All the while, you carry a device capable of reaching almost anyone you have ever known within seconds. You can see what old friends ate for dinner, watch strangers vacation on the other side of the world, and know when someone gets married, divorced, promoted, sick, angry, enlig

    Your Future Is Stealing Your Today (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    For years, I had the same ritual of immediately checking my phone upon waking for messages, and calendar events. This is because we are taught to live one step ahead of ourselves. We wake up thinking about what needs to happen later, move through the morning preparing for the afternoon, spend the afternoon anticipating the evening, and step into the night already negotiating with tomorrow. None of this seems unusual, because nearly everyone around us is doing the same thing. We call it being res

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

Nobody sat you down and explained that your value would eventually become entangled with what you earned, where you lived, what you owned, how busy you appeared, or whether other people considered you accomplished. It happened slowly. You watched what was praised. You noticed what people admired. You learned which people were s

    The Reason You Lost Enthusiasm About Everything (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    If you are enjoying this recording, you can support me by subscribing at https://substack.com/@antitheticalway There comes a point when the things that once excited you simply stop working. The purchase you spent weeks thinking about is delivered to your door and barely changes your mood. The compliment you received feels good for a few minutes before disappearing. A number climbs on a screen, someone notices what you’ve done, another goal is reached, and somehow none of it carries the weight it
