🗓️ Summary of Today’s Show in 50 Words or Less: Summarized by ChatGPT 🗓️

I went to the eye doctor for a contact lens fitting and struggled for 20 minutes to put one in. The person helping me was unhelpful, but the doctor was great. At checkout, I experienced firsthand how price anchoring works, making a lower price feel like a bargain. This reinforced that true learning only comes from firsthand experience. I’m also publicly committing to restarting Blade tomorrow. I discussed my approach to learning, vocabulary expansion, and deep thinking through books like The Daily Stoic and The Obstacle is the Way.

Notable Quotes From This Episode:

"You can be taught anything, but to learn it, to understand it, you have to do it."
