Taming the day- "90% diligence & 10% talent"
Hello!
Lets talk about inhibitions and hurdles in taming the day. As someone who has tried almost every trick to stay on track and create a routine and series of habits that help me in navigating life as I see fit. Here are my observations:
Diligence is key, identifying action items and getting started is simple enough but executing is tricky the answer, identify immediate distractions and actively avoid them.
Mindfulness is a resource, to be mindful of what you want to do and what you seek to achieve is an ability that is honed with experience and painful repetition. This resource is vital and integral to tame any desire.
Hunger! Literally and metaphorically, this is a trait that needs to overflow and encompass your goals. Always be hungry and stay hungry.
Patience is your friend, to be diligent and mindful the one thing that you need as a fait accomplice is patience. Invest time in cultivating vast amount of patience.
Wabi Sabi! This world for better or for worse isn’t perfect and that is an irrefutable fact. Chasing perfection is wasteful so instead keep doing what you can in ways the day allows you.
“Being a lawyer is 90% diligence and 10% talent” said my boss once. The above list is my way of embodying that statement.
The beginning is easy and continuing is the real test.
