Man to man:
Normalize silence. Train without music. Eat without using your phone. Sit in your room with your thoughts. As a man who wants to go far in life, learn to be bored, silent, and alone.
Then turn up !
Discussion
There are times to do both, positions that disregard balance in life bother me. When I see notes that advocate some "extreme" position relative to the majority of people often make things worse in my experience. There is an awful lot of implicit balance being ignored
> learn to be bored
Only when necessary, not the solution for those already bored and need a purpose (thus confirming their biases)
> silent
Sometimes you must speak to communicate clearly with others, knowing when is the key
> alone
Again, when necessary but one cannot live a fulfilling life alone, you need family and friends (disregarding loneliness)
