3 Questions You Need To Answer Before You’ll Have The Life You Want
By Ryan Holiday
In life, we come across all sorts of decision points, particularly if we choose to go into business for ourselves. Should I do ______? What about ______? Is _______ a good idea? Deciding what to do in each one of those situations can be exhausting and stressful and costly. If we’re not careful, we can find ourselves in what Robert Greene calls “tactical hell” where we only see what is immediately in front of us and lose sight of any larger plan for our lives.
In building my company and in working with and advising many other companies and people over the years, I’ve found that three important decisions, made early, can eliminate so much of that anguish. They can set you up to not only be successful, but put you in a position to enjoy that success. These three choices have changed my business life. But they have also fulfilled what I think are the two main criteria for anyone making choices about how to run their life and work: 1) They made me money. 2) They made me happier.
Hopefully they’ll be of some service to you too.
1. Decide Your Why
…
2. Decide How You Want To Live
…
3. Decide To Be OK With What Others Do
…
These choices aren’t easy. But they’re important.
Make them. Don’t run from them. Or you’ll run into them. And it will hurt far worse than whatever initial discomfort you might feel making them now.
Good luck.
