The Game w/ Alex Hormozi

NOTE

Short-term Pleasure vs Long-term Benefits

Making decisions based on saying yes for short-term pleasure can lead to regrets in the long run, while saying no may feel difficult initially but can result in future benefits. Our tendency to say yes is often driven by the immediate rewards it brings, despite the eventual consequences. This behavior is similar to seeking instant gratification like wanting a cookie. Being able to recognize this pattern and its consequences can help overcome the urge to constantly say yes. In business, the allure of constant rewards may fade when faced with challenges, leading individuals to seek new, more rewarding opportunities. Reframing our perspective on reward and effort can help in making better decisions for long-term success.
