My name is Hasi and I work in tech. Most of the time I'm brought into meetings as a window dressing - so I don't get to talk as much as I'd like. This is my outlet for my 2 cents on topics such as life, money, society and self-development plus whatever else lies up in my head. Hopefully this doesn't get me cancelled in the process. Enjoy!

Irritation As A Reframing Opportunity
As of recent I've been inundated in my part of the internet of people being irritated (or triggered in gen z speak) expressing deep irritation e.g. with tax reform. First it is easy for me to notice irritation in others as opposed to myself (self reflection is hard) and secondly, regardless of whether I was in (partial) agreement or not with their viewpoints, I found this to be rather ugly. Having recently read the 'Art of Happiness' by the Dalai Lama I reflect in this episode on situations where I have been the one who has been irritated and take this as an opportunity to reframe these irritations.

Impermanence As A Tool For Happiness
Being aware of impermanence is often cause for misery but in this episode I reflect on why it should be a reminder to be grateful for the good whilst it lasts and hopeful when times are tough. Want to listen to more episodes?

The Loneliness Epidemic: Why You Need To Be Proactive, More Forgiving And Apply Game Theory To Beat It
As we've gotten older I've noticed that in many of the social networks of my friends (male in particular) have become a shell of what they used to be. Whilst this could be a quality over quantity scenario, and this is arguably part of the reason, I see something else far more destructive is that many are falling into what is described as 'The Loneliness Epidemic'. In a world where we feel connected by the mirage created through the digital world many of us often feel less connected than ever because digital connection is a poor substitute for connection another human in real life. In this episode I reflect on a number of social gatherings I've recently hosted, my observations of social dynamics over the last 10-15 years and how I think we ought to apply game theory to our networks rather than the default tit-for-tat strategy so many of us fall into.

Take The Photo Now
There are moments from my younger years that I would give anything to see again - not because they were extraordinary (ok some were), but because no one took a photo... Want to listen to more episodes?

50 days into 75 Hard
In this episode I share a **Day 50 progress update on my 75 Hard journey**.
For those unfamiliar, **75 Hard** is a mental toughness program created by Andy Frisella. The challenge requires strict daily habits including two workouts per day, following a diet, reading personal development books, drinking a gallon of water, and taking a progress photo every day for 75 days.
Now that I’ve reached **Day 50**, I reflect on:
• The hardest parts of the challenge so far
• Unexpected mental and physical changes
• Lessons about discipline and consistency
• Where I've struggled and nearly failed
This episode is a **raw mid-challenge reflection** on building discipline, staying accountable, and pushing through when motivation fades.
If you're considering trying **75 Hard**, or you're currently doing it yourself, this update might help you understand what the experience is really like halfway through. Want to listen to more episodes?

It's Easy To Blame The World... But What About You?
In this episode I recount how reading a verse from the Dhammapada made me rethink a situation and push me to take more accountability for my own actions, inactions and miscommunications.
"The fault of others is easily perceived, but that of oneself is difficult to perceive; a man winnows his neighbour's faults like chaff, but his own fault he hides, as a cheat hides the bad die from the gambler." Chapter 18 (Impurity) Verse 252 - The Dhammapada as translated by Muller (1881) Want to listen to more episodes?
