Free Fatty Friday #16: Miami: Autophagy, Novelty, Serendipity. Mar 05, 2021

Show notes

I have officially moved to Miami, Florida! It's great so far and I break down my initial positive impressions into three categories: (1) Autophagy, (2) Novelty, and (3) Serendipity.

(3:55) 1. Autophagy - how to recycle and re-underwrite our schedule and our productivity.

(15:13) 2. Novelty - how to inject new stimuli to keep our minds and our attitude young and childlike.

(22:16) 3. Serendipity - how to maximize the random luck that physical interactions enable.
