Dear all
Imagine that your friend comes to you for advice about their relationship. They are unsure whether to break up with their partner. You give them some wise advice, such as to consider the pros and cons of breaking up, to communicate their feelings to their partner, and to make a decision based on what is best for them.
A few weeks later, you find yourself in a similar situation. You are unsure whether to break up with your own partner. However, instead of following the same wise advice that you gave to your friend, you find yourself making excuses for your partner's behavior and overlooking red flags.
In psychology this is know as Soloman's Paradox.
Solomon's Paradox is a psychological phenomenon in which people tend to be wiser when solving other people's problems than their own. This is named after King Solomon, who was known for his wisdom in giving advice to others, but who made some poor decisions in his own life.
How to overcome it?
-Take a step back and look at the situation from an outside perspective.
-Get advice from others.
-Consider long term consequences.

**Three Quotes and Phrases I Liked**
๐When Alexander The Great was alive the world was not big enough to contain his ambition but while Alexander chafed at the confines of the world in life, in death, “a coffin was enough. -Juvenal
The courage to start.
The discipline to focus.
The confidence to figure it out.
The patience to know progress is not always visible.
The persistence to keep going, even on the bad days.
That's the formula.
๐"If Nike announced that they were opening a hotel, you’d have a pretty good guess about what it would be like.But if Hyatt announced that they were going to start making shoes, you would have no idea whatsoever what those shoes would be like.That’s because Nike owns a brand and Hyatt simply owns real estate." - Seth Godin
**Two Write Ups I Enjoyed and Liked**
๐The best indication of how long something might exist is how long it has already existed. If an idea or technology has survived for ten or twenty generations, there’s evidently something about it that’s resistant to change, obsolescence, and generation gaps. Something about it sustains itself even as everything around it comes and goes.
