Started the day strong with a 3-minute plank, breakfast prep, and a solid 10km run. But let's talk about something that's been on my mind—the Red Queen Effect.

Ever feel like you're working your ass off but getting nowhere? That's the Red Queen Effect. It comes from Alice in Wonderland: "You have to run as fast as you can just to stay in the same place." Sound familiar?

Here's the real insight: humans can handle difficulty, but we can't handle complexity. Think about it—a day with taxes, work calls, awkward conversations, projects, and random tasks feels absolutely horrible. But a day doing just ONE of those things repeatedly? Still hard, but way more manageable.

The difference? Difficulty we can handle. Complexity destroys us.
​

Most people treat life like a buffet—they pile everything onto their plate thinking they're strong enough to handle it all. But your system isn't built for endless complication. There are only 24 hours in a day, and burnout isn't about working too hard—it's about juggling too many different things at once.
​
So ask yourself: are you running too fast on the treadmill? Or are you trying to juggle too many things? Sometimes the answer isn't to work harder. It's to simplify 💪
