Up until recently, I was often someone who did the latter option in both of those scenarios because on their own, those actions seemed like small, isolated choices that I didn’t see negatively impacting my life in the long run. Blinded by my own preference for instant gratification, it was easy to lose sight of my longer term goals. I’ll wake up at 6:30 AM tomorrow, I thought to myself. I’ll get work done tomorrow. Then before I knew it, it had been two weeks and tomorrow hadn’t happened yet.

These little choices add up, so I recently started pushing myself to find ways to tackle this inertia. I realized that I couldn’t trust myself to simply check things off a to do list because I hadn’t trained myself to be that dependable yet. It became clear to me I wasn’t excited about what I was doing. That needed to change.
