If you assume that your life is a resource, time is its unit.

Your time is finite.

The stoics remind us of this in “memento mori.” Remember, you’ll die.
Because being finite creatures, we must decide what we focus on. We can’t have it all. The key to a good life is focusing on what’s important to you.

Choose what’s important. Doubledown on that. Enjoy the ride.

As a result, you’ll see your life as meaningful.

Deciding what to do next becomes easier when you know where you’re going. You orient everything toward your direction. The decision process gets simplified. Your attention is on getting what you want. New shiny ideas or things are no distractions to you.

It’s better to finish something than start everything, not finish anything.

I want to show you how to start creating a direction to get what you want
