I have a very very simple proposition: that is, cars are bad. Anything sitting or sedentary is bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What do we do instead? Stan, walk, be mobile etc. Any sort of lifestyle which promotes walking standing and your legs is good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, my new fitness philosophy and approach:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why? I think to be human is to walk. Yet, it seems that we are all making the same foolish optimization of trying to walk as little as humanly possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, I think the modern day trend is that we are all trying to turn ourselves into the fat people in Wally, who just sit in their hover chairs, drink sugary or fake sugary beverages, and don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t need to walk. And as a consequence, what happens? People end up becoming diseased in the mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So the very very basic question is this; how can we actually integrate more walking into our lives?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moving forward, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m no longer going to be practical, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m just going to be more direct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, your profession. Optimize your profession which allows maximum walking. No office work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re going to some sort of tech work, figure out creative ways that you could do it when you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re out walking around, on your iPad Pro, iPhone, iPhone Pro etc. Anything in which you are glued to a keyboard and a monitor is bad. Even a standing desk is bad. Even a walking treadmill desk is bad; the best is to be out, outside in the elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think living kind of close to a vibrant downtown area is good because there are lots of interesting things to look at and witness and new and photograph. I love this because you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re able to kill 10 von Stone; walk around which is good for your health and brain, make photos which is good for your artwork and soul, see fun interesting people etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you live in Southern California, Los Angeles, I recommend Culver City, close to the downtown Culver City steps. There are so many great developments here, it is like an infinite urban playground, maximally pedestrian friendly, literally the best place I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been in California, Southern California for walking. In fact, I find living in Culver City 1 billion times than even living in SF!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want Seneca to be one of those weird hippie kids, but I thought I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been having more recently is perhaps the standardized K2 12 education is bad. Why? Isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t it possible to have some sort of education in which you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not sedentary, and which you could just be walking around, outdoors etc, like being able to run outdoors and learn?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And better yet, what is the point of education anyways? Certainly there are basic things like your kidneys to do such as reading writing, basic arithmetic etc. But beyond this, is it really that important?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is my number one passion in life? The light! Let us also not forget that photography literally means \u00e2\u20ac\u0153painting with light.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
