gym and library

live your life at Last Lecture Series: How to Live your Life at Full Power — Graham Weaver

The voice of fear will lead you to a life that’s too small

  • face your fears (take the nail out of your head)
  • follow your energy
  • go all in

you don't know what your future self wants

when we make promises to someone, i.e. when we promise to love someone till death do us part, we are making promises that a stranger is going to have to keep. our future selves might not share the our views, our perspectives, our hopes.


  • i foresee myself spending a lot of time at the gym and library
    • spending an hour at the gym is a good investment into my future self, even though it might steal energy away now, it will increase it in the long run, and provide mental benefits
    • the library is a like a free bookstore, it's so fun to borrow any book I want. I'm going to have a mini library at home.
