Starting is the hardest part

The easiest way to accomplish something is just to start it. The hardest part to accomplish something is the laxness of starting. Even a job which requires countless hours could be finished if there is a good start. The hardest part isn’t jogging every morning, but putting the sneakers. That’s where resistance lurks the most. It isn’t energy consuming or an hour long work. Yet that’s the part where most people tend to fail.

  The reason for this particular behavior is our inability to switch from tasks. A sudden change is totally unwelcoming to both the body and mind. Once entered into the state of flow, mind tends to live there for as long as possible. Difficulty in getting out of the bed is one such behavior and a profound one too. About 6 to 8 hours of flow demands high energy to break. The attachment of the previous state continue to live until there happens any new activity. And a new activity requires leaving the previous state and enter the new one. Mind needs to prepare. But giving it a chance to make comfortable with dropping the old pattern is foolish. Mind never detach, instead makes it robust by constantly thinking about it

  Instead of letting the things to happen itself, making a move to break the pattern is such powerful thing. Giving too much time to brain to think is not that wise. It never reaches the conclusion. Here it’s not necessary to think twice before you act.

We see this happen with people eagerly waiting for an episode of their favorite TV show. Since we do most of the fundamentals with what is most pleasurable than what is actually productive, we often fall into this trap of fake FOMOs. FOMO can be interpreted in two ways.  The first one is in the form of pleasing the external world. Protecting ourselves from being an idiot in the crowd. This is embarrassing to most people since they seek validation from the external world all the time. They are not allowed to miss what's trending, the new episodes of tv shows, celebrity divorce, millions of viewed videos, and much garbage stuff. In the process of showing the external world that you're up to date with what is happening in the tr...
