United States is probably the best example why every country should be trying to attract the best immigrants in the world
And at the same time be strict about keeping bad immigrants out or deporting them
What I hate most about European's fear to discriminate, is that we end up bringing in the wrong people, then really bad crime and ghettos happen, and now you force people to vote for right wing nationalists who actually are fully anti immigrant which isn't what we want at alll I think
The balanced view is in the middle
A routine I avoided because it conflicted with comfort or habits:
Going for walks.
In fact, just walking.
Because you don't scroll social media or read books while walking,
That's just silly.
What I misunderstood about consistency for years is this:
The compound interest it delivers.
There's this fake quote from Einstein going around of him mentioning the power of compound interest.
There's truth to it, especially when it comes to doing, consistently.
Of all the mistakes I kept repeating because I optimized instead of executed, this is by far the biggest:
Building around my need to share my learnings,
Instead of
Building on top of the problems I solved for myself,
And seeing if enough others are wanting a solution.
Why starting small felt wrong but worked anyway:
Standardizing is key to compounding
Start doing then add more
(Weights, lines, reps, kms, miles, calls, connection requests, comments, etc.)
It feels like not doing enough, but that's not the point
The point is consistency
A system I resisted because it felt too simple:
The 1 push-up method
(or the equivalent, ie. writing 5 lines every day no matter what)
Basically standardizing, before compounding a new habit or regiment
Towards a worthy goal or operation
What boredom taught me about discipline:
less effort + boring repetition > high effort + willpower
Discipline = boring
+
I'm excited about being disciplined.
@yongfook And you can always hope that the people at kantor Immigrasi aren't in need of some liquidity and - oh I don't know decide selling old personal items on fb marketplace is illegal.. ๐ค
@yongfook It's possible to "pre-agree" on the next 25/30 years, so there's that,
Which really helps the realization that that initial investment of 300k suddenly becomes 500 or 600 for the same property.
A habit I delayed because I thought it had to be extreme:
All the habits. Including but not limited to;
- posting online
- exercise
- business
I still struggle with the adage: energy in, energy out or something similar like "It can't be worth much if it's easy"
Ask: why easy?
