Day 463: The Hard Part
The hard part is not in figuring out what to do, but in actually doing it.
Things I want to do but fail to do:
- Write my journal entries during the day rather than late at night when I have zero energy and desire to write
- Go to sleep early and waking up early rather than staying up coding while tired
- Not be such a sucker for sweets
- Stop eating when I’m full
- Do yoga in the morning
- Do formal meditation more regularly
- Call friends/family more frequently
- Be a wee bit more responsive in my emails and messages
- Read books
When I do these things, I feel great and know what I want to do more of it, but it’s hard to get them to stick as habits. But there have been periods of my life where these things came super easily. What changed?
