Quick quiz 👇

1/o

I've been using this mindset for a while now.

I just focus on what I can control—my effort.

If I give it my all and failed, I can still feel good knowing I did my best.

The best part? Failures don’t hit as hard, so I can bounce back with the same energy and motivation.

You can’t control the outcome, but you can always control the effort you put in 🤔

2/o

I’ve been hearing more and more about scientific fraud, especially in the health industry, and it’s honestly heartbreaking.

Just recently, I came across a story about a cardiologist who faked study data, claiming better outcomes for patients given beta blockers before heart surgery.

Europe updated their guidelines based on that research.

But it turns out, beta blockers actually increased the risk of death by 27%.

It’s estimated that 800,000 people lost their lives because of this 😢

3/o

I was a vegetarian for 8 years due to ethical concerns, but the longer I ate that way, the worse I felt, even though I ate clean and supplemented with things like B12, zinc, and iron.

It was tough to go back to eating animal-based foods, but ever since I did, I’ve felt so much healthier and more energized 🔋

4/o

I’ve always wondered why people don’t worry about sitting in a car but freak out about flying.

I think it’s because news can’t cover every fatal car accident—there are just too many—but they always cover plane crashes since they’re so rare.

But seriously, if you want to stay safe, never drive a motorcycle! 🏍️

5/o

We often assume that successful people knew exactly what they were doing from the start, but we rarely see the whole picture—the failures and setbacks they went through before figuring it out.

Like Edison said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

Success is usually just persistence in disguise.
