I can move my stuff on my calendar around, blah blah and
Make all kinds of crazy gymnastic leaps to not getting up.
But I study Chinese in the morning and I have to schedule my lessons a week in advance.
And if I cancel one, I can't just push it an hour.
It just gets I lose it and it costs me money.
So I scheduled all of those for first thing in the morning.
Like get up, don't even shower, just crawl over to the computer and you know, work on Skype.
And so what that does is when I wake up and I look at the clock and I go,
Oh, but I'm so comfortable.
I go, well, do I want to lose a Chinese lesson, feel guilty about not doing the lesson, then sleep crappily for another 35 minutes and then get No, that's gonna be awful.
And so I created a pain point that was greater than the pain point of getting out of bed.
And I do that in many areas.
When it comes to eating, when it comes to getting up early, when it came to running, creating a pain point that is greater than the pain point of not of inaction is key.
Because and you've probably heard this a million times, but seeking pleasure is much lower on the
Schedule of what your brain will force itself to do versus avoiding pain.
So it's your brain prime prioritizes avoiding pain versus seeking pleasure.
And so if we can set up it's not enough to say, if I get up and work out this morning, I'll have a cake later or whatever, or I'll watch some Netflix.
It doesn't work as well as going, you are going to follow face the following consequences immediately.
Immediately by not getting up.
And and that is the way to do it, not by reward, which is counterintuitive for a lot of people.
