November 08, 2018 13:02 - 12 minutes - 12.8 MB

My dad always told me never to complain. It wont get you anywhere. People don’t like complainers and they don’t like whiners. The reason being that everyone has their own problems to deal with. It comes off as unbecoming. My dad’s exact words would be “don’t complain, because no one cares.” https://www.timstodz.com/how-to-toughen-up/

This is a Bullshit Headline

November 07, 2018 15:48 - 7 minutes - 8.15 MB

The online advertising model has corrupted our news outlets. Profitability is predicated on traffic, not accuracy. If no one clicks on the articles, and subsequently, if no one sees the ads, then no one gets paid. So to game the system, we started tricking people. We had to find ways to compete against the millions of other publications out there. So we got creative with our headlines. https://www.timstodz.com/this-is-a-bullshit-headline/

It’s one thing to say that you are “st...

The Lost Art of Concentration

October 17, 2018 12:20 - 22 minutes - 23.6 MB

If we want to contribute and if we want to design our lives around our purpose, then we need to be mindful of our attention. We need to be mindful of where it goes, how much of it we waste and how much of it we give away for free. Most people don’t deserve the attention you give to them. They didn’t earn it, they just tricked you into thinking that if you didn’t give it to them then you would miss out on something important.
