Will you stay in the game?
Do less and obsess.
This month is about to end and you can use that to your advantage. Here's how:
To practice:
- Revisit your resolution list.
- Mark with a star what you might be willing to translate into another list.
- Grab a fresh piece of paper.
- Write down only what your snap judgment tells you it's worth the manual effort.
You'll end up with a shorter list; one that signals what motivates you the most. No motivation, no chance to succeed.
It doesn't matter if you haven't progress on your resolutions, yet. The point at this early stage of the game is to be clear on what you want. For that you need time.
Congrats for giving yourself time and for letting the initial effervescence of the year subside.
You're now ready to travel, but with less baggage.
Principles that help you move forward:
- "You got to go at the rate you can go" (via Improve Something Today)
- When in doubt cut it out
- Do I need to ride every wave?
Thanks for reading 🤟
