The 5x5 Rule - Mine Is The 1X5 Rule
If you're unsure what the 5X5 rule is, it's very straightforward. And puts any problems in your life into perspective.
Here's the 5x5 rule:
When you have an issue or challenge in your life take a moment to think whether or not it's going to matter in 5 years. If not, then don't spend more than 5 minutes stressing out about it.
I apply the same rule but for me, it's 1 year.
Ok, that's it.
I believe in you

Love that Leo, people accumulate stress over things that don't really matter. Having this rule will help us define what really does matter, and remove a lot of the noise that could be leading to all sorts to stress and inhibit productivity.
Glad you like it. In the grand scheme of things, most of the things people stress over don't matter.

When you adopt this rule, life becomes a lot smoother. I've been living by my 1x5 rule for as long as I can remember.

Good morning Leo,
I must admit I hadn't heard about me 5x 5 rule, but it sounds like a good one!
Maybe the rule can come down to one day, as sometimes we can just overthink things far too much! But I really like where you're coming from, Leo!
Have a fantastic day.
Roy
