Optimizing for Yourself

Figure out what you need to optimize for in your work life and your environment. It is very easy to optimize for the wrong thing because most people are optimizing for that same thing.

Maybe there is a truth in what they are optimizing for, but does that truth apply to you? Have you made the assessments on the personal level to know whether you are optimizing for the goal or goals because they fit your own personal needs, or is it because other people are pursuing said goals?

Most importantly, failing to optimize for your own goals or not knowing what the goals are in the first place and defaulting to the general public goal will hurt differently when not attained.

What I mean by differently is that it will hurt hard.

once you become the driver of your own life the sole decision-maker of the issues pertaining your life your goals become clear and you should take full responsibility in achieving those or failing to achieve them.

This process is a conscious, well-thought, silent, slow, and intentional.
