So ... what's your motivation for doing anything?In Episode #242 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: our demotivating and quite frankly lazy Halloween outfits, the book Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman, personal motivation for why we both workout so much, overcoming apathy and sleeping better, making sure you are not becoming a bad person, a shitty argument about action vs non action and why we refuse to spend the time to become amazing at marketing.As always, we hope you enjoy.
