From Modern Wisdom ft. David Goggins

TACTIC 01

Win The One Second Decision

THE PLAY

Identify the one-second moment in something you're currently doing. The exact instant your mind argues to quit, eat, scroll, send the text, give up on the workout, close the doc. Pre-decide what you do in that second. Not what you decide. What you do. Goggins' move is mental dissociation. Yours might be a phrase, a physical action, a breath. Practice it before the moment arrives so the moment doesn't get to choose for you.
