A few thoughts on deep thinking…
I’ve always loved words that inspire and make me think.
After my girlfriend was killed in a car accident, I began journaling and collecting quotes.
I was searching for answers. I felt like reading thoughts by Plato and Einstein was helping me.
I came across more modern writers, thinkers, and writers, such as Leo Babauta (Shene Parrish), Tim Ferriss, Tim Ferriss, Naval Ravikant, and Tim Ferriss.
Their words gave me some direction and guidance in dealing with my problems and making better decisions.
Summa sum:
I have noticed a huge positive impact on my life, my mental health, and my mood by writing down quotes, journaling and reflecting.
I still practice today and I can’t imagine my life without those anchors.
