🍴 What makes us overeat -
- The "Protein Leverage Hypothesis" argues that protein determines how much you eat. If you eat enough protein, then you won't overeat. If you don't, your body will instinctively upregulate appetite and cause overeating. While I think this tells an important part of the story, I don't think it tells the whole story (whole story will be shared here in the next few weeks).

🏃♀️ What if I don't have natural ability -
- I consider the fact that I have no natural talents a blessing. Often times people with natural talent don't realize they are running a marathon. Because of this they get passed up by those with less ability after just a 100 meters into the race. The setback becomes your advantage.

🎯 What is your personal brand -
- Do you have a personal brand? Should you? I came across this article about building a personal brand as a moat, a competitive advantage for your career. And I think the general premise is smart – your primary focus should first-and-foremost be attaining valuable skills and creating value – not just amassing attention however you can. 15 seconds of
fame disappears pretty quick. Skills stick.

↔ What approach I'm taking -
- Last week I mentioned I created a VIP area for Saturday 7 members where I will be posting private videos, QandA's, giveaways, ebooks, etc. This week I posted a video update about my 2020 challenge and the very strange approach I'm using to write my 1st song. I'm pretty sure it's the most analytical approach to songwriting in history. My idea is to try and use the "left brain" to access the
"right brain." Well see how it works lol.

🧠 What quote I've been thinking about -
"I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence."
– Frederick Douglass

💲 What was predicted over 30 years ago -
- Over 30 years later this article, "Get Ready for the Phoenix," resurfaced. Published in the Economist in 1988, this "prediction" ranks near the top of the most unbelievable foresights I've read.

😂 What made the list -
- Here is the best (and worst) of the 2010s. This is a robust compilation of everything from the best movies, books, and songs to the hottest cars, gadgets, and games of the last decade. You could spend the next decade going through it all :)

As always, it's an absolute pleasure and an honor getting to spend some time with you, hope you have a great weekend!
