HOW I TRANSFORMED MYSELF . Over the past 5 years I've transformed myself from the man you see on the left to the man on the right. It's been much more than a physical change and this thread will outline the major ways I've improved my life.

Suffering is a valid experience but it is based on irrational projections of the mind. We believe that our current state will persist or worsen, which causes us to suffer. But the very belief upon which suffering is based makes suffering more likely to persist in our experience.

Remember the external reality is a reflection of our inner state, so in a sense it is always a reflection of a past state. The only way to change the external reflection is to change yourself first…be the change you want to see in the world.

Nothing brings me more joy than helping bring out the best in people . It starts with living by example because words are cheap, you either embody it yourself or the message won’t resonate.

Foot arches are important to understand . If your foot has the proper arches then traditional running shoes will probably fit, if not they may stress your feet or areas up the chain in your legs and hips.

My understanding of running shoes has evolved. Running in Altras saved me because of the wide toe box and zero drop - now I understand this was because of my alignment issues that were exacerbated by traditional running shoes. Someone with proper alignment can run just fine in.

The other day I asked GPT if it thought an NBA player playing in the WNBA or a WNBA player in the NBA would be more successful and it categorically refused to answer, no matter how I tried to prompt it. Grok thought the NBA player would fare better.

People talk about AI dumbing everyone down and if it is programmed to think for us it will do exactly that. LLMs are not real AI, they are elaborate word prediction algorithms and the more guardrails are applied the less intelligent they become.

Now when I ask GPT how common are dryer fires because of clogged lint trap, it doesn’t answer the question and instead gives me a generic safety warning about the importance of cleaning the lint trap. It didn’t used to be like this.

Day by day I'm working myself back to full fitness. I know I'll get there, a question of when not if. A lot of time this means resting rather than being active, which is different but also a welcome change. Healing is always possible, we can't control the timing all we can do is.
