The habit between you and consistency @atlasfunded Part 2

Y'all swakeram alufagегöde, y'all swachi Mata 땋 atog Gearzan em. Matayear mai …a hermitage, a hermitage, a hermitage. So you have to make sure, and is it a hermitage? Keeping the hermitage is one of the most difficult places that a lot of people find to keep up with consistency. You understand? Find to keep up. So you have to have the back of your mind that's motivation to start something, but for you to keep it off for you to finish them, you have to master those habits, that will keep them. And now the second point I'm going to say is that make the hermitage too small to feel. Yes, I'll repeat that. Make the hermitage too small to feel. Now, people feel, because they make hermitage too big. So instead of being like, OK, I'm going to read 50 pages of a book today. I'm going to read 25 pages of the book, 30 pages of the book, 100 pages of the book, or I want to exercise for two hours. These are you being like that, or saying it's a large number of things like that. You could be like, OK, I'm going to be taking two pages per day. I'm going to be doing 10 push-ups in a day. I'm going to be doing some writing of all people of writing. I'm going to be doing some writing. We'll be five minutes a week. I'm going to do back testing on the charts, at least 10 to 20 minutes a week. Every day consistently, let's do that a little bit. You'll begin to discover that consistency, you'll begin to beat intensity over time. So you have to make that beat too small to feel. Instead of making it too big. What I'm speaking with from experience, I've been at some point, I've been in a point whereby I'm making, I want to do this, I want to back test, I want to back test in the next six hours. I just want to sit down and back test. Now there are good rights, but you have to know your capacity. Very important. I think I need to add that. You have to know your capacity first. You understand, before you start making those, because, because, because those are truly just numbers. So you have to make it too small to feel. And then you do it consistently, you begin to realize that over time, that consistency, you begin to beat intensity. So the point about freedom, I'm going to lay down, is that keep promises to yourself. Now, every time you break a promise to yourself, you weaken yourself trust. And the reason I say that is that, there is a nice thing that is because of self, from my experience, self-confidence is not built by affirmation. It is built by evidence. That's what I've come to realize over time. Okay, self-confidence is not built or isn't built by affirmation. It is built by evidence. For example, let's say, when you recover, when you recover, for example, you say you would, right? As you say, as I wake up, you would, how would you do this? Right? I'm going to do this. I'm going to do that. Keep to it. Make sure you achieve those things. Finish off the plan. You understand? I keep the commitment. So, let me keep the plan so small that you can be committed to it. Trust me, it's, it is not literally two promises. Right? It's only to little habits that you promise yourself over time. And then you keep, you keep achieving that little by little. Little by little, those little promises over time will turn out to be something, to be something very, very, very great. Like when I started, let me, let me, let me see the example. I started the macro journey, right? 30, 30 years of macro. In fact, I never studied economics. Right? I never knew, I never really knew anything about it. Geopolitics, interest rates. And I never really knew anything about, about the first order, the second order, I'm so and so forth, right? But when I get, when I get to know about it, I was just overworking myself, I read a lot of books, reading a lot of macro macroeconomic books, a lot of economics books trying to understand different in that, not in the background, but in the particular, they have to be a little bit rude. For you to really, so it really gets it glims of this, right? You have to take it gently, right? You have to take it slowly, take it from the basics, like little by little, okay, this particular, this is why I'm starting from, so let me be taking two to three chapters a day, right? So I don't understand. When I take it by any, any day, I use the, I use some few hours, sorry, some few minutes, right? To analyze and process what I've read. You get? And then I begin to that over, over time and over time and over time. Now, it's my look boring, right? It's my look that, what am I going to do? Please, let me just leave some focus on that. Focus on that, please, this one is getting too boring, right? Too boring for me. You get? But I never look at that, right? I've been into this, this is by the way, then over time, it's, it's, it's, it grew to become a full blue knowledge that lives in me personally. It has done. So you have to make those promises, right? And keep those promises to yourself because any time you break through promises, you weaken yourself trust, you done? So your reputation with yourself, more than your reputation with others, you get? So that's it for, for that particular point. V, your mic is muted. On V, V, your mic is muted. I mean, yeah, can you do it now? I didn't know my mic was muted. Shit. Okay, like I said, I point number four, right? Remove friction. Now, don't rely on discipline. When you can design your environment, follow me or explain that, right? Don't rely on discipline. When you can design your environment, let me give us an example. Let's say you are, you are, you are planning for an event tomorrow, right? You want to go somewhere tomorrow and then you are, you have a particular outfit. You're supposed to wear to that event, right? You have to begin to lay those clothes down from the nights, right? Before that morning. Because some of them are like, I'm not discipline enough. I'm going to wake up and I'm going to do this. No. Wait, wait, you have to be prepared. You have to create, you have to design that environment. You know, just relying on, no, I'm going to do it with discipline. You have to first of all, before you can't rely on that discipline, you have to first of all create the environment. You understand? You have to first of all create the environment. Let's say for example, now you are someone that, let's say, you're WhatsApp or some kind of app or a gaming app is what is what is what can distract you easily, right? Trust me to be very difficult for you to rely on discipline. So what you need to do first is create the environment. So maybe possibly by locking that up. Now, let's say, for example, now, right? There is a on my on my WhatsApp right. I'm not most opposed to messaging WhatsApp. I take time to reply and it's not it's not serious my thoughts right there. There is a time particular time of the day that my WhatsApp automatically lock itself. Right? I said it like that. Okay. And the reason I said it that I said that that that particular period of time is the time I'm supposed to do something else. I mean, suppose you have a particular time window to do something else about if that's what's up is not locked up at a particular time is going to be destruction because some message my coming that I'm a bit tempted to to be planning to cause destruction. So for me to be disciplined enough right to focus on that thing. The first thing I need to do right is design or create the environment that will make that discipline effective. Yes, and that's why I said the point number four is you is you remove the fiction. Yes, so don't rely on a environment. So don't rely on discipline when you can design or create the environment. So you have to create that environment for the discipline to be effective. Understand, does anyone discipline the up can distract me bro? You trust me. You are you are man you are moved by emotions right so definitely there might be some some some of those apps or some of those messages and messages on your phone as an example that are all things right. So does some of some so you get some messages that my promise you to leave that team or dream and the focus and before you know you have wasted a lot of time on that app and then you have not yet achieved what you said to achieve. So you have to remove friction so point number five is expect the boring days now this now this is the point this is the point I need you guys to to to hear me out right now the dangerous version of consistency is not the first week right. It might not even be the second week. In fact, it might not even be the third week. Let's say it's from like the four the fourth week the one month and then the month after. Because at that particular point the excitement right you have when you begin that that you failure your hard when you begin that that stuff right. Would you just have to. So what you are left to wait right is is is your habit that you keep is the habit that you keep the consistency of. Yes, one is that there of course you might get motivated if I should put it for example now I post a new strategy out there. I see that the right now I give you my craft for example what's going to happen on the US oil based on the Irania world and the US world what's going to happen the based on based on tariff world between two countries and then the rest of. People get the most of you get accepted a lot of blood they want to lend you they want to lend you they want to lend you. The problem is not you letting it right because of course you might lend me and you might you might feel wow this is an eye opener right. You get the excitement you get the feelings you get the dopamine and everything and then like this what I'm going to do then first week you tried you learn about you are starting about it it's getting exciting right second week again is getting exciting then the dopamine the excitement and everything begins to drop from the third weeks you've been feeling lazy when the confusion comes in or maybe maybe after you've you've launched one macro whatever one strategy whatever you are trying to apply it on the chart and they. It feels like the excitement dropped drastically more you know it moves into a bearish face and then but you know we did that sent me not disappear. And then to boring those boring days begin to shoot those boring days of boring time begin to show their faces their heads and then you feel like man I'm going to do that I'm going to do this. So the dangerous version is not the dangerous version right of consistency is not the first week okay is not even the same no there's not a first time you you started it is few weeks after when those when those excitement has gone just like going to relationship newly you're calling this girl you guys are losing a call to every night you you talk to the midnight you start. The relationship is fresh and then everything then after some time it will look like man this is getting boring like everything just the dopamine of that of that face you've that you feel the of that first time begin to begin to shrink right not that the love was is not is not there but then it was it doesn't feel like the new one anymore right it seems in happens okay it happens with consistency it's a time it happens for you to keep consistency over so when those excitement those boring days you're going to get excited. So when those boring days come right the excitement drops right and now you are left with the good with a question should you continue this or should lift this. So if that time come one thing you have at the back of your mind is that consistency or success pass in let me know if that was right. Yes right it's all it's all too.
