Listened to the @SamanthaRyNZ Save Planet, Get Rich podcast with Naval Ravikant @naval.
Naval was on fire. It took me two hours to get through an hour long podcast. I had to keep pausing to take notes.
Here are my main take-aways from this excellent podcast episode.

"If it is not making you happier, or healthier, or calmer, or having better relationships, or wealthier, then what good is it? It's useless. You can safely discard it." @naval
Great perspective on what to pay attention to and what to safely ignore.

"It is very easy for self-improvement to degenerate into self-conflict, and self-conflict to self-misery." @naval
It is great to improve and develop yourself. Just make sure you are coming from a place of self love and respect.

"Maximize the level of happiness available to you." @naval
You may not be able to be the happiest person in the world. But you can be happier than you currently are. It is a skill you can develop.

"Most of us are carrying very obsolete self-images that no longer correspond to the actual environment that we're in." @naval
Don't keep buying into your old narratives. Very good chance they no longer apply based on current evidence.

"The only opinion of me that I care for is my own, and the only time frame is now." @naval
Future opinions of you do not matter. Other's opinions of you do not matter. Live according to your own standards.

"If you want to save the world, save your little corner of the world." @naval
Anything you want to change ... it needs to start at home.

"For something to hurt you, you have to let it. If you're letting it, that means there is a part of you that believes it." @naval
Very Stoic! You can't be hurt unless you let yourself be hurt. It's up to you.

"If you are completely honest, they can't touch you." @naval
You best bet is always to be your genuine, authentic self.
