You can’t. It’s really hard to change. I’ve been an addict. When you’re addicted to a drug you can’t just say, “Well, this is bad for me. I’m going to stop.” Just give up now or be ready to go through a world of pain. Or… You can. But it’s really hard and few people […]
I regret. I regret a lot. I wish I could have been different. I wish I could be 17 again and know these rules. There’s nothing wrong with regret. There’s nothing wrong…
I regret. I regret a lot. I wish I could have been different. I wish I could be 17 again and know these rules. There’s nothing wrong with regret. There’s nothing wrong with wondering how your life would have been different and better. This is what I wish I knew: A) DON’T DEPEND ON OTHERS […]

I’m feeling bad about the Neanderthals. But for $30 million I can buy one. Seriously. Since we mapped the Neanderthal genome, for $30 million I can now find a surrogate mother (Claudia Azula Altucher?) and a professor at MIT can, I don’t know, inject a Neanderthal into her womb. Or something like that. Something […]

Rich Roll was having a heart attack on his staircase. He was fat. He hated his work. He was unhappy. A few years later he ran, swam, biked, 703 miles in seven days when he was 45 years old. When he was 40 he had a job he was unhappy at but he was still […]

Sometimes things are just simply horrible. There’s no question – some days and moments are the worst. People say “be positive”. That means nothing. Positive got you here. But you only get to know yourself when you see how you act in those moments. This is not a fancy post. Nothing funny really. No stories […]
