How to make it a habit? Get disciplined first, fall in love later.

July 24, 2021 by Dror Allouche Leave a Comment

Often, valuable activities are disguised.

At first, they look painful – and they are. Short-term pain, long-term pleasure. So you usually have to force yourself to go one step further. But then you always feel better.

And to progress we know that we need to be disciplined. We need to go further on, often.

The interesting part is that discipline brings practice.

Practice often produces interest.

Interest reinforces practice.

Regular practice brings progression.

Select one idea, one thing you really want to do. Get disciplined on a small commitment. Discover the pleasure hidden in it.

As you start to appreciate it, increase your commitment. You are on your way to success.

What is the next thing you’ll do?
