Alysa Liu and doing it for YOU [The Zero Dot Podcast #22]

Hedgehog alerts in cars, Chip shortages that harken back to the late 1980's, and the Winter Olympics all take center stage in today's discussion all before diving into the main topic - Intrinsic vs Extrinsic Value-Accordant Action. Aka, what we do for the process vs what we do for the end result. Sam brings Olympic Gold Medalist Alyssa Liu to mind as he discusses what we can do to ensure our behaviors align with our base values and less so aligned with the end results. If we did more things because of the joy the process brought with less regard to how many likes we might get on Instagram or how many trophies we might be awarded, what kind of world might we live in? Would that be a world you'd like to see? If so, the steps in getting there aren't that hard, as Sam and John uncover.

Also, don't get hit by cars. That is bad for your health. But we aren't your doctor, you do you, I guess.
