You'd never start a project without knowing what it's going to cost you. But most people say yes to commitments without running those same numbers.
Jesse calls it choose your consequence. Consequence isn't punishment. It's just the result of every decision you make — whether you thought it through or not.
He puts his own life on the table. Explains why he doesn't date. Not because he can't. Because he did the math on what it costs — hours, money, focus — and decided that's not where he wants to spend it.
Every yes is a no to something else. The question is whether you're choosing that tradeoff on purpose.
If you keep ending the week feeling like you worked hard and moved nothing forward — this one's for you.
