Success Triggers By Ramit Sethi – Brutal Honesty Update

I was going to listen to the next lesson on Success Triggers by Ramit Sethi and then answer the study questions in my post. But when I looked at the video, I saw that it was 15 minutes long, and I didn’t want to spend the next 45 minutes watching the video and answering the questions. I hope that I can look at it tomorrow.

So far, I’m not feeling much different with Success Triggers. I understand the concepts, but my mindset hasn’t changed much. I feel pretty much the same. I did a couple of weekly goals such as learning the next lesson of Spanish on Udemy and cooking once. I didn’t get around to editing a song on Logic Pro x. I didn’t really spend my time searching for a song or reviewing old songs I never finished. I didn’t set a reminder or anything. But, I did succeed at 2/3 goals.

I feel like reviewing Success Triggers is more of a chore now. I was kind of hoping I would enjoy it in the beginning. It’s not bad, but there are other things I’d much rather do, like watch Running Man or play Monopoly online. I already do other kind of “chores” that involved reading or listening to an audio, so it takes up more effort to want to listen to Success Triggers.

I do think that there’s reason to continue it and finish it though. I never know what the next lessons will do for me. Maybe there’s something in those lessons that I’ve never heard of before that may be useful to me. So, I do want to finish it eventually.

I wonder if I’d be better of reading the transcripts as opposed to listening to the audios. It’d take less time. And also, I thought about maybe not answering the study questions in blog posts. My previous blog posts on the different lessons of Success Triggers sound pretty weird without the questions. I purposely did not include them because I didn’t want to share the content of the course directly. I think my answers are okay because I’m writing them myself and you wouldn’t really know what the study questions are necessarily just because of the answers. For example, if someone responded with “elephant”, you wouldn’t know if they asked “what’s the biggest land animal” or “what’s your favorite animal” or “what word begins with the letter E” or anything else for that matter. So, I think that’s okay to post. However, my posts don’t really flow that well. It kind of jumps from one point to another without any real transition, so it sounds kind of odd.

Anyway, so far I haven’t experienced any profound changes with my mindset in what I’ve learned from Success Triggers. I guess it takes time. I’ve only learned a couple of new things so far. I guess I haven’t really given it a chance to implement these new ideas, so I should wait until the end to give me verdict of whether or not it’s worth purchasing the course.
