How daily habits form

Mickey Mouse on parade float
Disney over-focuses on the same thing others under-focus on or ignore. You can and should over-focus too. It will save your life.

How do daily habits form?

Simple repetition.

Shortcuts.

Dogma.

Prevailing wisdom.

Thriving or declining is facilitated by the exact same habit forming process.

It gets worse

Nice house, admirable street address. And all the work hours you can handle. The job, and climbing the ladder to the next job (for the pool or bonus room addition), lure you into an insidious trap, the career prison.

Please be careful.

Observe the elders in your family, and your friend’s families, even your boss’s life. And ask a simple question, “Are they living vibrantly?”

You cannot be anxious

The 2021 Olympic gold medalist. To what end does the process of competing with the desire to win facilitate or crush personal freedom – peace and contentment from things that don’t matter.

Impatience, worry, fear, doubt, and anger.

These things kill peace.

Comparison, FOMO, ambition, and greed.

These things kill contentment.

Are you spiritually trustworthy?

Subdivision entrance signs
Good versus evil happens in places as small as a 30-home subdivision. A super hero, or a band of super heroes – united to do good – is never trivial.

In hindsight, i never truly trusted myself when i made habitual excuses for not being at peace with who i am and content with what i have.

Scroll peace and contentment

Scrolling is not the way.

Endless (and perhaps habitually mindless) scrolling.

If you think it’s not habitual, try not doing it anymore – like quitting smoking, or quitting alcohol.

Fear of missing out?

Keeping up with the Jones?

Positioning, posturing?

Begging for attention?

Enabling overflowing peace and contentment?

That last line, again, a joke.
