thank you Marco.. I came for the HRV data, I stay for the subversion of the dominant capitalist paradigm ;-)

think it's important for us all to push back on the narrative that competition is what drives progress. In fact it is co-operation and always has been..

Tamim Ansary wrote about life in Afghanistan before the Soviet invasion,

Before technology, in our hard, dry land, we lived on the edge. We didn’t have the luxury of considering each individual as a sovereign state and every social relationship as voluntary. We couldn’t think in terms of leveling the playing field and giving everyone an equal chance in the competition of all against all—a fundamental premise of democracy in a modern Western state. Living like that could have killed us.

Thanks Marco. Hai ragione. Idea and execution are different beasts, and you are nailing the tricksy one. I appreciate your apps so much they have helped me through many life adventures and stresses, whether I’m training or not. And your blog is so human and informative. And now I also know you share many world views with me. I like you even more. Continua. Hai trovato una bella strada.

Marco, this was a fascinating read. I’ve loved following your work and benefitted both personally and professionally from it. Being at the start of a journey building my own stress education business I sometimes struggle with the external pressure to do certain things in certain ways at times. But your words have been very comforting and a reminder to lean in to ‘my why’. Thanks for sharing. 💚

Keep going Marco, you’re an absolute inspiration from the day I met you, all those years ago in San Fran (I had been sucked into the capitalist VC machine as a naive first time founder, and have learnt since then).

The world we live in is beautiful in many ways. Today, at over 50 years old, I know that it doesn't matter what I already know, what I think, or what I believe. It's really only the actions that matter. It really matters what I do and who I am to those I am responsible for and love.

My fingers are crossed for all of you Marco, you make the world a better place today than it was yesterday.
