"I would really like to lose weight, but I can't give up my chocolate bar". "I want to get better at developing, but I don't have time for training." What that boils down to is that "I want to do exactly what I'm doing now, but I want different results". Yes that old definition of insanity.
Now here's the real question. How's that working for you?
We are more like a third party library than like source code.
If you want to change something about yourself you will need to change your behaviors. You have to change the inputs to get a different output. Yes there are hacks you can do to squeeze a little more out of the system, but those are supplemental.
Once you figure out what your goals are you need to come up with a plan to accomplish them. Then you need to actually do the thing. The big step one is that you need to be honest with yourself. What do you want? Is it achievable? If so how? Are you willing make the sacrifices needed to accomplish it?
What do you want?
Physical things. Do you want to run a marathon, bench 300 lbs or have 6 pack?
Are you built for any of those things?
Are you willing to put in the work?
Are you willing to sacrifice time, comfort and health?
Do you want to start a startup, get a high paying tech job or be CEO?
Are you built for any of those things?
Are you willing to put in the work?
Are you willing to sacrifice time, comfort and health?
What are your goals?
Are you willing to sacrifice what is needed to get there?
The magic of honestly answering "How's that working for you?" is that it is good to have that validation for things that are working just as much as for things that aren't.
