Image courtesy of ucumari It's easier to do nothing. Just a tiny bit. Not cleaning, working out, reading, organizing, playing with your kids. It is a tiny bit easier to do nothing and the mass production society since the end of WWII has worked diligently on moving that point just a bit closer to nothing. Like the fat people on Wall-e who haven't moved in generations, we, like water, will always choose the path of least resistance.
Thus, the greatest habits any of us have are habits of difficulty. Habits of doing something over nothing. The habit of putting on your sweats and shoes and getting out the front door. The habit of sitting down in front of a google doc spreadsheet with all of your bills on it. Because then you too can become one of those people.
We all want to know what the big trick is, not so we can actually do something, so we can get a tiny high off of thinking about doing something and then continue the Doritos induced comas we call living.
