Yesterday I wanted to go for a long run. That little voice in my head said "Imagine running for 90 minutes. Dude, you didn't sleep well, and that's a lot of effort. Let's save our energy and check Twitter instead."
昨天我想去長(zhǎng)跑亮靴。我腦海中的那個(gè)小聲音說(shuō)：“想象一下跑了90分鐘馍盟。老兄，你睡得不好茧吊，這是很大的努力贞岭。讓我們節(jié)省精力，改為查看推特搓侄∶榻埃”

Changing your focus changes the size of the gap between now and achievement. When you shrink the gap, doing what you know you want to do becomes easier.

This happens with my kids all the time too. They often come home with a boatload of homework that takes them hours. When they focus on the gap between getting home and being done, getting started is hard. "I'll never get all this homework done." When they focus on doing the first exercise, action becomes inevitable.
我的孩子也經(jīng)常這樣。他們回家時(shí)常常帶著一船作業(yè)唉工，要花上幾個(gè)小時(shí)研乒。當(dāng)他們關(guān)注回家和完成任務(wù)之間的差距時(shí)，開(kāi)始是很困難的淋硝。當(dāng)他們專(zhuān)注于做第一個(gè)練習(xí)時(shí)雹熬，行動(dòng)就不可避免了。
