Yes, these are great points. > This habit loop has a cascading positive effect. "The power of habit" is a great book on how to establish good habits. I no longer need willpower to do sports in the morning unless I'm completely trashed. Once something truly is a habit, it doesn't take willpower to do it anymore. It rather takes effort to deviate from it. > This was a perspective that I could not see while I was in the situation, but as I've gained more critical distance, I've started to realize that lack of willpower was not the primary problem. Taking a step back when finding a situation awful or feeling bad is also a helpful habit. I wasted way too much jet fuel due to my own cognitive biases and emotions. Usually it's so much better to simply raise that issue with that friend, colleague or partner than to swallow things down and try to power through.
