    I reflect on the importance of reading and how it shapes our knowledge, freedom, and critical thinking. In a world filled with distractions, many people are reading less than ever before, which limits their ability to grow and make informed decisions. I discuss the value of classic literature, the role of reading in personal development, and the need to resist mindless entertainment. I also share a story about a young boy reading a book instead of using a screen, highlighting the hope for future generations. If we want to be truly free and independent thinkers, we must make reading a priority.

  • Episode 82: We have been freed from chattel slavery a very long time ago. People, however, are still not free. Many are wage slaves. But, this is a personal choice. With effort, you can be free -- a hero, not a victim.

    In this episode, I explore the history of slavery and how, despite its abolition, many people still live in a form of self-imposed servitude—wage slavery.

Ultimately, I emphasize personal responsibility, the importance of critical thinking, and the power of small acts of kindness in transforming both our own lives and the lives of others.

  • Episode 80: What if you could "throw it all away" and start your life anew? The ideal answer is I would not have to change anything because I am already doing what I love. But this is seldom the case.

    If you won the lottery tomorrow, would your life truly change? In this episode, I explore why so many lottery winners end up back where they started and why real transformation comes from within. True happiness and success require self-development, not just external wealth. I share insights from philosophy, Stoicism, and personal growth—reminding you that if you want to change your life, you must first change yourself. Are you already doing what you love? If not, now is the time to take action. Critical thinking is key. Take care, and see you next time!

  • Episode 79: We are truly bombarded with negativity on an ongoing basis. This is, however, not an honest depiction of life. The average human being experiences a safe and good life. This unfortunately can easily be colored by the media induced dystopia that we are subjected to. We must look for the positive and the joyful in our daily lives.

    Negativity surrounds us daily, but I refuse to let it define my life. I share a personal story of unexpected recognition and remind myself—and you—that joy and success are always within reach. The world's constant stream of bad news is often misleading, and true fulfillment comes from focusing on our wins, setting goals, and pushing forward. By choosing critical thinking and optimism, I shape my own path and embrace the good in life. Let’s push on to the very end.
