Welcome to the Smarter.Blog Newsletter, a newsletter for improving how we think and act. A useful and interesting mental model to have about your mind is to think of it as a garden where you spend your entire life in. You have control (mostly) over what grows in the garden and how your garden is laid out. Are you letting weeds to get hold of it, or are you encouraging beautiful flowers to bloom and trees to bear fruit? Is the garden growing haphazardly, or are you putting in effort to see to it that everything is organized well. Are you watering your garden regularly, and not throwing in all kinds of food for your plants and trees, but only the best? Are you pruning regularly and throwing away what you don’t need to make space for what you need? You reap what you sow.
