Maybe everyone should define first what is NN for him... That is a strong workshop itself.
Because maybe you think you like something, but in reality not.
The other day my 13 year boy asked me why I was taking a beer. Do you like it he asked. And I said no. Then why do you take it? He asked...
So this is only an example of how we do certain things just for social integration, old habits, or old conditioning...

I cant tell you how many times ive given up something important to me and later really regretted it. Like if you were schedule a client during your Crossfit time - and then they don't show. I gave up an important trip a couple years ago because it conflicted with a VIP job i thought was going to be$10k-$12k. I thought i needed to be available for it. It ended up being barely $2k and i still regret missing the event i cancelled on.

You only need one or two experiences like that before you start to re-prioritise things. They make you realise life is short and you need to stick to your non-negotiables.

Exactly. I think it's an important exercise to go through? Most people haven't thought about these kind of questions.

Paul. You are right. We need to pick such NN properly. Otherwise you miss the fun of life. But I agree with you. Such an interesting theme. Thanks,

If you stick frenetically to your non-negotiables then you also lose freedom.

This might be the case but if non-negotiables are generally things that make you happy that you don't want to sacrifice, are you losing freedom?

No I don’t think you are - you have the freedom to choose your non-negotiables. Unfortunately we all have moments of weakness due to the conflicts in our lives that put pressure on us. Having our own personal rules before these moments arise gives us that chance to do or be what we want to.
