The Artist’s Sister at a Window (1869)_Berthe Morisot (French, 1841-1895)
My post "Don't Send Me KakaoTalk Messages at Dawn" surpassed 4,000 views on Brunch.
It seems that not many people want their personal time interrupted. For everyone, their own time is precious. Some people may use that time to rest, while others might be building new habits. Those who rest will do whatever they want, and those who want to develop new habits will go through their own trial and error during that time.
When you want to properly develop good habits, you need to specify the time and place and block out distractions.For me, just like A, dawn is that time. Even if it's a short 30 minutes (or even more than an hour), if I create a specific and clear habit for myself, I know I can look forward to a more developed version of myself in 3 or 5 years. Anyone who knows this will not dare to interrupt another person's precious time slot.
▶ People who make concrete plans about when and where they'll perform a new habit tend to stick to it more. A large number of people try to change their habits without considering these basic and detailed aspects.
▶ I will [action] at [time] in [place].
▶ Assign a time and place to the habit. Clearly specify the time and place. If you repeat this enough, you will do the right thing at the right time without questioning "why".
▶ Instead of pairing a new habit with a specific time and place, pair it with your current habit.
After [current habit], I will [new habit].
▶ "I should read more books." "I should eat healthier food." These are great habits, but they don't tell you when or how to act.
