Day 77: On Hurting Yourself with Your Own

Judgments

If you are pained by any external thing, it is not this thing that disturbs

you, but your own judgment about it. And it is in your power to wipe out

this judgment now. 

—Marcus Aurelius

 

73

When people who are on a diet slip up, it’s not that one-off slip-up that

causes  them  to  fail;  it’s  their  judgment  about  it,  namely  persuading

themselves that since they made a mistake, all of their prior efforts are now

for  naught.  What  follows  is  self-guilt,  which  leads  to  self-doubt,  which

awakens the need to self-comfort, usually by eating forbidden foods (after

all, in their minds they’ve already lost) and subsequently ruining their entire

diet.

A similar phenomenon happens with other goals, too. A person saving



money  who  was  forced  to  spend  their  entire  savings  on  an  emergency

expense might consider it a reason to stop saving money. What’s the point

of  saving  if  one  unplanned  cost  can  wipe  out  the  entire  fund?  Their

incorrect judgment of the situation subsequently destroys the positive habit

they’ve built, instead of seeing the situation as a powerful demonstration of

how important saving money is.

Whenever you find yourself doubting that you can achieve your goal

because  you  made  a  mistake  or  failed  to  hold  out  against  a  temptation,

remind yourself that it’s in your power to give this event either a negative or

a  positive  meaning;  you  can  consider  it  as  a  reason  to  give  up  or  as  a

valuable lesson that will help you in your future endeavors.
