In all that you do, question deeply the direction each task points you in.
While it may feel obvious that we want to be pointed towards “success,” “fulfillment,” “realized potential”…
The things we do each day often act in opposition to those seemingly obvious goals. When you look closely, what you might realize is that:
- “Success tasks” often point you away from family.
- “Fulfillment tasks” often point you away from yourself.
- “Realized potential tasks” often point you away from skill building.
Repeat after me: no action without confirmed direction.
P.s. If you want to ensure the actions of your life are pointed in the right direction (and you don’t arrive at a later point in your life with regret), I created a guide that you can get here.
