make in their daily lives i would say firstly try to read something every single day um it doesn't need to be a lot it doesn't even need to be a book it could be a newspaper it could be an article online something like that just something to keep you engaged you'd be surprised if you're not someone who reads regularly just by making that small change how much it can affect your vocabulary how much it can affect the clarity of your thinking and your ability to express ideas so certainly reading more i also wish people would stop attributing malice to people unwarrantedly right we see this all the time in online debate somebody might make an argument and instead of saying hey you're wrong and misguided or even just stupid but your you're intentionally deceiving your audience you're being a liar you're a fraud all of this kind of stuff it's just so unhelpful obviously if there's reason to think that that's the case then fine but a lot of the time it's thrown out without such reason but also just in daily life i mean if you're walking down the street and somebody bumps into you on your shoulder or if you're having a conversation with someone and somebody makes a really rude remark it's a natural first reaction to think you know screw that guy but just take a moment to think like am i sure that there was like malice behind this uh is there not possibly an explanation um maybe they didn't realize what they were saying maybe they don't know the context as to why what they said was so hurtful maybe the person who barged fast you just got a phone call that his wife's gone into labor or something unless you've actually got good reason to think that someone is acting out of malice i think it's a much easier and more comfortable way to live to make the assumption of no malice until proven otherwise rather than the other way around i think people should sleep more or at least sleep effectively i think that people vastly underestimate how important sleep is you know they don't even they don't even do that they don't even it's like they know how important sleep is but still neglect it now of course yeah i do this myself everybody does this to some extent um i also recognize that not everybody has a choice in this matter right like maybe you're working in a night shift maybe you're like a single mother sleep can be a pretty tricky thing to come by in these circumstances but if you are that kind of person and i'm that person a lot of the time uh who the reason why you're getting to sleep at two in the morning or something like this is because you're on social media or because you're checking your emails when realistically you could be doing it tomorrow this change is fairly small i want to say change it can have such a huge impact on your clarity on obviously your how awake you feel on your motivation on your mood on so many different things matthew walker wrote a book quite a popular book called why we sleep and he discusses the importance of sleep and the book just blew me away not only in teaching me just how important sleep is to basically every single mental function that we have as human beings um but also the way that he talks about the human psychology in terms of people just deciding to not sleep properly he
