One of the many changes inspired by Casey Means’ Good Energy is to optimize for 10,000 steps every day. A simple tactic to achieve this on days I go to work is to park far away from the building where I work.
Funnily, prior to optimizing for more steps, I used to feel a shred of annoyance when I didn’t find a parking spot right next to the building where I worked.
I now willingly opt in to taking the scenic route instead.
Same outcome, different emotions.
A good reminder that so much just depends on what we’re optimizing for.
