#3: Be Slow to Make Decisions - Monk Mindset


Listen Later

One day I wanted to go for a hike on a Sunday afternoon with some friends. I was feeling FOMO, also known as fear of missing out. An old monk asked me if it was a good idea if I go hiking that day and asked me if I had checked the weather. I said, "Yeah, yeah, I checked it and I'm going to see my friends from out of town." Well, I didn't check the weather and I was too interested in getting outside of the monastery that day. My friends and I didn't plan well for our hike and veered off the trail. I was quick to make the decision and quick to veer off the trail. We ended up getting lost and getting rained on. After hours of making our way back, I showed up wet and frustrated. I ran into the old wise monk when I got back and he just looked at me with a smirk and said, "Next time you should check the weather." https://MonkMindset.com
