At the start of 2019, I wrote down every lesson I learned throughout the year. Some are personal, others professional. Some are small, others bigs. But they were all learned from experience, not clipped from a book. Here are a few.

3. Be brutally honest about the identifying the very best thing you can be working on. The things that if you do them would have a huge impact on your life. Ignore everything else

4. The social world is an infinite set of overlapping games. People will try to convince you to play their game (e.g. watch their TV show or click their ad), but that game doesn't necessarily help your goals. Instead play you own game.

5. There are an infinite number of things to spend your attention on. So, so many of them don't matter. It does not help you to know some actor is divorcing another actor. Your life is not better for it. Instead be distracted by what matters to you, what advances your goals.

6. Don't work towards job security but career security. You can lose your job even when things seem to be going well (e.g. a strategic shift at a successful company leads to layoffs). Work hard at your job, but accept that your time there is finite, whether two or ten years.

7. Take time off, exercise, stay healthy. You tend to power through things, sacrificing your health in the process. This can sometimes be useful in the short term, but over long periods will absoluitely wreck you.

This is interesting to me as it paints a picture of a life/work where a vast majority of your time is not worth any effort or craft. If all that matters are flashbulb moments along that timeline then it reads pretty dismal. I'm guessing I'm projecting a ton here ya?

I used to feel like
@chrisalbon, but I don't anymore. Bc you can't control outcomes. All you can control is the inputs you bring. It's not that outcomes don't matter, bc that's what we all work in service of. But I judge myself based on how I show up, not just on what I achieve.
