James Clear on Paradox of Risk

vutran | April 24, 2020, 4:31 p.m.

"The paradox of risk:

(1) Don't put all your eggs in one basket. If you lose the basket, you lose it all.

(2) Don't put your eggs in too many baskets. The more baskets you manage, the less energy you can put into each one. It's risky to do things halfway.

Diversified, but focused."

— James Clear

James Clear on Identity Habits

vutran | April 23, 2020, 6:34 p.m.

"True behavior change is identity change. You might start a habit because of motivation, but the only reason you’ll stick with one is that it becomes part of your identity. Anyone can convince themselves to visit the gym or eat healthy once or twice, but if you don’t shift the belief behind the behavior, then it is hard to stick with long-term changes. Improvements are only temporary until they become part of who you are."

— James Clear
