5 Thought Friday
Check out these 5 Thoughts for the week!
1. What I am currently reading, viewing, or listening to:
Michael Easter, health author, on Joe Rogan Experience (click here if you subscribe to Spotify). I watched it at 1.8x.
If not, here is a brief video on leaving our comfort zone from Michael Easter, with 5 keys to a happier life:
Stop Sleepwalking - stop living a mundane life and change your routine
Rediscover Boredom - reboot the brain and create space for creativity
Become a 2%’er - Move and exercise (take the stairs)
Realize we are all going to die - it makes us realize to live an enhanced life
Discovery your Misogy - Go beyond your comfort zone
2. Gratitude Practice (for improved happiness):
Grateful for the most amazing Mediterranean leftovers last night. Salmon, quinoa, minestrone soup, olive oil, and whole-grain bread…..and I’m very thankful!
3. Wellness ideas to consider:
Walking faster (not necessarily more steps) adds to your healthspan and longevity.

4. What I’m eating, drinking, buying, or whatever else is on my mind:
I wrote this for full transparency since I mainly focus on wellness. However, life does need some simple joys that come along with refined carbohydrates (aka sugar).
Remember, sometimes you will fail along the journey, but do not kick yourself….learn and move forward positively.
5. Quote(s) I am Pondering:
“No matter what your age or your life path, whether making art is your career or your hobby or your dream, it is not too late or too egotistical or too selfish or too silly to work on your creativity.” Julia Cameron, The Artist's Way
Happy Friday!
Mike
