![]() ![]() Then there’s the quote by Wayne Gretzky, featured by Michael Scott in one of my favorite shows The Office “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take”. Hamilton had the slightest opportunity in sight, and even though he probably was going to fail he chose to act and take his shot, becoming one of the most influential historical figures in the United States. It was probably most inspired by my recent obsession with "Hamilton", and the song that goes “I am not throwing away my shot”. This topic is the summary of a few different quotes all wrapped into one simplified expression - Take your shot. So that’s it! Make a small decision, that you know is best for you, and watch it generate results that are much bigger than the effort it takes to make the decision. The subtle shift in language helps me identify more as a go-getter, and sacrificing one minute of sleep has much bigger effects on my psychology.Īnother idea - If you move your social media app icons to a new folder, with the intention that you’re doing it to be on social media less, then you have that decision in place to remind you throughout the day. Now, instead of being someone who wakes up at 6am, I can honestly say I’m someone who wakes up BEFORE 6am. But then the outcome is far greater than the investment. ![]() That sounds pretty reasonable doesn’t it? It’s basically imperceptible. What does that mean? Well, it means I’m waking up one minute earlier than I used to. It’s just about getting creative to identify these ideas so that you can leverage them for yourself, and accelerate your journey without much work.įor example, something I just realized and started doing last week is I started setting my alarm for 5:59 am instead of 6:00 am. Believe it or not, there are small things you can do that produce far bigger results. Personal development doesn’t have to always be an uphill battle. Regrets have a compounding nature to them, one thing leads to the next and leads to the next, but being mindful that you’re still making decisions about that thing today allows you to start correcting it. You could feel sorry for yourself and regretful for not making the most of that opportunity, or you could take the time to bridge that knowledge gap right now. Or, let’s say you didn’t study a topic as hard as you wish you did in college because it would be valuable for you now. ![]() ![]() You regret having not taken action, and that regret distracts you from seeing the opportunity to invest today, because it very well still could be the right decision. But in every moment we are making more decisions that generate results, and if we aren’t as present as we should be in those moments we’re more likely to do things incorrectly and do things we’ll later regret.įor example - And I don’t know the first thing about this but let’s say you almost bought Bitcoin 10 years ago. We let it hold more mental bandwidth than it’s worth and preoccupy us. What happens with regret is it consumes us. This goes for steps that you did or didn’t take, and the action or inaction that in hindsight was the wrong decision. To quickly define it, you feel regret when something happened that didn’t produce the result you wanted, but more particularly, you realize that you could have done something differently that would have influenced the result. It’s not necessarily about having regrets, or why they exist, but more a perspective around regrets that might be new to you. Overall, this is a quality unit, well built, and should last many years.This is a difficult topic to tackle, but let’s try. I know there is a strap assembly available to monitor pulse rate but I don't want to spend anymore money on this. I can get a reading using them but can't hold on to them for more than maybe 30 seconds because of the uncomfortable position their height puts me in. Lastly, the short handles for monitoring your pulse rate, that are in front of the user, are a bit too low for my 6'4†frame. I probably can get from local hardware store but haven't tried yet. Small metric screw missing for mounting convenience tray. Only issues I have is it taking way to long to connect the electronic wire connections with confusing wire colors (ve been an electronics tech for decades). This unit is well built and packaged very well for shipping. This unit looks like it will last for years. I looked at some cheaper brands but believe you get what you pay for. This one was recommended by family member who had purchased the TR4000i a few months earlier. ![]()
