<aside> 🐘 A collection of the 3 Pieces of Content I've found the most valuable this week on the internet, with some reflections, key lessons, and why they can add value to our lives. Plus, one thought-provoking quote. I do this because I believe in intentionally choosing the content we consume, especially on the internet, in an era in which the amount of content we expose ourselves to can consume us, if we are not mindful enough.

"the punch line of life is that you cannot become happy; you can only be happy."

A conversation between Matt D'Avella and Sam Harris, this is a very relaxing, eye opening and thought-provoking video, in which the role of meditation in life is explored at a deep level of reasoning.

As Sam Harris often advocates, meditation is a constant state of experiencing life, and not merely a dedicated amount of time spent in silence following the breath, although the latter is considered formal practice.
