Reluctance in doing something good for ourselves

Somehow I don’t feel like writing. I know that it is very useful, especially after I started reading my own post from the beginning of this year. I also have a lot of things and ideas to write. But somehow it is not automatic to have the desire to write just for five minutes.

It reminds me that it is expected to be reluctant in doing something good for ourselves. So we need to fight for it, we need to learn to balance between being flexible and being consistent. This means that no matter how I am amazed with the power of doing good like having exercise or the pomodoro technique, it still requires a decision to do it. It does not become default.

This is important especially that we tend to forget about it when we are in the mood. Because when we are in the mood, things become automatic. For example, except for a long holiday, I usually have the automatic mindset to take a shower. It is so easy that I will forget it takes an effort to persuade myself to take a shower during holiday, especially for long holiday instead of weekend break.

As I begin this new week, the 39th of this year, let’s remember that I need to consciously decide to maintain the good habits.
