See, when you’re in the noise, you can’t think. The noise of distraction and attraction and diversion technology. Find some time every day to be amid tranquility so you could think. When you’re alone, and I’ve found it’s the best thing first thing in the morning, you can actually think about your values and you can actually get to know yourself again, and you can actually breathe and you can actually contemplate, what am I going to do today? How am I going to live? How can I make today on earth a valuable day? You can actually, the willpower of researchers call this pre-commitment strategies. So you can actually ask yourself, when I feel tired, but I want to exercise, what will I do to make sure I exercise? Or you can actually ask yourself in terms of a pre-commitment strategy, if I’m dealing with a difficult customer or a difficult situation at work, what will I do so I don’t dissolve into mediocrity and so I can protect and insulate and fortify my A-game.
