Doctor Mike

I mean, if you're going to the doctor every single day and all you're thinking about is your health and yourself and your body and your abs, you're gonna be miserable.

You're gonna be looking in a mirror all day long.

You're not gonna have normal relationships.

There's a funny stat.

this is a weird one that, that the happiest men are happiest men over 40.

You're not over 40 yet.

So it'll happen.

You know, it says it happened four years away.

Yeah.

I feel like I'm 36 too, you know, but that the happiest men over 40 are 25 pounds overweight.

Hmm.

And I don't want that to be true.

It's not because of the gentlemanly paunch.

It's because they're relaxed about their lives.

It's because if you're 61, like me, and you've got washboard abs, you're making a big sacrifice for that.

And that sacrifice might not be a healthy sacrifice for you.

And that's actually worth keeping in mind because it's more important for you to actually eat a slice of pizza with your wife.

Well, so you remember when you studied math in college, right?

You have to optimize across more than one variable.

That means that not everything is that it's individual optimization.
