RFK Jr. got very real on Jocko’s podcast about his 14-year struggle with heroin.
He had iron willpower in every other part of life. At 13 he gave up candy for Lent and never touched it again. Same with desserts. But drugs?
He couldn’t keep a single promise to himself. He’d wake up dead serious, “this is the last time”, and by afternoon he’d be using again. He said it felt like someone else had stepped into his body and taken over the wheel.
That constant betrayal of your own word is one of the most crushing parts of addiction.
Addiction doesn’t just wreck your body. It destroys your relationship with yourself.
The gorilla doesn’t stop dancing when you want it to.
What’s something you’ve struggled to overcome even when you had strong willpower in other areas of life?
@TpwithPolarity Karen: What do you do?
Henry: I’m in construction.
[Karen feels his soft hands]
Karen: They don’t feel like you’re in construction.
Henry: Ah, I’m a union delegate.
@edrushpilot@edrushpilot We live in different countries (currently), but we do report to the same Boss. 😉
Your posts aren't getting the attention they deserve, but I want to encourage you to keep them coming because I appreciate them.
@AutismCapital 🇨🇦 Canada got rid of pennies years ago and we just round to the nearest nickel. It's way better.
Now when I go to the USA and get pennies for change I usually just throw them in the garbage.
@ALazyDredgen@teralharris07@DefiyantlyFree Oh, well then I can't help you if you've already made up your mind. I can see why you'd be terrified though. He is unstoppable. Hopefully he's not and things turn out for good. Best of luck to you! 👍
@ALazyDredgen@teralharris07@DefiyantlyFree Do you really honestly think Elon is a Nazi?
If I were the richest guy on the planet who controlled rockets and this x platform, I'd probably find a different way to tell people that wouldn't be open to interpretation.
(I'm not a Nazi, btw, they're evil)
@teralharris07@DefiyantlyFree Haha, can you imagine if he was like a 'criminal' criminal? Running a cartel, smuggling drugs with SpaceX, and delivering to consumers with self-driving Teslas? All protected by an army of Optimus robots?
At least he's choosing to try and do good saving people's tax money.
@KatKanada_TM Have you ever been on a merry-go-round? And when the hum of the motor changes you start to feel the loss of momentum?
All the adults know the ride is almost over but the kids are unaware.
Sorry Canada, that's where we are. We need to join the USA. But not everyone knows yet.
@teralharris07@DefiyantlyFree Maybe, but you can't argue that he makes things happen. Most engineers and scientists in the world are just highly educated employees. They're interchangeable.
Elon brings the alchemy. Nobody else is doing what he does.
@teralharris07@DefiyantlyFree But, have you ever seen what he actually does with his money? He puts everything on the line and builds world changing businesses. What has been his impact on direct and indirect jobs and the overall economy? I'd say let's just outright give him $1 Trillion, no strings attached.
