In this bitesize moment pulled from the Laura Dowling Experience back catalogue, preventive cardiologist Dr Paddy Barrett argues that most people chase health without ever defining it — like a blindfolded archer aiming at a target they can't see.
He lays out three things actually worth optimising, and tells the story of walking away from the peak of his career when he realised he'd climbed the wrong mountain.
🔑Key Points
• Why \"I want to be healthy\" means nothing without a target
• The blindfolded archer, and aiming at something you can actually see
• Three things worth optimising: how long you live, the quality of those years, and how you spend your time
• Why it's never too late to climb back down and start again
