Break your own rule
Break your own rule
We often set goals for ourselves and unless we get the results we are looking for, we stop seeing the point. We can follow a rule or a habit for a while, but long term, it’s hard to keep something going when results are low. If we want something really badly, giving up a rule we set is always a possibility. If you really want to buy something, the rule is to wait a set amount of days having each day be another portion of how much that thing costs. Sometimes by the time you have the amount, you don’t care to get it.
Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist – Pablo Piccaso
To avoid this, the best thing to do is reflect on when you were highly motivated as compared to now. Look for when you broke a rule or abandoned a goal, and look at the difference in time. Reflect on how you felt when you started. Constantly analyzing ourselves and what we are doing, helps us to see if we are on the same track we initially set out to do.
