Welcome back to another optimize +1. In our last +1, we talked about the fact that 25 minutes every day equals two years of your life. Did you figure out how you're wasting time and make some progress eliminating that time wasting activity? If so, high fives. If not, here's a tip. In bored and brilliant, Manoush Zomorodi gives people a seven day challenge to invite more boredom and more brilliance into their lives. Challenge number four is pretty epic and and it's the fastest way to add two years back to your life. So here's how she puts it. She says, quote your instructions for today. Delete it. Delete that app. You know which one is your albatross? The one you use too much. The one you use to escape too often at the expense of other things, including sleep. The one that makes you feel bad about yourself. Delete said time wasting bad habit app. Uninstall it, end quote. Yes, that app. Which one is it? Want two years of your life back? Delete it now. I know it's going to hurt, but so is you looking back on your life from your deathbed and wondering why you squandered so much precious time and didn't go all in on living your greatest life. So Jim Rohn's wisdom comes to mind. He says we will all experience one pain or the other. The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. But the difference is that the pain of discipline weighs only ounces, while the pain of regret weighs tons. Let's pay in ounces. Delete that app. Hey, this is Brian with a quick question for you.
