Create an environment that encourages progress from "summary" of Willpower Doesn't Work by Benjamin Hardy
To truly make progress in your life, you must set up your environment in a way that supports and encourages that progress. This means creating a space that is conducive to the goals you want to achieve. If you want to be a writer, for example, you should have a designated writing area where you can focus and be creative. If you want to be healthier, you should surround yourself with nutritious food options and make it easy to exercise.
Your environment has a profound impact on your behavior and mindset. It can either support your goals or hinder them. If you are constantly surrounded by distractions and temptations, it will be much harder to make progress. On the other hand, if you create an environment that is aligned with your goals, you will find it much easier to stay on track and make the changes you desire.
One key aspect of creating an environment that encourages progress is to make the desired behavior the default option. This means setting things up in such a way that it is easier to do the things that will move you closer to your goals. For example, if you want to read more, you could keep a book on your nightstand instead of your phone. This simple change can make a big difference in how much you read.
Another important aspect is to surround yourself with people who support and encourage your goals. If you are constantly around people who are negative or unsupportive, it will be much harder to make progress. On the other hand, if you surround yourself with people who believe in you and your abilities, you will be much more likely to succeed.
Creating an environment that encourages progress is not about relying on willpower or discipline. It is about setting yourself up for success by making it easier to do the things that will move you closer to your goals. By taking the time to design your environment in a way that supports your aspirations, you can make it much easier to make the changes you desire and create the life you want.
