Scope: you know you can do (almost) anything, though you cannot do (almost) everything

Time frame: you see that most people overestimate what they can get done in 5 days, but underestimate what they can do in 5 years

Managing expectations: You accurately predict your own staying power--and of those who support you

Self sacrifice without martyrdom

Opportunity cost: you know when to quit—and won’t beat yourself up about it.

[relate to "Unlimiting beliefs"?]

Meh:

Here are some creative ideas to expand on the optimism advice page:

• Practical Exercises
  • 5-year vision journaling exercise
  • Weekly "possibility scanning" meditation
  • Decision-making framework for quitting vs. persisting
• Mental Models
  • The "Energy Bank Account" - tracking emotional investments
  • The "Future Self Navigator" - making decisions with long-term perspective
  • The "Opportunity Portfolio" - balancing multiple life paths
• Mindset Shifts
  • Reframing "failure" as data collection
  • Viewing time as an ally rather than an enemy
  • Embracing "productive quitting" as a strategic skill
• Support Systems
  • Creating a "possibility partner" accountability system
  • Building a "resilience circle" of supportive relationships
  • Developing personal renewal rituals
• Action Frameworks
  • The "5x5 Rule" - 5 minutes of action toward 5-year goals
  • Regular "staying power check-ins"
  • Monthly opportunity cost assessments
• Reflection Tools
  • Success-to-effort ratio tracking
  • Personal energy mapping
  • Support network sustainability assessment

These ideas build upon the existing themes of scope management, realistic time frames, expectation management, balanced self-sacrifice, and strategic quitting.
