⏱️ Things you won’t regret
💡 2 THOUGHTS FROM ME
I. Things people don’t regret in their later years:
Having kids
Spending money on experiences
Spending time with friends
Taking care of their health
Being generous
Investing in their marriage
Giving it a shot, even if it didn’t work out
They may be hard in the moment, but they’re worth it over the long haul.
Which things on this list are you currently neglecting?

II. When thinking about starting a new habit, ask yourself: “What will I stick with, even on my worst day?”
This is where you start. Build the habit of showing up first. Then increase.
The #1 reason goals fail is because people start with oversized desire and undersized practice.
Master the habit of showing up, then raise the resistance.
💬 2 HELPFUL QUOTES
I. Tim Keller on what the resurrection means:
"If you are looking at Christianity, start by looking at Jesus' life as it is shown us in the gospels, especially at the resurrection. Don't begin, as modern people do, by asking yourself if Christianity fits who you are. If the resurrection happened, then there is a God who created you for himself and ultimately, yes, Christianity fits whether you can see it now or not.
If he's real, and risen, then just like [the apostle Paul], even though he had none of the answers to any of his questions (when he became a Christian), you'll have to say, 'What would you have me do, Lord?'"
II. Jerzy Gregorek on how to live an easy life:
“Hard choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life. If you are willing to do the hard things, life can be pretty easy. But if you only do the easy things, life will be very hard.”
📖 1 BRIEF BOOK REVIEW
Co-Intelligence by Ethan Mollick
This book explores AI—specifically using examples from ChatGPT—and provides practical insights on how to use it effectively. It covers the current state of AI, its potential future, and actionable ways to engage with it today.
I found it both interesting and fascinating to see the real-world possibilities AI already creates. The book also demonstrates how to properly prompt and use ChatGPT in ways most people probably don’t realize.
If you’re interested in the AI space, I’d definitely recommend this book. It has led me to use and experiment with AI in ways I wouldn't have thought of before.
That said, the writing can be a bit dry (though, given the topic, that may be expected), so it’s not exactly a page-turner. However, I’m glad I read it and learned from it.
