A simple way to radically improve the quality of your life is to embrace “Long-Termism” as an operating principle in your life. In this episode, Rick explains the idea of “Long-Termism”, and how moving your mindset to focus on decades into the future can impact the decisions you make today. He uses the example of marriage. If you want a long-term marriage, write down a description of your relationship 10 years in the future, 20 years into the future, and 30 years, etc. When you think about the big picture with a long-term mindset, you are more easily able to identify the things in front of you right now that are definitely not going to help you get there. None of us want to look back and wish we would have made better choices. They say hindsight is 20/20. Making a commitment now to put the principle of long-termism into operation in your life, in all areas, will instantly increase the odds you end up where you want to be.
