“Do you add exactly eight gallons of gas to your car at exactly 10 pm every day? That sounds nuts. So why would you add exactly 8 hours of sleep to your body from exactly 10 pm to 6 am every day?... Find joy in getting to know your body.” — @authbition medium.com/namaste-now/wh…

Designing products with the entire care cycle in mind means considering manufacturing. Making a job difficult or painful for assembly workers? That's not good design. True innovation involves empathy, even on the factory floor. #DesignThinking #Empathy

This is inspired by @rubenfsalinas latest Substack. yournextascent.com/p/i-lost-two-s… We're recording what will be episode 55 in a few hours.

The fleeting things we love to do are clues for the enduring things we truly love

Showing up and serving your team builds admiration. When you work twice as hard on tasks others avoid, you demonstrate dedication that truly motivates and earns respect. #Leadership #Teamwork

In episode 51 of Authbition, I get the pleasure of sitting down with @EtienneNichols. We talk about the art of networking. We dig into what differentiates people on a team are not the skills required for the job. Enjoy the show. authbition.com/content/a051-e…

The thrill of a challenge fades with easy answers. Life's struggles, the discomfort, are what make the game truly fun—not the cheat codes. #Mindset #Growth

Facing challenges isn't about avoiding difficulty, but about finding ease within the struggle. It's the art of navigating the mountain with switchbacks, making the ascent smoother by embracing the 'easy way in' without sacrificing progress. #Mindset #Resilience #PersonalGrowth

Tablets in schools are super useful, but the line blurs when they're also used at home. We give them to students for the classroom, yet struggle to limit their use outside. It was simpler before, but the tech is here to stay. #EdTech #DigitalLearning

Riding the AI train all day every day can atrophy your brain. It's scary to think about losing our own thinking power. That's why embracing AI needs balance. #AIEthics #BrainHealth

E-bikes for kids sound awesome for family rides, but will kids always choose them over regular bikes? And what happens when the whole neighborhood wants one? #EBikes #Parenting #IllusionsOfConvenience

After 50 episodes, the feeling is clear: Authbition is far more than a podcast. It's an 11-week Airstream journey. It's a movement. #Authenticity #Ambition #PodcastLife

Episode 50 is live!!! authbition.substack.com/p/episode-fift…

It's critical to discern when NOT to use AI or e-bikes. While amazing use cases exist, making rules and setting boundaries is essential to avoid over-reliance. Promise: I'll create rules for when I won't let AI assist me. #AI #TechChoices #Ebikes

Forget 'fuck you money.' True independence is in skilled hands: welding, farming, raising animals, fixing engines. When conveniences fail, these skills are the real currency. #SelfReliance #Skills #Independence

In Iceland, a sudden hailstorm led to a delightful discovery: a charming cafe. Stepping inside felt like entering a beautifully decorated communal grandmother's house, with unique, ornate decor in every corner. #Iceland #TravelStory

The concept of 'fortunate resilience' took months to grasp, but playing this game with you finally made it click. It's a powerful realization born from shared experience. #GameDev #Resilience #Friendship #WholeMindGame

Getting a good night's sleep couldn't be easier! "My dogs don’t need an Apple Watch, Whoop, or Oura Ring to get a good snooze on. So why should I?" Good point, Andrew! I Slept Through an Oil Refinery Explosion Then Forgot How to Rest by @authbition medium.com/namaste-now/i-…

“I make time every day to play. I’ve taken the time to define my complete day. If you care to know how I got here. The best answer I have is, “I didn’t.” I’m enjoying the journey. And I still am.” — @authbition medium.com/namaste-now/wh…

Is there truly such a thing as nonfiction? Even when 4 people witness the same event, their accounts will differ. Which story is factual? The line between autobiography, memoir, and even auto-fiction is blurry, like a painter's self-portrait. #Nonfiction #Storytelling
