"To think is easy. To act is hard. But the hardest thing in the world is to act in accordance with your thinking” ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
On this special Wednesday Mind Bullet episode, we explore a topic rooted in the great quote above by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. To paraphrase: Thinking is easy. Acting is hard. But to act as you think is the most difficult of all!
Taking action is a common theme here at Habits2Goals. Recall Napoleon Hill's words: "Action is the real measure of intelligence."
How often do we "think" we should eat a certain way. Do we always act that way? We think we should save money. Do we?
Acting as we think is difficult! But this is more than discipline or willpower: Are we acting in coherence with our thinking?
The beginning of acting as we think is the (drumroll) . . . establishment of a habit!
Listen in for a discussion of why goal-setting sometimes crumbles and how self-efficacy -- the ability to produce a desired result -- is the direct product of PARR.
Enjoy!
