🎯 Mission First: Tackling Hard Problems Like a Pro
Feeling 100% certain about a plan? That usually means one of two things:
- The problem is too easy and won't get you promoted
- You're making tons of assumptions that will prove wrong
Think of missions like video game levels:
- Easy and Normal = everyone can do these (soon automated)
- Hard and Insane = where the real value is
The 2% Rule for change:
Your body and mind can only handle about 2% change at a time - roughly one hour per week. More than that leads to crashing.
Imbalance isn't bad! Life is about getting back into balance, not staying perfectly still. Like running side to side on a boat - that movement keeps you alive and thinking clearly.
