so I think with finances, weightlifting, powerlifting etc.… So much of our values and goals and stuff is with a certain number.

For example, to lift four plates, five plates, six plates, 7, 8 plates, nine plates, ten plates, 11 plates etc.

or for the international folks, a certain number, like 100 kg, 200 300 400 500 kg etc.

Also the funny thing is with height and weight; it seems that in America everyone wants to be 6 foot and above, in Asia or international either 180 cm or beyond 190 cm?

Problems

the issue here is the issue with numbers, round numbers.

First, the difference between the standard system and the kilogram system. For an American, if you tell somebody that somebody is 6 feet tall or 7 feet tall we know exactly what that means. Or if somebody’s only 3 feet or 4 feet tall or 5 feet tall.

Or a thing with the British, they talk about stones like how many stones you weigh. Losing or gaining a stone, the American has no idea what this means.

or with weights, if you’re not really a weightlifter, if somebody tells you that you could lift 1000 pounds, they’re not gonna really know what that means.

therefore money… The goal to accumulate like $1 million, $2 million, 1 billion, etc., it’s kind of a bad goal because it doesn’t really mean anything. Once you hit the goal, It is a bit anti-climatic.

Also my goal was to lift 1000 pounds and I did it… And I feel great, but now what?

Therefore as a simple idea… The goal isn’t to hit a certain number, but to just never stop stacking!
