Rule of 3rds
I heard this on a podcast, from an olympian. Whenever you’re chasing a big dream:
- 1/3 of the time, you should feel good
- 1/3 of the time, you should feel okay
- 1/3 of the time, you should feel like shit
If you feel roughly in those ratios, it means you are in fact chasing a dream. Else, adjust.
