Making yourself NOT do things is harder then making yourself do things

It’s also more beneficial

 

It’s easy to DO something. Anyone can do something once, or for 5 minutes

It’s harder to UNDO. It’s harder to NOT do. It’s harder to break the chains of routines which reined you your entire life

 

You obviously have some bad habit

Part of your time is alloted to different actions designed to render you better off

Then part of your time you engage in the SAME behaviours you’ve been habitually engaging your entire life — the same bad habits — which don’t leave you better off.

It’s harder to change the latter. It is also more beneficial.

 

Destruction is easier then creation

You could be sculpting a beautiful sculpture for months — then destroy it with a single careless movement

You could be amassing wealth your entire life — then throw it all away with a single bad “investment”

 

Your bad habits are destructive

Destructive not merely on the surface, directly tangible level — but destructive for the totality of what you are becoming, becoming with your hard work.

How much more powerful is someone who can change not only some aspects of his life — but ALL aspects of his life?

 

Target your worst parts

Target your worst parts for obviously there’s the greatest opportunity for improvement

But target your worst parts because those parts are the bottleneck of your evolution
