Episode notes
Bathroom Moment Made Perception Real
- Cory recounts an 'unbearable lightness of peeing' moment when Buckminster Fuller's phrase clicked into lived perception.
- That bathroom moment collapsed the movie-set walls and made him vividly aware of his own perception.
Act Locally When Overwhelmed
- Focus on what is directly in front of you instead of trying to solve global problems you can't affect alone.
- Change begins by improving your immediate actions, relationships, and responsibilities.
Writing Turns Thoughts Into Objectivity
- Writing externalizes fleeting ideas so you can see what you actually think rather than what your excited mind imagines.
- Cory says revisiting written work reveals which ideas are durable versus transient enthusiasm.
