from The Upside of Irrationality: The Unexpected Benefits of Defying Logic at Work and at Home by Dan Ariely

How to Apply This

  1. Take time to work on a project that you enjoy.
    For example, if you like gardening, start weeding and planting some veggies in the backyard instead of hiring a gardener. Spend some effort cooking your favorite meal instead of eating takeout.

  2. Make sure that you finish every project that you start.
    For example, if you start building a cabinet or bookcase, make sure you see the project through. Completing a project generates more satisfaction and fulfillment than an unfinished one.
