"Wouldst Thou Like To Live Deliciously?"

Stress focuses your attention in ways good times can't. It kills procrastination and indecision, taking what you need to get done and shoving it so close to your face that you have no choice but to pursue it, right now and to the best of your ability.

i just started 'The Psychology of Money' by Morgan Housel and i'm actually loving it so far. shocks me that it would be hard to put down a nonfiction book about money but I absolutely love how he's discussing generational impacts and effects. i'm one chapter in and i'm really hoping i continue to enjoy it. there have been a couple of moments where it's very clear it's written by a rich white guy, but it feels very adaptable/applicable so far as well.

Same as Ever, Morgan Housel (Non-fiction, 224 Pages, Paperback, Harriman House Publishing)

[haveyoureadthispoll]

Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. Money--investing, personal finance, and business decisions--is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.

Title: The Psychology of Money

Author: Morgan Housel

Psychology and Money are words seldom combined in a sentence or even in a phrase. That’s what I presumed. They’re seemingly and respectively categorized under Science and Art sort of texts. In this publication, their correlations are proved to be profound. Morgan Housel’s the Psychology of Money imparts wisdom in handling one’s finances; its lessons are backed up with researched statistical and numerical information. Below are few enumerated takeaways:

This book is predominantly focused on western economic history.

Saving money consistently and continuously is a core concept mentioned in this read.

Luck, time, risk and pessimism are some of the actual variables in growing one’s money, as told by this written work.

The authorship utilized comprehensible terms and justifications making its entirety terse. Thus, this is totally beneficial for anyone who’s attempting to peruse it, even just a portion of it.

QUOTES

And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. Finance is different. It’s guided by people’s behaviors.

History never repeats itself; man always does. (Voltaire)

What seems crazy to you might make sense to me.

Studying history makes you feel like you understand something. But until you’ve lived through it and personally felt its consequences, you may not understand it enough to change your behavior.

Some lessons have to be experienced before they can be understood. (Michael Batnick)

Expecting things to be bad is the best way to be pleasantly surprised when they’re not.

Coming to terms with how much you don’t know means coming to terms with how much of what happens in the world is out of your control. And that can be hard to accept.

Was it really necessary to tell her that if you spend money on things, you will end up with the things and not the money?

Boundaries & Barriers 🥕

This morning I learned that eating a carrot and liquifying a carrot to drink it as a juice are not the same thing at all and my mind has been completely blown. 

I once heard a myth that said that, we, human beings, were once immortal beings until we began to eat the flesh of the dead (animals included). 

It always perplexed me because I remember being a kid and not enjoying the fact that we had to eat animals much, but what did I know? I was a newbie to this world—figuring that those that were guiding us because they are older must know what they are doing. 

Morgan Housel tweeted that on Sunday July 30th, 2023. 

Had I known that this was the truth and that everyone had no idea what they were doing or talking about at the age my son is now: 7, I might have taken over the world long ago. 

Back to Carrots. 🥕

When you eat a carrot,  Its fibers help brush and clean up your inner organs.  You also get very little sugar out of that carrot in that form since you are swallowing pieces. 

When we liquify the carrot we’ve converted it all into sugar. Duh.  And now,  We’re consuming all the sugar we never had to and don’t need,  Plus,  We’re losing the value of the carrot’s fibers brushing up against our intestines on their way through to the toilet, cleaning our insides up, so we don’t always need colonics. 

Duh. 

And now,  I can’t believe I never understood that in this form,  Wouldn’t it make some sense that bacon, too, is like liquifying a carrot since it isn’t the pig’s original form? 

And maybe all these years  What I felt about eating animals was right.  Maybe we can eat things that are alive, but not everything and maybe not flesh at all. 

Meaning: plants are alive, too. 

And I know that plenty of people will say that we must eat meat to sustain and to have or gain and maintain any strength. 

Tell them to— Think of an OX. It’s a massive and muscular beast that did not require any protein in form of flesh to be so. That herbivore only eats plants, grains, and grasses...

Some things are in front of us and some we would never see if it wasn’t for modern innovation and technologies that continue to break barriers & boundaries. We’re still in the Information Age. 

It would be a shame to allow all this knowledge around the world to continue to go unaggregated while being at the peak of Communications pioneering. I mean, just last night I listened to a podcaster discuss his Starlink setup in the Amazon jungle.

I gave Housel to the Horned God of my tradition recently, and afterward, I discovered a pair of enormous Elk tracks nearby that weren't there when I first arrived. Being unknowingly overseen by this particular denizen of the Wild, during this particular rite, felt auspicious enough to me that I retrieved my phone so I could go back and take a photo of the tracks. The fact that there were only two hoofprints that I was able to see anywhere in that area was especially interesting, as the ground was muddy enough to capture all but the softest of treads. It gave the prints a very satyric feel.

Morgan Housel: Stop moving the goalpost

“The hardest financial skill is getting the goalpost to stop moving. But it’s one of the most important. If expectations rise with results there is no logic in striving for more because you’ll feel the same after putting in extra effort. It gets dangerous when the taste of having more—more money, more power, more prestige—increases ambition faster than satisfaction. In that case one step forward…
