You need a System
#83: You need it, your goals need it, your life need it.
When a system is set up to accomplish a goal, a new entity has come into being — the system itself.
A system is never the sum of its parts; it’s the product of their interaction.
Setting up a system
Leverage tools/apps/experts/methods.
Define how they communicate and integrate.
Create a mindmap of its connection and flow.
System for everything that repeats
Every decision in your life costs a few moments of thinking and few ounces of your willpower (to stick with it) and some energy.
If you follow the system, and let it lead, then you can save more of your precious energy and other decision-making costs.
Your outcome’s quality depends on the system’s quality
Focus more on tuning the system.
Your goal is to make an ideal system and keep it running.
The outcome is the by-product of the system you made.
There’s a system for everything
You have it. You follow it like a routine and ritual. But you are never aware of it.
If you’re not aware of it, you can’t control it.
If you can’t control it, you can’t take advantage of it.
Define your system now.
Your system is your assistant.
Your system is your motivator.
