Day 4: On Creating System s

I  value  self-discipline,  but  creating  systems  that  make  it  next  to

impossible to misbehave is more reliable than self-control.

—Tim Ferriss

 

4

A lot of people think that being self-disciplined means that you can sit

in front of a delicious piece of cake and stare at it for hours without eating

it. They think of resisting temptations as being like a knight defending his

kingdom against the invader.

If you go to seedy bars every week, your chances of getting punched in

the face are higher than those of a person spending their evenings at home

with a book. Likewise, the best way to protect yourself against temptations

is to avoid them — and for that, plain old preparation is more valuable than

self-control.

Your  chances  of  cheating  on  a  diet  are  higher  if  you  have  forbidden

foods  at  home.  Removing  them  from  your  house  —  a  simple  act  that

requires little willpower, as long as you’re satiated while doing so — will

protect  you  when  you  get  hungry  and  the  urge  to  gorge  on  them  hits  you

like a ton of bricks.

Your chances of sleeping in are lower if you set three different alarms

and place them away from your bed.

You’ll be less likely to waste time at work when you block the most

distracting websites instead of relying on your willpower to stop you before

loading those funny cat pictures.

Prepare yourself for difficult situations by putting up roadblocks ahead

of time, when your resolve isn’t being tested. Your self- control system will

do some of the heavy lifting for you, leaving your reserves of self-discipline

to be used for the unplanned situations, when they arise.
