    I do this - quarterly planning, inspired by "The 12 Week Year". You can do 4 x 12 Week Years in a calendar year, with a week "off" between each one to review the previous "year" and plan the next one. I find it very effective, although I'm only coming to the end of my second "year" now. I've found that the goals I set were way too big, even though I only had three of them. I could have made a whole "year" out of each one of them! So, I'm learning all the time, but it is definitely a more effective way of working than annually/monthly. I like a weekly review anyway, and having a 12 Week Year plan that splits into 12 weeks just seems to keep me more focused. I'm sure I'm getting more done.
    Great video, Nikhil. Thank you! Hi to Thomas! :-D Glad to hear you're sleeping - it is the single most important thing anyone can do to take care of their health - and it's free! Sorry about the pain, but you're going to be in even better shape before long, hang in there!

Or try to announce the premiere ahead of time so people watching it the first time can get a spike and tip the algorithm off?

Being able to do things that are outside our comfort zone can be more rewarding, in part, because it's something we've chosen to try or do rather than being compelled or coerced into doing it.

A man who lives with the illusion of tomorrow, will let his life escape him, as the only time you can ever do anything, is today.

  • @BiggyJimbo
    @BiggyJimbo 3 роки тому

    Why would you want to create a sense of urgency? Why spend the precious time we have left stressed, and feeling inadequate that we aren't doing more? Is there anything wrong with just living, and being? At the end of the day, we'll get old, die, and no one will care or remember our accomplishments that we labored for so many pointless years over. I find this a liberating notion, personally. Thinking this way helps me put less pressure on myself to constantly improve, and just be. I feel that, chasing constant improvement will never fulfill people like they think it will. I've tried it, over my life, and it's left me feeling miserable that I don't amount to more. In essence, there's nothing wrong with us as we already are. I believe the need to constantly improve stems from a deep insecurity, and feelings of inadequacy.
    I'm only too happy to listen to any alternate viewpoints, however. I realize this is only my subjective take on life..
