Hell Yeah or No: what’s worth doing

The world treats you as you treat yourself. Your actions show the world who you are.

Time really is limited. We can’t pretend it’s not. Time spent doing one thing is time spent not doing something else. It’s so easy to waste time doing stuff that’s not important, not really fun, and not useful to anyone, not even yourself.

No matter what you tell the world or tell yourself, your actions reveal your real values. Your actions show you what you actually want.

No matter what you tell the world or tell yourself, your actions reveal your real values. Your actions show you what you actually want. There are two smart reactions to this: Stop lying to yourself, and admit your real priorities. Start doing what you say you want to do, and see if it’s really true.

Refuse almost everything. Do almost nothing. But the things you do, do them all the way.

What do you hate not doing?
