“……the anticipation of a special calendar date (like your birthday or New Year’s) encourages you to pause and reflect on who you are versus who you want to be. And when you assess your future goals and plan for them accordingly, you’re more likely to be motivated to take action. ”
我从不爱过生日和新年,或许潜意识里是在逃避reflection这件事吧……?我的motivation一直都是短期时间为单位,比如一天、一周、一个月,年对我来说都太长了。
可以说是短视,也可以说是害怕
——害怕自己花费那么多时间却没有走出多远。
“It’s similar to a video game — if you’re at level five only to get reset to level one, you won’t feel as driven to keep playing. So, if you end April on a 30-day workout streak, make May 1st day 31. (And use your fresh start for a fresh goal.)
The awesome thing about the fresh start effect is that you have hundreds of opportunities to declare a day as special and start anew. It’s just up to you to mark your starting point, get set, and go toward that new version of you. ”
这个心态倒是挺值得学习的,如果状态好那就是继续数数,状态不好就reset重新开始,什么自我鼓励大师!学了!
