Blockchain/DLT:
Especially Ethereum from the value proposition point of view. Additionally, much of my excitement stem from riding the hype train over at coinmarketcap.com

Data analysis/Machine Learning:
I enjoy well done data analysis because the results can be so beautifully persuasive. Machine learning is just another awesome way of doing data analysis at immense scales.

Gaming/Gambling/Probability/Risk:
Games and optimization/risk . Finding the best strategy is a fun game to play — and playing for fun is great as well.

Psychedelics:
Psychedelics research as a medical treatment for different mental disorders is fascinating. COMPASS Pathways & Atai life sciences are two good examples among many.

Practical philosophy:
Philosophy that relates to living.

Podcasts & discussion
Fun way to get into flow states.

New technologies/ideas
New things usually are new gardens with lots of low hanging fruit. I enjoy being where it is not so crowded, i.e. why be in the gardens we’ve picked dry already.

Yoga/meditation/sports/whatever to reach that calm state
Constantly learning to press my own buttons, what has an effect on my state of mind.

Psychology/Neuroscience

Investing

Love
Probably the best thing so far

Lean/Iterative way of being
Learning by doing — and having a low threshold to do stuff.
