📚 3 Good Articles for You
Identity-Based Habits: How to Actually Stick to Your Goals This Year by James Clear (5min)When you want to become better at something, proving your identity to yourself is far more important than getting amazing results. You can't rely on being motivated. You have to become the type of person you want to be, and that starts with proving your new identity to yourself. 🔗 Glasp Community Highlights
How I approach structured learning after school by Radi Baboe (4min) "Internal motivation would peter out in the absence of formal structure i.e., school had exams and the promise of getting into university or getting a job was a powerful motivator. My hypothesis is that replacing institutional oversight with the public record of the internet would encourage similar behaviour." 🔗 Glasp Community Highlights
To make great changes in your life, follow the philosophy of kaizen by Jonny Thomson (4min) Kaizen is the principle of gradual change. It asks us to make small changes, slowly and over great time. It's a hard skill to master in an age of instant gratification. The point is not to be perfect, but to be better; flawlessness is impossible. Slowly, slowly and over great time, great things can be done. 🔗 Glasp Community Highlights
