2024 Mental Plan

Self Language:

• “There is so much riding on this Marathon. Everything.”
• “Every sneaky motherfucker is doing it and taking care of their health. Don’t be left behind”
• “Sneaky motherfuckers who make more money than you are cutting out booze and running.”

• “Carpe Diem: I know you well. The unconscious mind. One pint or dram followed by another. One slice of pizza by another. The hole inside you, that desire for entropy pushing you deeper into the abyss. You want to fill this hole with wine, hefeweizen and pizza. You can go on for hours in this trance. “
  “It’s okay brother. I understand and don’t judge. This happens”
  “Here is a question: why not just stop that slice and that pint? Just for now? You can drink tomorrow.”
  “No, nothing has been ruined brother. You are fine. Remember Taleb’s Black Swan. This one night will not fuck you for ever. So no need to take it to the limit.”
  “It’s okay to stop now and sleep on it. Tomorrow you just carry on as if nothing happened.”
  “So, let’s go home, brother. Let’s sleep and continue our awesome journey tomorrow”

• “Back from a vacation or a binge? Its okay. Start today”

• “It is not worth compromising my own health and sobriety for other people’s insecurities and desires.”

• “This is a skill. And you are good at acquiring skills. Magic, music, AI, robotics, GTD, Seddit”

• “Your uncle died. Sick. Your dad had a second heart procedure and is in constant stress. Your mom is slowly dying. Is that what you want?”
  
• “Would your dad, a vegetarian, ever compromise on his diet? Don’t waver from your food”
• “Eat as much healthy food as you want. Just don’t drink”
• “The more you say no, the stronger your brain becomes. Its a muscle”
• “Extra food will go to the garbage. Or you will eat it and then fuck yourself up. Are you a garbage can?”
• “Do you want to let others control your success? Pleasing others is so important to you?”

• “Don’t ruin it. Don’t mess this up”
• “Is it really worth eating emotionally to counter your hate, resentment and stress? Weak bro”

• “That delicious pizza or bread. That amazing Heffeweizen or Cabernet Savignon. You want it, right? Is compromising your health and marathon worth this temporary indulgence?”

• “Look at those people richer than you, leading successful lives: Obama, Taleb, Pratt, Hemsworth, Hardy. Ramsay, Affleck and Arnold.”
  “Those silicon valley slimy motherfuckers too. No booze, and working out. Optimizing for health”

• “You have so much more to give to this world. Life is not over yet. You will quit your job and take BIG LEAPS. When that happens, I want you to be physically ready.”

Against the Food Man

• “America’s food is killing you. These corporations want you to eat their shitty garbage”
• “And you are letting this happen by being a fucking trashcan for that garbage”
• “And these thin motherfuckers — they lie about how much they eat. They eat very little!”
• “You cannot let the average of your intake be more than 1800″
• “Hunger is a temporary feeling. You are not starving”
