Hello Misha. Thanks for your ideas again. I read Walden one year ago, and it's great. I am more into people like Diogene, Jean-Jacques Rousseau or Thoreau than people like Alexander the Great or Trump. Get out of my sun... I did not receive your newsletter for a while, by the way. I hope you are doing well. You used to live in Japan, actually my wife is japanese and I went there eight times. See you.

Haha yes! Trump and Thoreau are quite different. It’s the difference between those that are looking inward for happiness vs. those who are looking outward/externally for satisfaction and happiness. Ditto for Putin.

And thanks for reading! I just started up the newsletter again and will be writing weekly. Less about productivity and more around emotions. FYI I’m actually back living in Tokyo, so drop me a message next time you’re around.
