COT: “Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be just like him.” Proverbs‬ ‭26‬:‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Dealing with outlandish comments often solicit an argument that really doesn’t get to the meat of the issue. Be willing to step back and seek to understand the root cause and source of not what is being said, but of the person’s wound or perspective that is driving this comment/post. Failure to do so often only builds up defenses.

COT:
YHC was away last week in mountains and took two days for a digital fast. The first day felt like withdraw with the second day then providing much improved mental clarity with the awareness that things that seemed important while dialed in to digital were actually not that important and provided space to focus on truly the important things. Processed through prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.

Recognition that digital addiction was yet another way to self medicate and that YHC’s brain was rewired..not in a positive way. Good news is that it can be rebooted with silence/solitude and intentionality.

Take a moment to disconnect completely.

COT

Arthur brooks, Harvard B-school professor

The average professional today has more than their grandparents ever dreamed of. And yet… they’re less happy.

You don’t get happier by having more.
You get happier by wanting less.

Choosing better instead of chasing more.

Investing in meaning, not just momentum.

Serving others instead of endlessly fixing yourself

Ecclesiastes 6:9:
“It is better to be happy with what you have than to always want more and more. Always wanting more and more is useless. It is like trying to catch the wind.”
