Reflection
Discipline
You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.
— James Clear
आप अपने लक्ष्यों के स्तर तक नहीं उठते। आप अपने सिस्टम के स्तर तक गिर जाते हैं।
— जेम्स क्लियर
Why this matters:
You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Goals are for people who want to win once; systems are for people who want to win repeatedly. Willpower is a finite resource, but a well-designed environment makes discipline the path of least resistance.
यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
लक्ष्य उन लोगों के लिए हैं जो एक बार जीतना चाहते हैं; सिस्टम उन लोगों के लिए हैं जो बार-बार जीतना चाहते हैं। इच्छाशक्ति एक सीमित संसाधन है, लेकिन एक अच्छी तरह से डिज़ाइन किया गया वातावरण अनुशासन को सबसे कम प्रतिरोध का मार्ग बनाता है।
