From a17ef903b1948290a86f544f7b59b8700483a787 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jay Goldman Date: Sun, 17 Jul 2022 23:04:15 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Update wisdom.md I think the point about switching to having two of something should be "If you recently had one-thousand dollars, but are now up to two?" rather than "If you recently had one-thousand dollars, but are now down to two?". Unless you mean you had one-thousand dollars and now have two dollars. It's confusing given the previous example of having one lover and going up to two. --- wisdom.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/wisdom.md b/wisdom.md index 0c4e145..a9adc4c 100644 --- a/wisdom.md +++ b/wisdom.md @@ -372,7 +372,7 @@ Some introductory thoughts on the wisdom. ---- -- Whenever you switch to having two of something, change is happening, and you need to be aware of that.

"Two" often means shit is on the precipice of getting extremely weird. - Like it or not, you're always practicing *something*. Put another way, whichever muscle you exercise the most can't help but strengthen. Often to the detriment of others. - Related: okay, that was mostly an analogy. What I'm saying is that you will become whatever you frequently do, so be picky about frequently doing only the things that help aid whatever it is you *want* to become.
