#314 - Why Less Is More - The Law of Subtraction

If your goal is to be happy and successful then you what you are trying to do is build loops that make behaviour that brings happiness and success as automatic as possible.

Here’s why that’s not only hard, but impossible for most people ot figure out.

They try to ADD things.

Books, gurus, courses, coaches, seminars, routines, habits.

But that’s like adding new rooms to a home built on wooden- termite invested foundation. With each additional room you add, you only speed up the collapse.

You have to tear the entire fucker down and rebuild a new foundation. Nietzsche figured this out. He calls it his three step metamorphosis and his overman concept. “Make it a rule never to withhold or conceal from yourself anything that may be thought against your own thoughts. Vow it! This is the essential requirement of honest thinking. You must undertake such a campaign against yourself every day.” Friedrich Nietzsche Remove and simplify and address rather than pile on and further clutter your inner world.
