Episode 06: 7 Life Lessons I Wish I Knew Sooner

About the Episode

For those of you who aren’t aware, I’m an old man. And though my jokes haven’t improved with age, I’ve learned a thing or two about life along the way.

As I approach the big four-oh, I look back at four decades of life lessons and pick out seven I wish I knew sooner. I’m sharing them with you in this episode so you don’t have to live through as many clusterfucks as I did to get to a place where your life’s no longer a shitshow.

Some of these lessons you may already know, some may surprise you. But they’re all guaranteed to help you live a better life. I learned them too late, but you don’t have to repeat my mistakes.

So what are you waiting for?

A better life means better relationships.

The more we sacrifice for something, the more significant it feels.

Nobody fucking cares what you’re doing. You can do the dumbest shit and people will forget five seconds later.
