Underpromise and overdeliver

 It’s a dawn of a new beginning. 2022 a lot of promises, maybe New Year's resolutions for going to the gym.

All of those big promises will fail. Not because you do something wrong, but because you want too much too fast.

Instead of overpromising and underdeliver, try to underpromise and overdeliver.

Don’t ask for a fit body, ask to not go over your body weight and do one more push up per day.

Don’t ask to be rich, ask to have at most the same amount of expenses per month minus 1 dollar.

Start small, and if it works, keep going. Try to under-promise and day after day, month after month, increase the level. Increase the difficulties. Keep going until you reach the hardest level, which, in your case, will be your desired level.

New year preparations

 I stopped preparing for things since August this year. I decided to go with the flow. With no plans for the New Year, today I received an invitation to a party. Seems like not having any plan was the best plan in the end.

The last post

 This is the final post of 2023. I plan to take a break now. I wish you happy celebrations of 2024 and may next year bring us more joy and prosperity and focus on the most important things.
