Allan Nation, one of my first mentors says, "One thing I have learned is that most people only take advice that agrees with what they have already decided to do."And that in a nutshell is the root of half of all our life's regrets.So let's continue yesterday's conversation about how to avoid making big mistakes.In today's book-of-the-day,"Influence", Cialdini talks about the certainty bias. Cialdini says, "There is no question about it. The drive to be (and look) consistent constitutes a highly potent weapon of social influence, often causing us to act in ways that are clearly contrary to our own best interests.”>>Click here to read yesterday's article to catch upHe is talking about our tendency to not change our mind.Mental "inertia..." Confusing Me With Facts...Like the saying goes, "Don't bother me with the facts, I've already made up my mind."Yesterday you read about how to make war with a multitude of counselors and assemble your cabinet of advisors.That is the start. The next issue is this 'bug' in our

What you really want to do is never make any big mistakes.Little experimental tests that fail? Yes, those can actually be helpful.But avoid catastrophic mistakes...Like the billionaire Warren Buffett says, "An investor needs to do very few things right as long as he or she avoids big mistakes."That is true about all areas of the good life: health, wealth, love, and happiness. Getting The Lost Years BackImagine if you could have back the years you wasted on a bad marriage or dating the wrong person. Or recover the years of your life you lost to being overweight and unhealthy. Or get back the money you lost on bad investments or the pursuit of the wrong career.Or the happiness lost spending time around people who ended up betraying you in the end.The greatest wish of every human is to be able to have their wasted years back.But time moves forward. I just finished "Theory of Everything" by the great Stephen Hawking.He says he was wrong.He used to think that at the end of the universe, about ten thousand million

There is one thing sure to kill your hopes and dreams.It's the "mismatch."And there is one thing sure to bring you the "good life: Health, Wealth, Love, Happiness."It's avoiding the "mismatch."What do I mean by this concept of the mismatch?I was reading for today's Book-Of-The-Day, Daniel Lieberman's "The Story Of The Human Body."The book covers much of this mismatch and explains how the hardwiring of your brain is adapted to be really good at living in a small village of about 150 people. A village where you go to bed around 730 pm, sleep 8 hours, eat tons of vegetables and a little meat, and where you fall in love and have kids with an old friend you have known since childhood.In that village you have 2 or 3 career choices but not more than that. It's a village where you are encouraged to save and not spend everything you earn.But guess what? That world's long gone.The world that the hard wiring of you brain works best with has been replaced with a modern, crazy world. I live in Hollywood. I'm looking out m

What you really want to do is master your social life.To me, over the years, life will come at you in three phases:Phase 1. Achieving PhysicalHealthThe hardest part of life is being born. Its' when you are most susceptible to disease and the environment.According to one study, "More than a third of babies die on their first day of life -- making the birth day the riskiest day for newborns and mothers almost everywhere."If you are reading this as an adult you have already won the genetic lottery. Phase 2. Acquiring ResourcesThis is not just making money. But in the modern world you primarily will use some form of paper money to exchange resources with people.You must be able to accumulate enough resources for yourself and your family or you are on a quick path to a short, unhappy life. You don't need billions, but you have to at least get to some level of financial independence.As the Nobel prize winning author Daniel Kahneman says, you need to make at least $75,000 per year in order to achieve the happiness '

Music makes people happy. But is everything that makes you happy good for you? Music makes people happy. No one can argue that. But is everything that makes you happy good for you? Probably not. Scott Weiland, the lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver, was at my house not too long ago.  He is famous for saying he LOVES heroin.Scott explained, "(Heroin) took me to where I'd always dreamed of going. I can't name the place, but I can say that I was undisturbed and unafraid, a free-floating man in a space without demons and doubts."The Grand Theory Of Everything says that the ultimate step in your life must be to achieve happiness.  Heroin Happiness...But it can't be any old type of happiness. It can't be "Heroin Happiness" like Scott Weiland found. That type of happiness is one step forward, 10 steps back. You want quality happiness.In the modern world you can't go far without hearing music. 13 Years Of Music...One study says that you will listen to about 13 years' worth of music before you die.
