recommendations to try and represent my ideas. Watch this space lol

Moved out of uni for the last time yesterday and I felt really odd and glum the entire day. I haven’t personally loved uni, I love the social aspect but I’m not an academic person and I never have been. I thought to myself why I felt like this and I believe it’s because I feel like I’ve wasted 3 years of my life. All I’ve done is achieved bang average grades, got myself in £50,000 worth of debt and got into bad habits like smoking weed every day, getting up late and being inconsistent with the gym. On the drive back from uni I listened to restoring baseline episodes 4,5 and 6. I did feel a lot better after listening to those. I realised that I need to love where I am and the habits I have and I need to accept that it’s okay I’ve done those things as I can’t go back in the past. I do still feel pretty anxious about everything to be honest. It feels like in my life I have always had somewhere to run to and take the easy way out. That’s what uni was for me when I was 18 because I couldn’t be bothered to look into other routes like going to a business school or learning a trade. It’s like I can’t run away anymore and It’s time to actually become an adult which I find daunting but I know it’s what I need in my life.

New episode out. If you've listened to the previous ones you've heard me talk about a lot of concepts and insights I have about the world we are living in and how we can move through it, generally at a high level. This episode is me breaking down what I know about exercise, sleep, nutrition, and mindset. https://open.spotify.com/episode/4UXxGEoMjSTeupgmXUADgR
