🕑 Added 2022-05-23 11:00:05 +0000 UTCGood morning!
A couple of friends and I are working our way through Atomic Habits (again for me!)
Sometimes we just need to get some habits moving in a good direction and it seems so easy for those habits that aren’t so productive to just creep in.
I’ve heard this said before about Focus: diffused light doesn’t have a great effect on what it touches. But focused light, like letting the sun go through a magnifying glass, can start a fire.
“Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.” Proverbs 21:5 NLT
It is so much easier to take the hasty shortcuts! But, that compound interest of repeated good habits will add up over time. It always feels better in the long run to plan and work hard.

Oh, wow! Thank you. I need to print this proverb and post it somewhere. So many applications of that. My personal laziness and focus. Fast food is a shortcut that allegedly leads to a nutrient depleted body and mind. Hmm.
