I’ve been getting up at 7:30 every day and exercising since I got back, which is essentially unheard of for me. It’s very exciting.
Unfortunately, there is a lot non-rationality related stuff that needs to be done in the next three weeks, so I’ve had very little time to synthesize and go through the rest of it. I’m hoping that in a month when things are less crazy I’ll be able to commit half an hour a day as was suggested, but am worried that by then momentum will be lost. Any suggestions?
Rather than thinking of it as spending 30 minutes a day on rationality when you should be doing other things, it might be more accurate to think of it as 30 minutes a day spent optimizing the other 23.5 hours. At least in my experience, taking that time yields far greater total productivity than when I claim to be too busy.
