    "Avoid getting into the business of manufacturing trombone oil" - Dan Burke advice to Bob Iger (from the awesome appendix to Iger's book). The most commercially effective people I've met are distinctively good at prioritizing where they put their energy.

    When you find people whose eyes you trust, a fall will feel more like a skydive

    I just reread Eleven Rings, when you put podcast w/ together w/ this one, their shared vibe reminds me of Phil Jackson’s description of Chicago Bulls circa 1995 w/ a mood of “innocent wonder” & the strong belief that “life is great”

    One takeaway for me from Tribe of Mentors is that I now take the Host Defense “comprehensive immunity” mushroom supplement whenever I’m starting to get sick. Knock on wood: I’m 9 and 0 on avoiding my kids’ & coworkers’ colds. Recommend trying it.

    I think DFW would have been into this Benedictine monk’s 5 minute reframe of any given day - this day - as a gift, where the only appropriate response is gratefulness: Truth & platitude, intertwined, which I see depends on the morning light.

    Yeah a bit of a tangent I know, but in “the Brain that Heals Itself” Norman Doidge highlights a researcher named Merzinich who is obsessed with the impact of white noise on the developing brain. Figure best to err on the side of not exposing babies to it.

    George Saunders on his friend and writing mentor Tobias Wolff. May we all find friends who cause the windows in our mind to fly open.

    On my theme of everyone’s genius is right next to their dysfunction, some supporting evidence/poetry from Packer’s study of Richard Holbrooke h/t (note I added the random line breaks for fun)

    Bryon Katie is a little out there for some people, but I think her relationship with her husband Stephen Mitchell is extraordinary & read her Zen approach to relationships with interest. Her book “I Need Your Love - Is that True?” is worth a skim to see if it sparks any insight.

    Love observation that firms are always at risk of succumbing to the “default logic” of their asset class or industry. It’s why the best hedge fund mgrs are reluctant to hire people trained in other containers & who bring default logic w/ them -

    Interesting theory post epic Wimbledon final that Djokovic’s neuroticism is his superpower:“he knows how to capitalize on a match’s moments of crisis because he is in a perpetual state of micro-crisis”: h/t

    Ayelet Waldman’s therapist has a good robot scenario to find these - which of your various obligations would you assign to a robot, and which would you reserve for yourself?

    “His ambition still had a clean smell” is a good line by George Packer re: Richard Holbrooke early in career. Reminds me of a line in Norman Rush’s novel Mortals: “She could be loving a clean heart, the lightness of being that a clean heart gives the voice, the eyes.”
