In today’s episode we talk about productivity and the subconscious labels that I’ve (my ego) has put upon it. “If I work 70 hours per week, I will be successful (read I *deserve* to be successful)” or “If I wake up before everyone else and already get some work done, I am one step ahead of everyone (read I am *better* than everyone)” and so on.

Cigarettes deteriorate our...
