Day 74: On Acting Less and Thinking Mor e

Act less, think more. Reflect on what really matters to you. Stop doing

anything that isn’t valuable, that doesn’t make you happy. Savor life.

—Richard Koch

 

70

This advice goes against the grain as self-help authors usually suggest

to  behave  the  other  way  around:  think  less,  and  act  more.  The  danger  in

acting more than thinking is that eventually you’ll find yourself working on

goals you don’t really care that much about or doing things in a less than

optimal way.

For example, when I was working on my fitness goals, I acted a lot. I

religiously  followed  my  workout  schedule  and  did  everything  I  could  to

build a strong body, including eating foods recommended for bodybuilders,

recording  videos  of  my  lifts  to  improve  my  technique,  and  even  hiring  a

fitness coach.

I acted a lot, but thought too little.

It was only when I stopped and reflected on what mattered to me that I

realized  that  I  had  never  wanted  to  be  a  bodybuilder.  I  was  following  the

wrong ideal, chasing something that didn’t make me happy or produce any

visible  results.  Upon  this  realization,  I  redesigned  my  entire  approach  to

fitness and started doing something that finally felt natural instead of forced

.

Periodically pause and reflect on your own choices. Are you pursuing



goals that matter to you? Are you working on your goals in a way that fits

your lifestyle, or is there imbalance and disharmony?
