Yo, today's QOD is, you're not just privileged.

You're incredibly privileged.

Here we go. Welcome back to the quote of the day show. I'm your host, Sean Croxton,

and Sean Croxton.com. We got Dr. Sricumar Rao wrapping up the week.

And today, he's going to share an exercise that he recommends to his patients who struggle with insomnia.

And he says it has a 100% success rate.

Dr. Rao's coming up.

How many of you here have a problem going to sleep?

Anybody? Raise your hands if you can. Well, I'm going to share with you an exercise which has a 100% record of solving this particular problem. I don't mean 80, I don't mean 90, I mean really 100%.

Here's what you do.

All of us spend a disproportionate amount

of our emotional energy on the two, three, or four things that are wrong in our lives.

More precisely, we spend a disproportionate amount of emotional energy on the two, three, or four

things that we have arbitrarily decided are bad in our life.

And we totally ignore the 40, 50, 60, 200 things which are pretty done good about our lives.

Think about it. Every single person in this room is incredibly extraordinarily privileged.

Think about it, seriously. Do any of you have to think about whether you're going to have lunch today?

Do you have to think about, do I have a bed to sleep in?

Do I have a roof over my head?

Can I go from place A to place B with reasonable certainty that I'm not going to get blown up?

You do recognize that every single one of the things that I have mentioned is a big deal in many parts of the world right now, right?

So you're not just privileged.
