Hell yeah, Randy!!! So excited to hear that you’re doing the Terra.do course, I remember you mentioned you were going to explore that. I got excited and looked on their site to check it out. Saw the price, and went WELP. lol

But looking forward to hearing more of what you learn!

Also, “I always buy four or five pairs at a time because I’m afraid they’re going to quit making them one day.” made me laugh so hard. I used to be like that with jeans. When you find something that fits right and works, you gotta have backup.

"not working on solutions, but the work I am doing is probably contributing to the problem"

The conundrum, beautifully presented.

"...it’s a series about finding 'meaning in life, not the meaning of life.'" Thank you (and Latham) for sharing this — adding it to my list!

+1 for Bic (though I'm a gel pen fan). I fight "shiny object syndrome" often, but you can't beat the things that just work. I can try a thousand fancy teas, but the next morning, I'll always go back to plain ole Lipton.

Randy, thank you for the mention in this week's newsletter. Awakening from the Meaning Crisis has been profound for me. I'm excited to share more of what I learn as I continue going deep into it.

I'd love to hear what you're learning from Terra.do. I did a deep dive into climate science a few years ago as an investor, and I continue to have both concerns, hopes, and fears about the issue. I'd love to talk about it some time and see wheat you're learning and where your mind is going. Let me know if I can ever help or if you want to talk about it.

Sorry to hear about the surgery push-back. If something is hanging over my head I personally want to get it over with as soon I can, so I can empathize with the pain of that delay. Love the concept of looking for "meaning IN life, instead of meaning OF life." I appreciate your own and everyone's newsletters for this reason, there are often little gems such as this that land like a seed in my attention and start growing, even if I don't go down the rabbit hole of exploring the recommended links, series, books, etc. (Just not enough time.) So thanks for sharing that from J Vervaeke. I am on my last pair of 4 pairs of New Balance I bought about 12 years ago. It's the extra wide sizes that sold me on them years ago.
