Replying to @noahkagan
@noahkagan / Two interview questions worth asking:
“How did you use AI in your last job, and what results did you achieve?”
“How did your employer respond to those results?”
The second answer might tell you as much about the employer as the first tells you about the candidate.

One of the best 5 minute reads on the internet:

The couples lifemaxxing stack:
- have more fun & less stress
- be biased to action
- move together everyday
- have a cheat day weekly where you don’t count macros
- play golf with your wife
- sleep 7 hours & get up at 5 am (let her sleep in)
- social media is for making content and not bingemaxxing to pass the time
- skip date night for an activity

Regret is the enemy of happiness.
And not doing is a source of anxiety.
So being bias to action will make you less anxious and more happy.

Thanks @dankrenit and @denk_tweets!

"What is in the micro is in the macro."
What you do at the small level builds everything above it. The habits, the defaults, the choices you make without thinking. They shape your marriage, your health, and your life over time.
The question is simple: did you choose them, or were they handed to you?

Everybody wants to build a good life. But a good life changes when you are a couple.
Your life isn’t really yours anymore. It’s now ours.
It’s no longer “I don’t do cool stuff”, but we do cool stuff.
That’s why @jaylene and I operate the Sync&Thrive newsletter.
It’s just a quick read that helps make steering together easier.
Check it out. Our next issue drops tomorrow syncyourwellness.com

All of my high-agency friends have one thing in common:
They are great at protecting the routines they love.
Morning runs.
Lift days.
Weekend skiing.
Dirt bikes.
Whatever it is, they make time for it.
And I get why.
Those routines help them stay sharp.
But once you get married, the game changes.
Now it is not just about protecting your own routine.
It is about building a shared rhythm that keeps both people strong.
Can you really call yourself high-agency in a relationship if the two of you have no system for staying connected, healthy, and in sync?
I wrote more about that in today’s newsletter:

Curiosity is the unfair advantage that we all need. And fortunately, it’s something we can actually cultivate.
Today’s newsletter goes into it more.

Lack of time is lack of priorities. If I’m “busy,” it is because I’ve made choices that put me in that position, so I’ve forbidden myself to reply to “How are you?” with “Busy.” I have no right to complain. Instead, if I’m too busy, it’s a cue to reexamine my systems and rules.
Mandatory patterns for couples who want to stay connected:
1. Protect one evening on the calendar this month
2. Share one meal without distractions
3. Eat real food consistently
4. Learn one thing together
5. Take five minutes each week to notice what’s working
It starts with one small move. Protect your connection.
Resilient couples don't interpret challenges as failure.
They recognize them as transitions.
They don't avoid the friction; they lean into it, knowing that depth is built in these moments, not despite them.
So they choose to start with 5 minutes of intentional time together on a consistent basis.
They ask one another: "What's been on your mind lately?"
They listen attentively without trying to fix, advise, or redirect.
Depth doesn't require hours. It requires attention.

Supporting IRL relationships (especially couples and family) will become a top-tier societal priority, arguably the highest-leverage human need, especially in contrast to increasingly digital, mediated, or fragmented social interaction.

Most couples want better routines, more energy, and less decision fatigue.
But most health advice? It’s built for individuals—not partnerships.
Here’s what we’ve learned—and what we’re building.

The brain wires itself through repetition.
What you repeat, you reinforce.
Shifting from complaint to curiosity doesn't just change your mood in the moment. It resets your shared emotional circuitry. When you train your brains to look for solutions instead of problems, for growth edges instead of failures, you're literally building new neural pathways together. And those pathways determine how you experience everything: conflict, stress, connection, even joy.

I love the intro to @tferriss’ Tools of Titans which was written by @Schwarzenegger:
“So how can I ever claim to be self-made? To accept that mantle discounts every person and every piece of advice that got me here. And it gives the wrong impression — that you can do it alone.”
This statement has always resonated with me. Arnold gave so much credit to Joe Weider and to others.
Always be mindful of where you received support. All the names and faces of the people who helped you get to where you are today.
