Example, the reason I uninstalled the health app on my iPhone, thus disabling the step counter is this; the days where I think I walked a lot, and then I checked the step counter, and I actually look at the actual number, it is typically a lot less than I expect. And this is disappointing.

Which makes me think, numbers typically disappoint us.

For example, we seem to be addicted to numbers. Numbers in terms of return on investment, profits, the money in our savings account, and also looking at the percentile charts for children, regarding their height and weight. Everyone wants their numbers to be most supreme.

However, in order to do more, achieve more, and become more, I say demetricate yourself. That is, detach yourself from numbers, and detach your self-esteem from numbers.
