Praying, just giving it all to God and letting Him guide me. Has been saving me tons of time stressing

This. For sure. I find whenever I am too busy to pray in the morning, my day is chaotic. Good to get your head and heart right and lean on Him. Makes a big difference.

I recently decided to start my day by tidying up my desk and organizing my to-do list for the day. It was a small gesture, but it felt so good to have my space organized and my tasks organized. It made me feel more productive and ready to tackle the day.

I prep as much work as I can ahead of time for the coming week. It saves me so much time and I can just dive in and be productive right away vs. spending an hour or more every morning trying to get my ducks in a row.

Delete all social media apps for a month.
(Not your account itself, just the app)
Stop watching porn and masturbating for a month.
Be fully sober for a month.
Wake up early in the morning for a month.

No bullshit, my entire life changed.
I never realized how much "baggage" those bad ha it's carry until I gave them up

Its a huge wakeup call. My productivity, self awareness and overall well being significantly improved.

Ex-MBB, recently started a new MM PE role, but had also applied to HBS in case the PE route doesn’t work out. Thankfully, both the PE and HBS applications were successful. Now I need to decide whether to leave my current role after only 6-10 months to go to business school, or try to defer the MBA.

What should I do? I’m torn between wanting to do MBA at an earlier age vs ensuring good PE employability post MBA(either at current firm or other). Not sure how well 6-10 Mos pre-MBA PE exp is valued
