One Daily Tale

My train of thoughts in the news section

Besides the site, I’m also writing a personal diary. Lately, as the site takes up a good amount of my time, I’ve been writing a lot about my thoughts on its development.

I think it might be interesting and relevant to share my thought process in the news section, as it provides more context on why and what content I’m adding to the site.

Today’s run was tough.

I listened to the David Goggins podcast from Andrew Huberman again while running.

I’m planning to add sections to each element regarding key principles like time, balance, and the brain. David Goggins, while representing someone who can rise from rock bottom, is an exception that reinforces the rule that balance should be the key. Andrew Huberman also explained the role of a part of the brain that seems to be involved in willpower.
I believe this will better connect the sections.
I also plan to add a section on our consumer society, similar to the one on the environment.

    Rebuilding Esperia was no easy task. The civilization of the Espers had gradually turned away from what truly mattered, and the simple values, though essential to the proper functioning of a society that was difficult to manage, were fading away. The Seven Shapes had understood this problem well and were doing everything they could to…

    Who has never told themselves that they would start adopting new habits tomorrow? And for whom has that tomorrow never actually arrived? These were the words that opened the day’s discussion about the importance of Time in the corridors of the Great Library of Esperia. The reconstruction of Esperia was progressing slowly but surely, following…

    One thing was certain. Even if the Seven Shapes, by writing One Daily Tale, tried to preach words of peace and harmony for all, they could not act in place of the billions of other Espers, all of whom had a role to play in this global system. Whether the richest technocrats or the poorest…

    Sometimes, the message conveyed by the Seven Shapes could hurt the feelings of some Espers, even making them feel guilty. Faya, the Shape of Willpower, was certainly the one who most infuriated the Espers who were still attached to their former way of life. Her words, it is true, could put people on the spot…

    As was so often the case, the Espers’ lack of self-awareness led them to neglect things that were nevertheless essential, and their own health was one of them. Many of them did not realise just how much they neglected their physical well-being, of course, but also their mental well-being, by making little effort to look…

    Rebuilding Esperia required rethinking society from a new perspective, sometimes at the risk of questioning certain principles that had become the new foundations of a declining civilisation. For decades, the advancement of technology through the use of magic had allowed the Espers to become increasingly individualistic. Under the banner of personal freedom, everyone acted more…

    Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, often reminded adult Espers who sometimes lacked empathy that, as responsible adults, they had a duty to set an example for the younger generations. She did not, of course, deny the personal circumstances that could make emotions stronger than reason. But for all the children of the world, adults now…

    Admitting the reality of things is not always easy. Society’s words, the education we receive and, consequently, our prejudices often turn our eyes away from a truth that can sometimes be difficult to accept. The civilisation of the Espers was no exception to this rule, but the renewal of their planet, finally understood as essential,…
