The Odyssey Plan
Ask yourself 3 questions:
- Five years from now, what does my life look like? Does it excite you?
- Five years from now, what does my life look like if I were to take a different path? Does it excite you?
- Five years from now, what does my life look like if I didn't have to worry about money or societal expectations?
You don't have to commit to one of these paths.
The purpose of this is to know what it means to have a life that I love and generate ideas.

Iterate
If a method doesn't work, don't quit right away. Just think of another method.
