GO SLOW

Things I don’t want to do:

Get up at 5 am.
Spend 5 minutes in 50-degree water.
Hustle 50+ hours a week.
Time block my calendar to squeeze every second of productivity out of my day.
Drink green juice.
75 hard.

Speaking of hard, here’s how I do hard stuff.

A little at a time.
I iterate.
I take what I did and try to make it a little better as I go.

For example, I’ve been working on the book you’re reading for 6 months.

Each chapter is a page or so.

I write a chapter a day. Sometimes more. Sometimes less.

If I miss a day, that’s okay.
I begin again the next day.
I’m enjoying the process of writing it.

Making progress is satisfying.
I prefer doing (writing) to achieving (finishing).
That’s why I keep adding chapters.
This book will never be done :-)

Go slow.
Don’t rush.
Be kind to yourself.
