But why do you want to do a lot of things, but you can't stick to it in the end? Is that self-discipline can't be achieved? Many people give the reason that their willpower is not strong enough, so they always want to exercise and improve their willpower through some methods.
In fact, everyone has willpower. The reason why you feel powerless is because you spend it on some small things. For example, what clothes to wear when going out every day, what to take out for dinner, and whether to add sugar to milk tea. When you make a choice and make a decision, you are already consuming your willpower. And when faced with what you want to do, you need to make important decisions, and you don't have enough willpower. For example, do you want to go to bed early today, do you want to read books and so on.
Reduce some consumption, concentrate willpower on what you want to do and make good choices, so as to achieve self-discipline. How to do it specifically can be carried out from the following four aspects.
First of all, 1 is centralized processing, which reduces the consumption of small things.
I just said that it takes willpower to decide what to wear and eat every day. Then let's put them together and spend a day making a decision.
You can choose a time on the weekend and concentrate on deciding what to wear every day next week. If you want to wear seven sets a week, you should match all seven sets in advance, what to wear on Monday and what to wear on Tuesday, and then you can take them directly without making a choice before making a decision.
What to eat every day, you can also make a menu in advance. If you cook by yourself, you should also make the menu in advance, prepare the ingredients you need in advance, and then just follow it directly.
This consumes a day's willpower, but the next few days don't need to be spent on these little things, they can be used elsewhere.
The second is to fix some behaviors that happen every day, and it is best to form habits.
What time do you get up in the morning, go to bed at night, eat three meals a day, and so on. These are fixed and will not change frequently. Once you change, you need to re-select and re-decide, which will also consume willpower.
Breakfast at 7: 30, lunch at noon 12. Settle down and form a habit. If you are hungry, you will feel hungry. If you are hungry, you will eat. I won't say that I'm busy at work today. Do you want to wait until I finish eating, or if I'm not busy at work today, do you want to eat in advance? This process of thinking consumes willpower.
Settle down, make fewer choices, make more decisions, and don't spend more time on willpower.
Just now, I fixed my daily behavior. The third method is to determine the process of what I want to do every day, especially the workflow.
Faced with a lot of work every day, it is best to take some time to decide what to do first and then what to do. If you already know the content of next week's work, or the content of work is the same every day, you can also decide everything for next week at the weekend. What to do first, what to do later, and when to finish are all early decisions, which not only saves thinking, but also reduces confusion, thus reducing more decisions and saving some willpower.
The fourth method is to create an environment and reduce some unnecessary choices.
When we introduced attention before, we said that when reading a book, you can't concentrate with your mobile phone at your side. You always want to look at your mobile phone, which requires you to make a choice, and making a choice will consume your willpower. Now you don't have a mobile phone in front of you, only a book, which can also reduce some choices and save willpower. So, please create an environment with few choices for yourself.
If you want to work, turn off some message reminders and email reminders to minimize the interference of colleagues in advance; If you want to go to bed early, create a good sleeping environment for yourself and put your mobile phone far away before going to bed.
Only by reducing consumption and putting willpower on what you want to do can you persist longer and be more disciplined.
