Happy Near Year!
Many of us would begin setting goals and resolutions this time of the year. More often than not, goals to get in shape or get educated in investing are tough to follow-through.
What I find more helpful are setting systems and redesigning your environment (who you hang out with and home layout). Goals are good for planning your progress and systems are good for making progress.
With that in mind, let's jump into my favourite ideas on making progress with goals!
I. By James Clear, author of Atomic Habits
Be “selectively ignorant.”
Ignore topics that drain your attention.
Unfollow people that drain your energy.
Abandon projects that drain your time.
Do not keep up with it all.
The more selectively ignorant you become, the more broadly knowledgeable you can be.
