I’ve been back in Stockholm for 2 days after 4.5 months in Finland I’m wearing a mask whenever around other people 😷 Yesterday a group of teenage boys started coughing on me. Today a middle age man attacked me. Overall people very passive aggressive towards me

Best thing I did for myself this weekend was going for a long walk and re-listening to one of my favorite podcast episodes: @ShaneAParrish interview with @naval . Not once did I take out my phone - I simply walked and listened 🙏

Naval Ravikant: The Angel Philosopher [The Knowledge Project Ep. #18]

In his most in-depth interview, Naval Ravikant discusses reading, happiness, decision making, habits, the meaning of life, and Mental Models.
