Hi @JamesClear, finished your audiobook and it’s been very helpful! I’m out of a job at the moment and your tip of designating work/play areas in the house really helps me turn off/on in my job search.
I’m looking for a book on perfectionism next. Any recommendations?

Jeff Bezos on Managing Stress
"Stress primarily comes from not taking action over something that you can have some control over.
So if I find that some particular thing is causing me to have stress, that’s a warning flag for me; what it means is, there’s something that I haven’t completely identified perhaps in my conscious mind, that is bothering me, and I haven’t yet taken any action on it. I find, as soon as I identify it, and make the first phone call or send up the first email message or whatever it is that we’re going to do to start to address the situation, even if it’s not solved, the mere fact that we’re addressing it dramatically reduces any stress that might come from it. So stress comes from ignoring things that you shouldn’t be ignoring, I think in large part.
People get stress wrong all the time in my opinion. Stress doesn’t come from hard work, for example, you know you can be working incredibly hard and loving it."

Most companies suck at setting goals.
But Google, Amazon, and Microsoft figured it out ages ago.
Here’s their simple but powerful goal-setting framework (that you can use personally too):

Highs that don’t lead to subsequent lows:
• Meditation, gratitude, prayer, journaling, unconditional love.
• Yoga, exercise, play, nature walks.
• Creating art, reading for fun, singing, poetry.
• Practicing a craft, pursuing curiosity, work done for its own sake, flow.

Besides hard skills, side projects teach how to manage emotions. You start noticing details, worrying about things you may have missed, anxious about feedback, elated about progress. Thats a very underrated benefit for many.
Sums up our transfer window perfectly:
1. We haven't even spent whole of Hazard, Morata money yet.
2. When Frank Lampard talks, players listen!
Loving my club atm!💙💙 @ChelseaFC @ChelseaIndia

This is the kind of BS we were dealing with tonight... Sometimes it’s not meant to be, but: Our Chelsea will win more FA Cups, we will win Premier Leagues with Super Frank in charge, and we will be challenging for every Trophy. This young Chelsea are just getting started!
