OK this is kind of a big thought especially Now that’s my cousin in school, the general idea is that when you’re setting up life things and decisions, you must always strategize for buffer both ways of the equation. This goes both with having buffer time in front and in the back.
For example, once you’re late you’re late forever. And if you’re early, there’s really almost no downside because you could just like do virtuous activities or readings or just looking around when you’re early.
The general idea I have is even when you try to be early, often you’re just like right on time, or maybe barely like three minutes early?
also another big thought is that honestly, maybe you always expect things will take like five times longer or 10 times longer than you Anticipate it? For example, when it comes with like traffic, getting to the airport, random breakdowns of cars on the 405, tail events,… Always be like 10 times over collateralized ? Maybe this also applies to money
