Agree this is very inspiring - I suspect many folks out there might respond to a simple approach like this. I have fallen off several wagons in this regard, Convict Conditioning and the Busy Dad Routine most recently - generally because, although fun and encouraging initially, they are just too much faff from an administrative perspective!
I am up for this! One question: do you accrue push-ups during the day in a 'greasing the groove' type approach and then stick in the total at end of day? Or more of a session? Just curious what was successful for you...
This is the most accurate non-fiction ("best history book") I have ever read, and I consume 70+ books annually. It's only a few dozen pages long (see link above for PDF).
By my grandfather's reading (~80yo), he began adulting during the chapter titled "Age of the Welfare State" (60s/70s/nam/80s) — but us Millenials I believe are truly in the last chapter: "Age of Decadence" .
As the old saying goes: It may not be the end of times... but intermission was A. LONG. TIME. AGO...
Where else might we find narcissistic, man-children elevated to dangerous levels of authority?!? (most likely that was your point)
I saw a fascinating documentary addressing the fact that the 3 primary leaders of the belligerents in WWI were competitive cousins - amazing that Nicky, George and Little Willi all knew one another as children! And yes, the analysis was that Wilhelm felt excluded and was never very mature - sorry I don't remember the documentary title but there is a summary of the facts here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/britain_wwone/cousins_...
I agree with most of this analysis - but a problem with your last paragraph is that many of the public are not/do not care to be sufficiently informed and therefore do not believe it. They think net zero/solar/anti-fracking is some sort of leftist plot.
