COT: I’ve been struggling with Heroic Individualism as defined by Brad Stulberg. My intent had been to do Words based on his book The Practice of Groundedness, but life got in the way and couldn’t prepare a Word for this Q. Actually, heroic individualism got in the way. I had an opportunity to do some professional development that would be amazing and a big resume builder. But it’d be a huge commitment and require a massive amount of time. My wife and I chatted and she asked what I’d have to give up to take something like that on? What’s less important in my life right now that I could replace it with this opportunity? Her, the kids, work, F3, church, etc? Turns out she’s right and I have no more time to give, or at least that much time for that level of commitment.
Everything has an opportunity cost. Taking something on might mean not taking something on lad or perhaps having to let go or step back from something you’re already doing. There is only so much time available to you, so while you may want to take on all the amazing opportunities that come your way, but choose wisely so you don’t over burden yourself to a point you’re half doing everything and losing focus on those things that matter most.
