False Dichotomies: Being Somebody Vs Doing Something, Adding Vs Subtracting & Gym Vs Outdoors
We set ourselves a lot of one or the other questions this week and yet the right answer is probably ..... both!?
In Episode #327 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: concepts from Ryan Holiday's book 'Ego Is The Enemy', a bunch of people who were secret gangstas, how our lives would have to change with a wife & kids, me spending my whole day handstanding/reading/studying/podcasting, why I'd need a special girl to adapt to my lifestyle, tackling problems by adding or subtracting, becoming outdoors people and how you can support us via Fountain & other P2.0 apps.
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
