Tuesday the 28th of May 2024 and I'm recording this reflection on my phone which kind of sucks because I've been on a very good streak for like the past seven or eight days where I've been recording on my like you know h1 microphone which makes everything sound a
million times better so I'm already rearing myself for the reality that this isn't going to be of any great quality. But still I'm going to try and make the reflection sound as awesome as possible. And this is basically like an expansion on what I've been talking
about I guess in recent history like when it comes to habits. And it's like you know I'm going to start off by again bringing up the question of what is going to happen if from a task as seemingly meaningless as making your own bed. Like, you know, again, most people, like this doesn't necessarily define your success or not, whether you make the bed or not,
because there are people who are probably successful as hell and they've probably never made it, you know, they've never made their bed a day in their life. But at the same time, what I do want to stress is that, like, you know, if you find something like making your bed challenging and let's say for example like you know the thought of like you making your own bed
like after you get up in the morning is something that just basically it either terrifies you or you run away from it or you don't want to do it because you're feeling lazy like when it comes to like the challenges that really do come your way you're effectively gonna fumble you're gonna fold and you know like I wanted to touch on that a little bit because I wanted to talk about how, like, you know, you know, habits make you or break you.
Like in the instances in which, like, you know, let's say for example, like, you know, a regular gym goer or a bodybuilder, like, you know, typically you might get instances where the bodybuilder has built themselves up, like on the top end of their body, but when it comes to the bottom end of their body, so that includes the legs, calves, quadriceps, hamstrings, and stuff like that,
you can see that they look very lopsided. And when it comes to music, I do recognize instances when people's music sounds effectively great, but everything else isn't. The cover art isn't great, their role at campaign isn't great, their ability to connect with people isn't great, their ability to sell their music isn't great,
and this is the reason why habits are good, building these habits from the beginning are very, very good because they teach you how to discipline yourself in such a way where you are constantly shooting and aiming for excellence. I am now in a position where, don't get me wrong I'm not necessarily
looking for perfection here but you know I do look for the highest quality I can deliver in a given time frame rather than like you know another instance where let's say like I am shying away or I am running away from something that is difficult or something that doesn't seem like it's worth it in the beginning because it doesn't gratify me with that which I'm looking for within this very instance. So yeah, so the moral of the story is habits are good, delayed gratification is also good.
