1. Stop Being Busy?
One of the things I try to do when things are not going my way is to “Fill up my calendar” 🗓️
Aka Take up a lot activities that makes me “feel” like moving towards a goal.
Example – “oh no! I’m getting fat!!”
My response – “ok, I’m gonna exercise more, wake up early, cut the junk, eat protein, hire a trainer…” you get the idea. 🤷♂️
But often all I needed to do was;
“Wait, I should just stop eating while watching TV” 📺
The problem is solved by removing the core constraint.
And that’s the lesson I’m learning – You gotta do the thing that solves the issue.
That “thing” isn’t 10 random things. It’s often 1 or 2 uncomfortable things.
2. Being Busy = Lazy?
This quote from Tim Ferris further expands on this in the most simplest way.
Activity is not productivity.
Efficiency is not Effectiveness.
3. Favourite Quote of the Week

Best,
Kesh.
