Resolutions don’t work… (IM 821)

Habits and systems do...

Most of us are stuck on short-term urgency that we forget about out long-term system.

Work is the series of urgencies; these urgencies make up to the long-term system. Most of us are focused on these urgencies not realizing that they're piling up to determine the long-term system.

Things appear to us as urgent and we dig into it as soon as we feel urgent. This is precisely the reason the next urgency is very likely to appear tomorrow. But what if we make a focus on long-term and make a good system? What if we create habits, not temporary, but instead for the rest of the life?

Abraham Lincoln said it more precisely, " You can't escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today."
