#165 Dealing With Insanity In Life: Trump's Assassination Attempt, Biden Stepping Down, And Crowdstrike
The Adventure with Stephen Courson
07/26/24 • 6 min
The past few weeks have been one of the craziest I can remember. Enough happened for an entire year, let alone a week. I got sucked into old bad habits like arguing with people pointlessly online and watching the mainstream news even though I know they're spinning the truth or lying outright. At the end of the week, I felt icky. I forgot how poisonous it is. So this is how I recommend dealing with insanity in life. Between Microsoft, Kamala's appointment without anyone voting for her, Trump's VP pick and so much more, we can't let the world overwhelm us with things we can't control. You control your time, energy, money and attention. Don't let it get wasted too much on things that don't directly impact your life right now.

President Trump will be the President again after defeating Democrat candidate Kamala Harris.

They're calling it The Great Resignation. More people than ever are leaving their jobs for new ones or to start their own business.

#132 The HotShot Experiment: What Batman And I Now Have In Common
The Adventure with Stephen Courson
07/25/23 • 13 min
I am experimenting on myself.
For years, I've studied why people don't change and why they do.
Change is hard. Doesn't matter if its about getting your finances together and investing and budgeting or trying to eat healthier and exercise or just get better at a skill for your job.
It's worth it! But its not easy....or is that a lie?
What if it was easy to change? What if all you needed was a mask like a superhero such as a Batman or Spiderman?
Well, that's what I want to find out.
Over the next 90 days, I will be adopting the alter ego of my ideal person and his name is HotShot.
This is the lifestyle and fitness challenge that is part of the experiment.
HotShot loves to wake up at 5am. Stephen likes to get up around 6:30.
HotShot jogs a 5k 5 days a week. Stephen thinks jogging is stupid.
HotShot hits the punching bag 5 minutes everyday. Stephen...doesn't.
I have no goals for this (except to not get institutionalized at the end).
All I have are these rules. Its scary, I'm not going to lie. This is a daunting change for me.
So follow along on YouTube Shorts or TikTok for the next 90 days if you want to see how it goes!
