I've maintained a daily habit of walking 10,000 steps since 2018. I share my journey of consistency, how I integrated walking into my routine, and the long-term lessons I've learned from this simple physical activity.
I analyzed 11 million steps from my last three years of walking to optimize my health and efficiency. By lengthening my stride by two inches, I aim to reach 5 km/hr and save eight minutes per 10k steps.
I reviewed my 2020 progress on reading goals and daily walking while sharing my 2021 resolutions for weight loss, embracing failure, and calendar integrity. I also highlight the productivity impact of Landmark and Art of Living courses.
I started with 10 push-ups a day and add one more daily, using habit pre-stacking before yoga to remember. After 16 days and three misses, I reached 23 push-ups.
Boost your creativity by introducing artificial constraints, such as picking a random word from a dictionary to incorporate into your ideas. Remember that total freedom often inhibits the creative process, while limitations force more innovative thinking.
I explain the deceptive difference between APR and interest rates (IRR). Using a 10-year mortgage example, I show how APR averages total interest over the initial principal, making loans look cheaper than their actual declining balance interest.
