You can’t out-supplement poor boundaries and no sleep.

Productivity without purpose is just efficient emptiness. Know your why.

Design trumps discipline. If you make it EASY and SATISFYING, you won’t need willpower.

Burnout isn’t just overwork - it’s under-recovery and lack of meaning.

Batch the annoying things. Admin, errands, emails - group and get them done

Sometimes a good walk solves more problems than a perfect plan.

Don’t measure hours - measure value. Time spent is irrelevant without results.

Output Goals > Outcome Goals

Repetition beats intensity. Daily 30-minute walks beat a once-a-month marathon.

[The_Wellbeing_Guy @TheWellbeingGuy]

The truth is, the best individuals in their fields are experts at being bored.
Doing anything, even if it’s your hobby, countless time to become the top 1% will get boring.
Top athletes and the elite are experts at tolerating boredom and repetition.

Sometimes I struggle to think of the answer to
"What makes me happy?" is and I seem to return to the same answers... and it's not certain activities, what I gain from others or external affirmation... but our 3 psychological needs - I'll outline them below: 👇

[The_Wellbeing_Guy @TheWellbeingGuy]

In Self Determination Theory, our 3rd psychological needs is Social Connectedness, feeling understood and on the same wavelength as our peers. But

Purpose is the 3rd drive based on Daniel H.
Pink's book Drive. I cover this subject so we can live better live in the video below 👇

When what we are doing aligns with something we find PURPOSE in. When we are driven by a purpose we are doing something that is about something bigger than ourselves and we find value in this.

[The_Wellbeing_Guy @TheWellbeingGuy]

COMPETENCE. We need to feel we're good at what we do. Tasks that are too tedious bore us & tasks too difficult frustrate us & can lead to failure. But when we feel competent we enter a flow state, we can focus & feel good about ourselves - especially when our 3rd need is in play
