E9: How To Unplug From The Matrix, Curate Your Information Diet, And Master The 9th Rule of Fight Club


Listen Later

In this episode, I discuss curating your information diet, active vs passive consumption, and unplugging from the matrix. I go into some strategies for cleaning up our social media diet, tips and tricks that have drastically altered my day-to-day. I think this is the most utilitarian podcast I have recorded to date, and the tips I list can help people of all walks of life. I think this stuff is an absolute game changer for anyone who wants the most out of themselves and of life.


We live in an increasingly information driven world. The internet has democratized the spread of information, and changed how humankind interacts in many ways for the better. However, most people do not take time to look at the 'pantry' of content that they consume, and as a result are passive consumers of what is being fed to them by 'the powers that be'. Earl Nightingale said that 'You become what you think about.' I believe this is true, and if we don't take stock of what we put into our minds, the old adage comes true: 'garbage in garbage out.' I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic, it's one that I feel strongly about.
