Optimizing what you can control can protect you from what you can’t. Your life is a series of interconnected systems that connect with other larger systems, which connect with even larger global systems. The farther away from you these systems are, the less ability you have to control them. However, by optimizing the systems you have the most control over, you can lessen the effect of those larger, uncontrollable systems on your life. Rob breaks these systems down into 3 orders: First Order systems are those you have complete control over – your habits, your spending, your diet, etc. Second Order systems you have some control over, such as your job. Third Order systems are so big, you have zero control over them, like the weather or the global economy. In this episode, Rob explains how the mastery your First Order systems will ultimately determine the quality of your life. Learn more about this episode.
