- A magic trick that gives you extra time
A magic trick that gives you extra time
to introspection, approach girls, and even rest.
Hey dude,
Today has been a roller coaster of a day.
On the backend (pun not intended), I’m developing an app to help you with your emotional and mental health, and this morning I met some challenges.
A lot of time that I was going to spend on doing something else was lost, but I still had meetings to attend.
Just before one meeting, I had the opportunity to hire a guy to help me out with something in the business and that’s when the old part of me wanted to postpone it.
You know what I mean right?
The discomfort of making a decision can be overwhelming, so we postpone it to the last possible moment.
It’s just like approaching a girl.
You see her on the metro, or in the store, and you know she is attractive
you might start thinking about how you can talk to her, and then suddenly the moment has passed, and she is gone
then on the way home, you start thinking how you could’ve done it and so on…
Anyways,
this is not only a problem of losing opportunities to meet girls, but if you are spending minutes, hours, maybe even days and weeks to make a decision
your mind is using energy and you’re wasting valuable time
that you could use to pursue your goals instead.
That’s the reason why some people grow 400% in a certain period while others stay the same.
How do you start making quicker decisions, so you can have more time and energy available for your personal development?
Here is a quick fix, and it’s so simple you might laugh
it’s like magic…
Get yourself a rubber band
Put it on your wrist
When you are faced with a decision, you pull it back and when it hits your arm, you make it
Then do that, do NOT go back on it.
Over time, your confidence will grow, and you won’t need it anymore.
All the best,
Edin
PS: I hired the guy and he starts on Monday
