Like a good little boy, I've been doing my meditation, gym, nutrition, journaling, affirmations (few years ago), cold plunge, sauna, wim hof, waking up at 5:30am, and bought all the planners etc etc, did ALL the popular strategies. If you told me something would help me, I would do it every day, religiously.
It's taken me a few years, but I am beginning to realize, the true killers in business don't usually do all these fancy routines. They get up, grab a coffee, take a piss, and do the work...
I am not saying there is no value in healthy habits, not at all. But first things first, the work. Not your 2:45hrs morning routine.
In your opinion what are the biggest traps we fall into as entreprenurs and people who relentlessly optimize and strive to improve?
What lies have we been sold that are far from the truth of success?
