#317 - How Simplicity Can Transform Your Life
from The Better Human Podcast · host Colin Stuckert
Humans are drawn to complexity. We believe complexity is better because it seems like it should be better. So we get drawn into complex nonsense that takes us further away from where we want to go. The reality is, simple is better. Simple is the foundation of everything. If you end up going into complex domains, your best path forward is riding the simplicity train through the complex web of options. Simplicity is the dedicated focus to first principles. Keeping things simple is hard. It takes sustained effort and constant reminders to stay the course. Don’t waste time complaining or blaming. Don’t waste time trying to predict every possible outcome or worst-case scenario. Don’t waste time thinking about sunken costs. Just answer this question: What should I do now? That's it. It’s really as simple—and as complicated—as that. 👨 The Better Human Podcast is a show dedicated to the pursuit of Building Better Humans. Hosted by Colin Stuckert, Entrepreneur, Thinker, and Better Human Builder. 🧑🤝🧑 We are obsessed with finding ways to become better. We are PRO HUMAN and celebrate the collective human experience. 📖 We bring on human guests to teach, share, and learn.
