Choosing one thing means not choosing millions of other things 🚪
The Rule
Oliver Burkeman says that choosing one thing means not choosing millions of other things.
Limited Time
Our time is limited, so we cannot choose everything.
⚡ TRY IT
Which door will you open today?
+ 999,994 more doors out there
🚪 Doors you did not open: 0
Pick 1 door you want to open.
You opened 1 door. The other 5, and millions more, closed. That is the rule, not a mistake. 🙂
One at a time! That is the rule. 🚪
…That is, if we can really choose at all. 😂
Not A Failure
Not choosing the others is not a failure. It is just the rule.
Enjoy It
So, just enjoy the one you chose.
His Joke
Burkeman even makes a joke at himself: "Well, that is, if we can really choose."
