The Mirror, the Mind & the Mix

🤯 Factoid of the Week

Time feels fixed — but it's not.
Hang out near a black hole for a few hours, and by the time you're back on Earth, hundreds of years could’ve passed.

It’s called gravitational time dilation — and it reminds us:
"Now" isn’t the same everywhere.
Time, like perspective, is all about where you stand.

 

🧠 This Week’s Learning: Perspective Changes Everything

I was recently abroad and rented a car. Cruising down the motorway at 130 km/h, I glanced in the rearview mirror and saw a car sitting right on my tail. Like most people doing the speed limit, I felt instantly annoyed — why was this guy so close?

Later, I pulled off for a quick espresso (which, in Italy, you stand to drink unless you’re happy paying an extra euro to sit). As I parked, I noticed something strange: the rental car’s mirror made everything behind me look way closer than I was used to in my own car back home.

That’s when it hit me — it wasn’t the driver behind me that got me worked up. It was how I saw them. The problem was in the mirror, not the moment.

That little moment turned into a big reminder:
Your perspective shapes your emotions.

How you see a situation determines how you feel about it — and the good news is, you control your lens.
Whether someone made fun of your body or your dream, instead of spiraling, use it as fuel. Let it be a spark for action. Find the lesson. Look for the blessing. It's always there — sometimes hiding.

And if you can’t find it right now?
Tell yourself this:
“You do not realize now, but later you will understand.”

 

🏗️ JITY Update: Chasing Better

Behind the scenes, we’re still deep in the trial phase — testing different enzyme combinations to find the perfect mix for our chicken protein powder.

It’s a tedious, time-consuming process. But we’re choosing to see it like this:
Every failed trial is just one step closer to the formula that hits 10/10.
Right now, it’s all about stacking reps in the lab — because the right recipe is worth the grind.

👀 Curious what enzymes actually do?
Check out our latest Instagram reel for a quick breakdown.

While chicken protein powder is still the mission, we’ve been toying with an alternative in case we can’t crack a smooth-mixing formula:
A high-protein pot noodle — same convenience, but infused with our chicken protein for serious performance fuel in meal form.
