Letter 122: On Choosing Your Addictions
In this week's letter, Zeneca reflects on a realization that emerged after stepping away from constant digital stimulation: perhaps the goal isn't to eliminate our obsessions, but to choose them wisely. Drawing inspiration from David Foster Wallace's famous This Is Water speech, he explores the idea that everyone ends up worshipping something whether it's money, status, entertainment, or healthier pursuits like reading and golf. Rather than chasing perfect balance, he argues that consciously replacing destructive addictions with constructive ones may be a more realistic path to a meaningful life.

He argues that tracking not just profits and losses, but also your thesis, emotions, decision quality, and the role of luck, helps reveal recurring mistakes, build discipline, and shift your focus from outcomes to process. Over time, regularly reviewing these journals leads to better decision-making and more consistent performance.
