🏋🏻‍♂️ The story of student who enjoyed working out

👨🏻‍🎓 Ronan Byrne, an electrical engineering student in Dublin, Ireland, enjoyed watching the Netflix, but he also knew that he should exercise more often than he did. Putting his engineering skills to use, Byrne hacked his stationary bike and connected it to his laptop and television.

👨🏻‍💻 Then, he created a computer program that would allow Netflix to run only if he was cycling at a certain speed. If he slowed down for too long, whatever show he was watching would pause until he started pedaling again.

🧠 In Byrne's case, he bundled watching Netflix (the thing he wanted to do) with riding his stationary bike (the thing he needed to do).

🪨 TELLING THE STORY OF STOICISM

A few years ago, when my daughter Poppy was four, she began asking me
to tell her stories. I didn’t know any children’s stories, so I told her what
came to mind: Greek myths, stories about heroes and philosophers.

One of her favorites was about the Greek general Xenophon. Late one night, as a young man, he was walking through an alleyway between two buildings
near the Athenian marketplace.
Suddenly a mysterious stranger, hidden in the shadows, blocked his path with a wooden staff. A voice inquired from the darkness, “Do you know where someone should go if he wants to buy goods?” Xenophon replied that they were right beside the agora, the finest marketplace in the world. There you could buy any goods your heart desired: jewelry, food, clothing, and so on. The stranger paused for a moment before asking another question: “Where, then, should one go in order to learn how to become a good person?” Xenophon was dumbstruck.

He had no idea how to answer. The mysterious figure then lowered his staff, stepped out of the shadows, and introduced himself as Socrates. Socrates said that they should both try to discover how someone could become a good person, because that’s surely more important than knowing where to buy all sorts of goods. So Xenophon went with Socrates and became one of his closest friends and followers.
