"What are you optimizing for?"
I recently saw someone on twitter mention this as the question they ask of people to cut through the noise. A very interesting question. It got me thinking. I am writing about it. I think everyone should think about it and ask this to themselves. Now I won't reveal what my answer is, it is all personal to everyone. Different people will have different goals. Happiness, Freedom, Family, Relationships, Money etc. Different aspirations. Whatever. But you should ask yourself this question again and again to gain clarity on what you are doing. Is what you are doing working. Is it worth it? Asking yourself this will definitely make you re-evaluate some things you may do. Streamline some things. Cut some things off. Try giving it 5 minutes of your day.
