Today's Reading List 📚
(1) Everything is aiming: forget the target and focus on your aim
by Anne-Laure Le Cunff (5 mins)
Kyūdō, the Japanese martial art of archery, teaches an alternative philosophy where the aim matters more than the goal. The master encourages the student to forget about the goal and focus on the way they are aiming. In life, the goal is the target we want to achieve, while the aim is the course we set to reach that target. Focusing on our aims is a mindset shift that allows us to break free of the arrival fallacy and enjoy the process.

(2) How To Think In Funnels (And Achieve The Best Possible Outcomes)
by Frontera (4 mins)
Thinking in funnels is a mental model that breaks down goals into stages to improve conversion rates and achieve the best possible outcomes. To apply this model, map out the stages of what you want to achieve and normalize failure as a part of the process. Improving conversion rates is key, and funnels can be useful tools beyond marketing. Don't spend too much time on analysis and precision, but keep trying new things to achieve better outcomes.

(3) The absurdity of over-optimizing by Khe Hy (3 mins)
Over-optimizing can lead to absurdity in productivity culture. Instead of asking how to get more out of an activity, ask why you fear being ordinary or can't take a walk without headphones. Learning is crucial for staying relevant and winning. Consider if you're playing the right game and who deserves your best energy. Obsession with productivity can lead to the Deferred Life Plan, trading time and mind space for a better tomorrow. Don't forget to ask why and prioritize what makes you come alive.
