  • When facing a decision, you picture yourself on the other side of that decision. You then make a decision to be kind to Future You. You make this decision even if it takes a little effort in the moment. This is the essence of discipline.

  • First, you fill your life with what matters to you. Then, you will naturally spend less time on shower cleaning or email or whatever else seems to fill the hours.
    • Tags: [[productivity]] [[happiness]]
  • Some people are deeply invested in the idea that their families or workplaces would not function in their absence.
