Episode notes
You Remember Moments Not Days
- Memory is unreliable so your life exists as a chain of chosen moments you decide to keep.
- Primary Motivational Voice suggests deliberately demarcating good moments and compressing bad ones to shape your remembered life.
Use The Five More Rule
- Do outwork the internal voice that tells you 'that ain't you' by forcing incremental extra effort.
- Primary Motivational Voice uses the 'five more' rule: when you can't, push five more, repeatedly, to build strength.
Fall Forward Embrace Risk
- Do take risks and 'fall forward' rather than clinging to a safety net; failure is how you learn.
- Use real examples like Edison’s 1,000 failed experiments and explicit directives to accept losing and getting back up quickly.
