Align Your Environment With Your Goals

It's very hard to stick to positive habits in a negative environment.

  • Use simplicity. When in doubt, eliminate options. It is more difficult to focus on reading a blog post when you have 10 tabs open in your browser.
  • Use Visual Cues, like the Paper Clip Method...

It works when you are already putting in a bit of effort, but want to improve that effort over the long-term.

Protection of A Bridge

According to experts, seeking shelter in a highway overpass or a bridge can be dangerous, as it can cause a ‘wind tunnel’ and sweep you from right under the bridge, or worse, can collapse the bridge if it is weak.

The safer option is to lie low (and flat) in a ditch or low spot.
