As far as what to read, I recommend walking around your local used bookshop, library, or Goodwill and bring home a nice nourishing pile of books that look interesting.
I would never trust an AI or algorithm or even a friend to recommend books.
You know what you like.
I think these are all positive comments, and there's a bigger thread that runs through this.
Cognitive fitness matters.
Like, when you start caring about your mind...
People are having profound impacts.
I would argue a lot of these impacts sound a lot more profound even than what people talk about when they add exercise to their life.
A calmness they've never felt before.
Their days are much better.
And they're willing to go farther towards this.
Like we know there's people who are really committed to physical fitness and we're impressed by it.
We should be equally impressed by these examples.
I get up early and read 100 pages every day.
I just don't use social media at all.
These are the type of things that are leading to really positive impacts in people's lives.
So I think that's a good collection of messages to talk about here because this revolution is going to happen, and I would like you to be a part of it.
All right.
What do we got as our second one here, Jesse?
All right, so I haven't read this article yet that Rob sent us, so we're going to do this in real time together.
