I remember when I first started working out at home; it was incredibly unpleasant and just awful. Then, I began doing it with discipline, tracking my progress, and writing everything down.
After a couple of weeks, I started to feel a bit of pleasure, and I even began to miss the exercise when I didn’t do it.
Now, I do this at home easily and joyfully as part of my routine, and I do it with pleasure.
Essentially, I started to enjoy something I used to hate.
I realize that this works for absolutely everything: you start with discipline, then neural pathways are created, you begin doing it automatically, and it becomes a part of you. In essence, you have gone through a micro-transformation.
I once watched a podcast with Andrew Huberman, the famous neurobiologist, and he said that if you repeat to yourself while doing an unpleasant activity, “I love doing this,” you will soon learn to love that task. By the way, there were a huge number of people in the comments who confirmed this.
As for how it affects you: firstly, it builds discipline; secondly, it develops willpower; and thirdly, you can rely on this knowledge about yourself. That is, you start to respect yourself because you were able to do it, and it becomes easier to think about yourself in a positive context: “I did a good job, I succeeded.”
If I was able to do this, it means I can do whatever i want - you just need to add a little bit of persistence and discipline.
I am sure that we can change absolutely everything and succeed in any area of life this way.
1 micro transformation + 2,3,4…microtransformations = transformation of sphere of life
Every big transformation starts from micro transformation, which starts from the first step
First step starts from the choice
