What is an optimal way to live life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Create the optimal conditions for your own personal thriving in life.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What does this look like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This depends on you and your life goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For myself, my life goal is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Become the greatest blogger of all-time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Also, I delight in being the greatest photography blogger of all time (maintenance).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Also, in order to create the optimal conditions for your personal thriving, decide what you DON’T<\/em> care about, and what superfluous goals you desire to abandon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      For example, I don’t really care for money-accumulation for the sake of it. Also, I don’t care for social media numbers, or numbers in general. All I care for is to maximize myself — to impress myself. To fulfill my own personal curiosity: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
