When you start to look at a problematic technology, so in your example, Twitter, you start to look at the way you use it and the line that's being crossed. And if you start to reflect, and like I'll invite listeners to even do it now, to think of a technology that you have a problematic relationship with and say, okay, what is the deeper, healthy emotional need that is driving this? Welcome to the One You Feed. Throughout time, great thinkers have recognized the importance of the thoughts we have. Quotes like, garbage in, garbage out, or you are what you think ring true.
And yet, for many of us, our thoughts don't strengthen or empower us. We tend toward negativity, self pity, jealousy, or fear. We see what we don't have instead of what we do. We think things that hold us back and dampen our spirit. But it's not just about thinking.
Our actions matter. It takes conscious, consistent, and creative effort to make a life worth living. This podcast is about how other people keep themselves moving in the right direction. How they feed their good wolf. Most days it feels like the two wolves in that old parable aren't just inside us anymore, they're also living in our phones.
