"Studies show that bright lines—non-negotiable rules—reduce decision fatigue and strengthen willpower. When the choice is already made, you can focus your energy where it matters most—on taking consistent action."

“Here’s one way to approach it: Push the ultimate desired outcome off into an unknowable future horizon then break the big goal down into smaller chunks. Identify THE next most important little domino that needs to get knocked over. Set a challenging but realistic target for THAT goal, then figure out the PROCESS you need to engage in on a daily basis to hit that goal and voila! You’re an instant success as you show up and take the next baby step, remembering to celebrate the small wins as you create a feeling of continuous achievement. Remember: We want that inspiring, jumbo-huge goal to serve as a RUDDER pointing us in the right direction as we practice staying fully engaged in one moment after the other. That’s much better than using our unrealistic goal as a measuring stick that depletes our energy as we worry about why we’re not already at our goal.”
