If you’re under 35 try consider replacing all resolutions with equivalent make-more-money resolutions. Examples: Exercise more = +10k for a 3x/week personal trainer Eat better = +10-60k more for eating out at salad places/exec chef Learn stuff = +5k-15k for personal coach

Solving problems with money is more efficient in proportion to how much you value your mental effort resources for other stuff you enjoy more. If those activities pay on a leveraged way, the trade off is 100% worth it.

Why under 35? Because concentrating your mental resources on your comparative advantage creates a kind of high-drive exhausting raw energy positive feedback loop that I’ve only seen younger people handle well. And that loop is what creates the surplus to pay for other stuff.

The older you are the greater the financial surplus you need to achieve the same level of attention concentration on a core positive feedback loop. Money is a more achievable kind of leverage when you’re younger though you need it more badly when you’re older.

Why does leverage drop with age? Because of less time left for investments in your core abilities to compound?
