Maintain a Personal Operating System
✨Key takeaways:

Maintain a personal operating system that specifies how you live your life, including your values, commitments, actions, and things you avoid. Regularly upgrade this system. Use self-help resources as a source for upgrades. Write down the important aspects of your operating system, like what matters to you and what commitments you have. Capture and refine big ideas encountered in self-help resources within your personal operating system. As ideas resonate and stay with you, let them influence the rules of your operating system.
