To keep my creative muscles in shape, I write 10 bad ideas every day. Here’s today’s list: #1. Stress weakens your immune system. A lesson from Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman. #2. Use the XYZ approach when discussing with your partner or at work. #3. Reading regulates your nervous system. #4. To remember what you read, ask “What am I trying to achieve?” #5. Tsundoku is the Japanese word for a pile of unread books. #6. In a book date, you take your date to a bookstore, discuss about the books you both have read, then each one buys a book the other person will like. #7. Ban the word Discover from your copy. #8. Burnout isn’t the same as boreout. The first is from overwork and the last one from underwork. Technically, I didn’t burned out, but bored out. #9. “Your perfect life won’t be perfect.” #10. “When you learn, you earn.” A line from Skip The Line I missed the first time I read it.
