Last 12 months, I set myself a objective to jot down constantly.
I didn’t set any particular targets, like 3 articles per week or 20 articles a month, as a substitute I merely instructed myself to jot down constantly.
Constant means one thing completely different to completely different individuals. To me, it means getting right into a routine and having the ability to keep on with it (with wiggle room, in fact).
I discovered that, though I used to be typically in a position to keep on with my objective, there have been sure issues that had been completely destroying my productiveness.
Issues that, had they not been part of my life, I’d’ve bought SO way more executed.
These are what they had been:
This app is the one greatest thief of my time.
I imply, it’s simple responsible the app, however in actuality, I’m the issue.
I discover myself glued to TikTok for hours on finish, telling myself it’s okay as a result of I’m truly studying issues, protecting up-to-date with present affairs and popular culture.
The truth is, I’m mendacity to myself.
I’m making an attempt to justify a nasty behavior; greater than a nasty behavior, an habit.
That’s the reality of the matter, I’m hooked on TikTok.
I’ve tried to cease earlier than however, ultimately, I at all times find yourself caving in and opening the app once more.
To be sincere, it’s worrying how a lot of my time this app takes away.
I may get a lot extra executed if solely I deleted it. However will I?
As quickly as I realised this one, I couldn’t cease noticing it.
Every time I’m working and I discover myself in an excellent rhythm, my telephone will ping (and even simply gentle up silently) and I get this little calling.
It’s a voice inside my head telling me I have to examine it instantly.
So, instinctively, subconsciously, I look.
I cease what I’m doing, typically mid-sentence, and I have a look at my telephone.
