All you need to do is go to sleep before 12 every single night and wake up at 7am without fail, hit the gym and crank out a few sets of squats, hit the pool and the sauna, read a chapter of that book, and then cook yourself an amazing breakfast, all before 9am.

If you're a real go-getter, though, you'd wake up at 6am and do some vibe coding for an hour on that side hustle.

Super simple.

This but unironically. I don't post on LinkedIn or anything. But sometimes it seems like all the agonizing people sometimes do over whether or not they should follow their plan (fitness, diet, productivity) makes it ten times worse.

It can be possible to decide to do something in advance, and then... just do it. The more times you do it the easier it gets. My wife comments on this sometimes. I guess not everyone has this? Maybe it can be learned? I don't know.

Don't forget to spend a few minutes journalling self-affirmations.

I know you’re being smart but these things are all possible if you want to make them happen

Agreed, and then I just jump back in time two hours so that I can get to work on time, because that is what successful people do.
