I have observed you.
That sounds slightly threatening.
It is not.
Though I admit it sounds better that way.
You rely too much on willpower.
Excuse me?
You keep placing temptation directly in front of yourself and then congratulating yourself for resisting it.
Why?
Because resisting temptation is good?
Occasionally.
But if you want to read every evening, put the book where you sit.
If you want to exercise, make it ridiculously easy to begin.
If your phone destroys your concentration, stop keeping it beside your hand like a tiny glowing servant demanding attention.
Okay, the phone one feels aggressive.
Good. It should.
Your surroundings are quietly training you all the time.
So I should redesign my surroundings?
Exactly.
Make the behaviour you want easier to start.
Make the behaviour you dislike slightly annoying to begin.
Slightly annoying?
Put the biscuits somewhere inconvenient.
Put the running shoes beside the door.
Log out of the website you keep opening when you should be working.
That sounds almost too simple.
Good. Self-mastery does not require you to fight yourself every morning. Sometimes the cleverest move is simply changing the battlefield.
