- "You have to work hard to discover how to work smart. You won't know the best solutions until you've made nearly all the mistakes."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-26-2024
- "I have learned that whenever I think "I don't have enough time to do that" what I usually mean is "I don't have enough energy" or "I am not actually interested in doing this."
What I need to do a better job of is not managing my time, but rather caring for myself and identifying my true interests. When I am well rested and working on something I am genuinely excited about, finding time is rarely a problem."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-11-2024
- As we start the new year, a reminder from Atomic Habits:
"New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results."
- "You will love whatever you pour your heart into. Passion follows commitment."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-28-2023
- "Curiosity can empower you or impede you.
Being curious and focused is a powerful combination. I define this combination as unleashing your curiosity within the domain of a particular task: asking questions about how things work, exploring different lines of attack for solving the problem, reading ideas from outside domains while always looking for ways to transfer the knowledge back to your main task, and so on. Even though you're exploring widely, you're generally moving the ball forward on the main thing. You start something and you keep searching until you find an effective way to finish it.
Meanwhile, when your curiosity sends you off in a dozen different directions and fractures your attention, then it can prevent you from focusing on one thing long enough to see it through to completion. Curious, but unfocused. You're jumping from one topic to the next, they aren't necessarily related, your efforts don't accumulate, you're simply exploring. You start many things and finish few.
How is your curiosity being directed? Is it rocket fuel or a roadblock?"
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-28-2023
- "The information you consume each day is the soil from which your future thoughts are grown."
- "Many of the best things in life grow along the way.
Start hanging out with someone and love grows along the way.
Start exercising and motivation grows along the way.
Start writing and inspiration grows along the way.
Start now and let the feeling follow."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-21-2023
- "Of all the ways you could be spending your precious time and attention, it is very unlikely that you are currently spending it in the optimal way. The only path I know for figuring out a better way to spend your life is to sit and think. You simply have to carve out some time to think carefully about what you're doing, why you're doing it, and what you're really trying to achieve. Nobody stumbles into a well lived life. It has to be cultivated. Reflection and review are critical."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-21-2023
- "It's easier to optimize a modest start than to begin with a perfect start. Starting is the hard part, so start small and get in the mix. You'll learn a lot and you'll realize you don't need to have it all figured out to begin."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-14-2023
- "Don't spend too much time around someone whose primary way of engaging with life is as a martyr. When suffering becomes your identity, you only see the hard parts of life."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-14-2023
- "Pay attention to how readily people talk themselves out of things—and be wary of adopting the same narrative. People will often try to convince you their limiting beliefs should become your own. They do not. Find your own ceiling."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-25-2024
- "Some lessons have to be experienced to be learned."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-31-2023
- "A valuable skill in life is to be larger than the situation.
When you're feeling stressed or rattled, the situation is consuming you. It feels bigger and more important than it needs to be. This is when your emotions are likely to get the best of you.
But when you are larger than the situation, you can mentally "step outside and above it." Yes, there are problems to be solved. Yes, you need to take action. But the chaos is happening externally and you are still in the driver's seat internally. You're in control of the moment, the moment is not in control of you."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-31-2023
- "Forget about peak performance. Would your results improve if you simply focused on being reliable in the normal moments?
Show up when it's easy to skip. Do the fundamentals and do them well. And so on.
Before you make it complicated, remember there are always simple improvements waiting to be made."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-9-2023
- "At some point, you will have to learn to let go.
There is an endless list of obligations and expectations, desires and ambitions, and worries and fears that will always be ready to insert themselves between you and the feeling of peace.
If you never learn to let them go, there will never be enough."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-9-2023
- "You are not the cause of everything that happens to you, but you are responsible for how you respond to everything that happens to you."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-30-2023
- "It is not too late to do what you want to do—if you stop waiting for the time to be right."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-30-2023
- "Life is harder when you expect a lot of the world and little of yourself.
Life is easier when you expect a lot of yourself and little of the world.
High standards, low expectations."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-30-2023
- "You should always be rooting for the people you know. Not only because you may need their support tomorrow, but also because it feels good to celebrate something.
Celebration can rescue your day—even if it is someone else's victory. Envy will ruin your day—even if you're actually winning."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-1-2024
- “When I go into a situation, I try to keep a mindset of baseline optimism.
When starting the day: It’s going to be a good day.
When meeting someone new: I’m going to like them.
When trying something challenging: It’s going to work out.
Problems will inevitably arise and I’ll deal with them as the situation demands, but my preference is to assume I’m on a winning path until proven otherwise.”
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-1-2024
- "I can't control the other person's behavior, but I can control my response. Their actions may be rude or unacceptable, but I still want my response to be measured and thoughtful. Even if they aren't doing what is right, I still want to make sure I'm doing what is right."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-29-2024
- "In theory, consistency is about being disciplined, determined, and unwavering.
In practice, consistency is about being adaptable. Don't have much time? Scale it down. Don't have much energy? Do the easy version. Find different ways to show up depending on the circumstances. Let your habits change shape to meet the demands of the day.
Adaptability is the way of consistency."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-29-2024
- "Early feedback is usually better than late criticism.
Delaying the conversation or stringing someone along with indirect feedback won't make them feel better once the real issue is finally addressed.
Nobody likes getting bad news, but everyone appreciates clarity."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/april-18-2024
- "Mastery is not only about getting better at your craft, but also about finding ways to eliminate the obstacles, distractions, and other annoyances that prevent you from working on your craft.
Top performers find ways to spend as much time as possible on what matters and as little time as possible on what doesn't. It is not someone else's responsibility to create the conditions for success.
You have to actively work to eliminate the things that don't matter from your workload. If you haven't figured out how to do that, you haven't mastered your craft."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/april-11-2024
- "You can ignore your weaknesses, but you can't expect them to not impact you. The weakness of the coach shapes the players. The weakness of the teacher influences the students. The weakness of the parent molds the child."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-9-2024
- "Don't wait to start writing until you have something to say. Start writing so you can find out what you have to say.
You first idea is rarely your best idea. It can take a lot of reps before you discover something worth keeping."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-9-2024
- "Never outsource what you enjoy."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/april-25-2024
- "How to connect with others:
Share with someone who wants to listen or listen to someone who wants to share."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/april-25-2024
- "People can help you in many ways throughout life, but there are two things nobody can give you: curiosity and drive. They must be self-supplied.
If you are not interested and curious, all the information in the world can be at your fingertips, but it will be relatively useless. If you are not motivated and driven, whatever connections or opportunities are available to you will be rendered inert.
Now, you won't feel curious and driven about every area of life, and that's fine. But it really pays to find something that lights you up. This is one of the primary quests of life: to find the thing that ignites your curiosity and drive.
There are many recipes for success. There is no single way to win. But nearly all recipes include two ingredients: curiosity and drive."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/april-25-2024
- "It's never the right time, but right now is usually the best time."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-30-2024
- "Three ways to learn something new:
Reflect on what you have already tried.
Attempt something you have not tried.
Read about what someone else has tried."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-30-2024
- "Move toward the next thing, not away from the last thing.
Same direction. Completely different energy."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/june-13-2024
- "Mastery requires lots of practice. But the more you practice something, the more boring and routine it becomes.
Thus, an essential component of mastery is the ability to maintain your enthusiasm. The master continues to find the fundamentals interesting."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/june-13-2024
- "Focus on your likes, not your wants.
You may not want to exercise, but you like how it makes you feel.
You may not want to write, but you like the feeling of accomplishment.
You may not want to wake up early, but you like the calm beauty of morning.
Wanting is the desire you feel before doing something. Liking is the satisfaction you feel after doing something. Let your likes guide you." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-3-2024
- "Don't just imagine doing things someday. Do them now.
Get out of your head and take action." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/september-26-2024
- "You can't change your past, but you can reframe it.
Find the lesson in it. Find the opportunity in it. Pull the teachable moment out of it and share with others.
You can't choose your history, but you can choose the story you tell about it." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/september-19-2024
- "Two years, not two months.
The visible progress you're hoping for usually comes slower than you'd like. Even with consistent effort it can take a long time before progress feels significant. It might be a year of writing and editing before the book really starts to come together. You may need two years of recovery from a major injury before you notice just how far you've come. It may take two years of yoga before you realize how flexible you have become.
Take a deep breath, stop worrying about immediate results, and settle into a nice routine." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/september-19-2024
- "Opportunities are grains of sand. They slide right past drooping fingers, but an active palm can gather whatever is within reach and shape it into a little castle. It is the act of engaging with the material that gives it shape." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/september-12-2024
- "The secret of creative work is to make a lot and publish a little.
Don't underestimate the power of giving yourself permission to create junk. Most of what you create will be mediocre or bad.
But that's okay. You only have to show people the good stuff. Make 100 things, discard 90, and share the 10 best. Create, create, create. Edit, edit, edit." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/september-12-2024
- "You can carve out a very good career simply by being the most reliable person on the team. You would not think that always showing up on time, hitting every deadline, and responding quickly and professionally to all communication would be such a differentiator, but these traits are always in short supply." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/september-5-2024
- "Clarity is freedom. Know what is important to you and it will grant you the freedom to ignore everything else." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-29-2024
- "Dreams are fun when they are distant. The imagination loves to play with possibilities when there is no risk of failure.
But when you find yourself on the verge of action, you pause. You can feel the uncertainty of what lies ahead. Thoughts swirl. Maybe this isn't the right time? Failure is possible now.
In that moment—in that short pause that arises when you stand face to face with your dream—is the entirety of life. What you do in that pause is the crucible that forges you. It is the dividing line between being the type of person who thinks about it or the type of person who goes for it.
When I really think about it, I want that moment to be my legacy. Not that I won or lost. Not that I looked good or looked like a fool. But that when I had something I really wanted to do, I went for it." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-29-2024
- "Plant the seeds of greatness in your mind." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-22-2024
- "The strategy required to find a great opportunity (lots of saying yes and exploring widely) is different from the strategy required to make the most of a great opportunity (lots of saying no and remaining focused)." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-22-2024
- "When you drink water from a cup, it becomes part of you. When water falls on you like rain, it evaporates a few minutes later.
Similarly, thoughts can be consumed or dismissed. Is this thought nourishing? Is this feeling something you should drink? Or is it more like getting caught in the rain?
You'll always feel the rain, but you don't have to drink the rain. You can let the thought pass and in a few moments the sun will return. You don't have to claim everything you feel." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-15-2024
- "Who knows you is more important than who you know. Build a brand." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-15-2024
- "It is not worth it to be greedy over a single transaction. Even if you're not going to work with the person again. Even if you think word won't get out. Even if you think this is your one shot to make it. Reputation follows you everywhere." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-15-2024
- "If you want a simple formula for having a good day, then get a workout done and do your most important task before lunch. Knock out those two things by noon and you really feel like you're ahead of the day." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-15-2024
- "The reason people get good ideas in the shower is because it's the only time during the day when most people are away from screens long enough to think clearly. The lesson is not to take more showers, but rather to make more time to think." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-7-2024
- "How to clarify a concept you can't articulate:
1. Change mediums. Draw it. Photograph it. Sing it.
2. Change levels. Explain what is one level up (bigger picture) or one level down (finer details).
3. Change fields. What would this concept look like in different fields?" https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-14-2024
- "You'll probably surprise yourself with what you can accomplish—if you're focused on one thing.
You'll probably frustrate yourself with what you fail to accomplish—if you're doing 5 or 7 or 10 things.
Nobody performs well when stretched in a half dozen directions."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-16-2024
- "Whether you are an adult or child, your first attempts will often seem unimportant or foolish.
The open mic night at a nearly empty bar.
The early blog posts that get ignored.
The dance recital on a little stage.
Early attempts are easy to dismiss because they don't seem to amount to much. But you have to do the low stakes stuff to prepare for the high stakes stuff. They are the building blocks of confidence, and that's an enormous thing."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-16-2024
- "Clarity isn't about knowing what you want to do with your life, it's about knowing what you want to do this week.
You don't need to have it all figured out. You just need to know your next step."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/may-23-2024
- "Do not mistake a confident explanation for an accurate prediction.
An engineer can predict how much weight a steel bridge will hold and you can be quite sure reality will match their calculation. That's an accurate prediction.
Meanwhile, strongly held opinions about what will happen in markets or sports or politics have little predictive power. A lot of what you hear can be summarized as: confident, but inaccurate."
(Inspired by a recent conversation with Morgan Housel.)
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/june-20-2024
- "One of life's counterintuitive lessons is that you will often gain energy by spending a little bit of energy.
When you feel lethargic and like you want to lay around all day, it is usually the case that getting up and moving will make you feel better than simply sitting around. Getting outside for 10 minutes or doing the first set of a workout or simply stretching on the floor for a moment — anything to get your body moving — will often leave you feeling more energized.
If you want to get your day going, then get your body going. It's harder for the mind to be sluggish when the body is moving."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/june-20-2024
- "Make a mistake? Release the guilt, remember the lesson."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/june-27-2024
- "The first minute of action is worth more than a year of perfect planning."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/july-11-2024
- "One of the great mistakes in life is suffering for years because you didn't want to feel foolish for five minutes.
You don't want to apologize, so you let a relationship deteriorate.
You're scared of the sting of rejection, so you don't ask for what you want.
You fear people will say your idea is dumb, so you never start the business.
Nobody likes feeling foolish, but the feeling fades quickly. The willingness to endure five minutes of discomfort turns out to be a meaningful dividing line in life."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/july-11-2024
- "A great relationship is not only finding the person you have fun with, but also finding the person you want to be bored with. The beauty of long-term relationships is often hidden in boring, ordinary moments."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/july-18-2024
- "Some projects benefit from early action. If you're writing a book, it's easy to spend a lot of time brainstorming titles and dreaming up an outline, but it's better to simply write. The book discovers itself as you go. Yes, you'll need to go back and organize things, but this is easier to do once you have material. The key is to act first and then organize your thinking.
Other projects benefit from early planning. The best way to build a skyscraper is to plan carefully. If you start placing steel beams on day one, you're guaranteed to run into problems. It is harder to make changes once you've begun. You'll need to tear it down and start over again. The key is to organize your thinking and then act.
Do you need early action or early planning?"
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/july-18-2024
- "The bad workouts are the most important ones. It's easy to train when you feel good, but it's crucial to show up when you don't feel like it—even if you do less than you hope.
Going to the gym for 15 minutes might not improve your performance, but it reaffirms your identity. It's not always about what happens during the workout. It's about becoming the type of person who doesn't miss workouts."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/july-25-2024
- "When you're younger, it's easy to underestimate how fleeting the days can be. Each choice matters. Each day matters.
When you're older, it's easy to underestimate how much opportunity you still have. Don't talk yourself out of it. It's never too late to start."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-1-2024
- "Communication is about what is received, not what is intended. If there is a gap between what you are saying and what they are hearing, you have to find a new way to say it."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-8-2024
- "The problem with smart people is they can come up with a good reason for not doing anything. They are smart enough to find the cracks, to foresee the challenges, and to talk themselves out of the idea. They are experts at justifying their lack of courage or lack of action with an intelligent excuse.
But there will always be reasons to not do something, and this is particularly true of anything worth doing. We value those moments in which we overcame challenge, not those in which we avoided it. Ultimately, action is a choice. The choice to emphasize the reasons for doing it despite the reasons you have for avoiding it."
https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/august-8-2024
- "Compete externally and you compare.
Compete internally and you improve." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-10-2024
- "Two is twice as good as one, but one is infinitely better than zero.
One minute of making sales calls is infinitely better than zero minutes.
One minute of meditation is infinitely better than zero minutes.
One minute of writing is infinitely better than zero minutes.
Sure, it might be ideal to spend an hour doing these things, but one minute gets you in the game. Now you're learning. Now you're improving. Now results are possible. One doesn't seem like much, but it's something real. At zero, you're still dreaming." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-10-2024
- "The secret is to do a few things for a long time.
The challenge is...
(1) You need to experiment and explore quite a bit to find the thing that is worth doubling down on. It may take a few years (or a decade) to find the project or relationship or cause that you want to commit to for a long time.
(2) New things are always coming up. Once you find something you want to do for a long time, you need the courage and discipline to say no to the shiny, new opportunities. After years of exploring and experimenting, it can be hard to flip the switch and remain focused.
You have to be willing to explore widely enough to find your thing, then willing to focus narrowly enough to make it something great." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-10-2024
- "Being kind to others is mostly about your actions.
Being kind to yourself is mostly about your thoughts." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-17-2024
- "There is no need to fear any problem you are working on. If you are working on it, then you are influencing the outcome.
It's the problems you don't address that should concern you." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-17-2024
- "Before you worry about how to win the game, figure out whether the game is worth winning." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-17-2024
- "In many cases, you'll find the only thing preventing you from learning is your ego.
No one enjoys feeling foolish, but attempting something new requires that you climb down from your perch and struggle as a beginner. You must ask questions that reveal your ignorance or attempt skills that make you look uncoordinated.
Learning demands the willingness to live in a brief state of discomfort. You must believe that looking like a fool for an hour will not ruin your reputation for life." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-24-2024
- "Self-talk strategies:
If you need confidence, talk to yourself the way you would talk to a friend.
If you need persistence, talk to yourself the way you would talk to a student.
If you need patience, talk to yourself the way you would talk to a child." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-24-2024
- "If you look for evidence that people are conspiring to hold you back and the world is working against you, then it will take you no time at all to find precisely that.
If you expect to encounter helpful people and experience a world that is working with you, then you find plenty of evidence to support that view as well.
The raw material for a sweet life or a bitter life is always there. The story you emphasize is the one you notice." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/october-31-2024
- "A critical quality to develop in life is the willingness to try. You simply must find enough confidence to give it a go. The human mind is fabulous at learning. You will get better at whatever you practice. But before you can develop the skill to succeed, you must find the courage to attempt." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-7-2024
- "When you think you are too old to do something new remember you will never be younger than you are right now." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-7-2024
- "You can lose yourself one small compromise at a time.
You can transform yourself one small win at a time." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-28-2024
- "Train hard and focus on what you can control." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-28-2024
- "You don't have to be good at everything, you just need to double down on what you're naturally suited for." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-28-2024
- "If you're eager to learn—even if you aren't particularly talented—then you can make it a long way despite your shortcomings.
But if you're not eager and curious, you'll find your natural abilities often fall short of what is required." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-21-2024
- "Limiting your options now will expand your opportunities in the long run because you can remain focused enough to master something.
Keeping your options open now will reduce your opportunities in the long run because you divide your attention and end up doing an average job on seven different things.
Are you falling into the pattern of always mastering one thing or always chasing the next thing? https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-21-2024
- "Decide the type of person you want to be.
Prove it to yourself with small wins." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-14-2024
- "The more an idea is tied to your identity, the more you will ignore evidence it is false. People seem to have no trouble finding reasons to ignore the merits of ideas they dislike.
To continue to grow and learn, you must be willing to update, expand, and edit your identity. In many ways, growth is unlearning." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-14-2024
- "The creative process:
Discover - Read a lot. Observe the world. Notice.
Collect - Immediately record anything that strikes you.
Generate - Build on your notes to brainstorm lots of ideas.
Combine - Connect previously unconnected ideas.
Refine - Edit, edit, edit. Select the best." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/november-14-2024
- "You are better equipped to deal with stress when you are moving.
When you feel tense or frustrated or worried, it is difficult to think your way into feeling better. The more you think about the situation, the larger it becomes in your mind. Trying to think your way out of it often leads to a spiral of overthinking and rumination.
The first step is not to think something different, but to do something different. It doesn’t matter what. Stretch on the floor, go for a walk, work on a project. Get out of your mind and move your body." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/december-19-2024
- "Your habits are often a byproduct of convenience. Humans are wired to seek the path of least resistance, which means the most convenient option is often the one that wins. Make good choices more convenient and bad choices less so. Behavior will improve naturally." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-2-2025
- "Use what you already know. People are so busy searching for a shortcut — or hoping an easier path will reveal itself — they let numerous moments slip by when they could get results simply by doing what is right in front of them." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-2-2025
- "At any moment, you are one good choice away from a meaningfully better life." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-9-2025
- "Savor the little victories as much as you criticize the little mistakes." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-9-2025
- "If you keep showing up, you'll almost certainly break through — but probably not in the way you expected or intended. You need enough persistence to keep working and enough flexibility to enjoy success when it comes in a different form than you imagined." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/january-9-2025
- "The quality of your thoughts is determined by the quality of your reading. Spend more time thinking about the inputs." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-6-2025
- “What you push down doesn’t vanish. It festers and wields quiet power over your thoughts and actions.
What needs to be addressed that isn’t currently being addressed?” https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-6-2025
- "Nearly everything awesome takes longer than you think.

- "Take all the energy you spend on...
worrying about the past
worrying about the future
worrying about what others think
worrying about if you might fail
... and channel that energy into one useful action within your control." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-27-2025
- "Stories of failure resonate more than stories of success. Few people reach the top, but everyone has failed—including those who eventually succeed. If you're teaching people how to succeed in a given field (or talking about your own success), start with how you failed." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-27-2025
- "Success is largely the failures you avoid.
Health is the injuries you don't sustain.
Wealth is the purchases you don't make.
Happiness is the objects you don't desire.
Peace of mind is the arguments you don't engage.
Avoid the bad to protect the good." https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/march-27-2025
- "Things that keep people from fulfilling their potential:
Lacking the courage to try
Trying to please everyone
Imitating the desires of others
Chasing status without questioning why
Playing superhero and trying to do it all alone
Dividing attention between too many projects" https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1/february-27-2025
