So interesting to think about the different various comfort zones there because sometimes when you realize that other people you know your friends or family members genuinely don't want that you kind of understand them better. So Viennan Gautiva a coffee or a mata drinker? I'm just here to enjoy that's being a negativa. "I love this mental model I know me too it's like really refreshing to me"
Welcome to another Friday Philosophy episode where we consider a different mental model, investigate our favorite frameworks, and muse on the creative habits and rituals of people we admire.
Today we’re digging into an esoteric philosophy called, Via Negativa.
We'll be looking at this framework and sharing how we use it to improve our relationship with time, how we discern our highest priorities, and how to avoid burn out.
Key take aways:
- How to use the theory of Via Negativa to abate burn out, overwhelm, and discern our most pressing priorities
- The power of subtracting vs. adding into several areas of our lives when thinking about our future visions
- How to conserve your energy by asking better questions like, “what's blocking my current perspective that I might be able to subtract?”
- How this mental model can help reduce “grasping energy”
