From Sahil Bloom on Twitter. (Here's another one on The Most Powerful Paradoxes in Life)
Do hard things.
Life is hard—and when we embrace voluntary struggle, we’re better equipped for the involuntary struggle that inevitably comes.
- Wake up early
- Get cold
- Move fast
- Lift heavy
- Focus
- Be present
- Have difficult conversations
Simple playbook to live well.
It seems that's a good recipe. I've been thinking about what hard things that I'm doing that might be good indicators:
- running after work, especially when I don't want to
- biking to work, even when it's slightly inconvenient
- reaching out to parents regularly
This is a message similar to Greg Krech's Morita Therapy.... don't act based on feelings (b/c feelings come and go). Instead, act on principle.
