RE: What would you sacrifice to change your life or the world for the better?

in #philosophy6 years ago

Love this x 10000.
These are things I ponder on almost daily.
Your writing is so beautiful btw!

But man so much truth and wisdom in what you wrote.
In this instant world we live today when everything is being a click away, developing self-control is an essential skill to counter this problem.
It's a constant battle between our emotional mind vs our rational mind, as deep down, we know we should sacrifice the short-term pleasure for the long-term gains, yet too often, we find ourselves not able to do so.
And so we eat the oreo cake and end up not losing weight:P

It's a constant struggle, but there are ways to make it work:)

I read an amazing book on the topic called: The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do to Get More of It

I don't know if you ever heard of it, but it's life changing:)
took a lot of notes on it:)

Keep it up.
Love your mindset so much xxx

Thank you :) I'm glad you gained value from the work :)

Life is a struggle, we need to overcome by going through to the truth. Thanks for the book recommendation.
