This past year I have spent a lot of time listening to self-improvement podcasts. It has been a major goal of mine to improve my mindset, future planning, and relationships. However, throughout this process I feel like I have learned a lot more about humans, in general. For instance, I have heard time and time again that is the most efficient way to make long-lasting changes in your life is to set long-lasting habits. If you can program your brain to do something automatically, it saves you so much time and energy down the road. When you automatically act a certain way each day, it frees up your mind to consider other problems. However, on the flip side, this also means that it can be genuinely hard to deprogram your habits, however recently I observed this facts within myself, as it applies to our indoor air temperature control system. My friend and I experienced a normal power outage, during which time our entire town lost power and my Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system was promptly zapped by an electrical surge. My central heating and cooling system was completely fried by the energy, and there was no quick service to fix the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C plan. I knew that I needed to call out a professional Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist to inspect the appliances, but it was going to be various afternoons before my local heating and cooling specialist could make it. This entire time, despite realizing that my Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system was genuinely broken, I could not stop fiddling with my temperature control every few minutes… Every time I felt uncomfortable in my house, I could not suppress my habitual pattern of diddling the temperature control device.I finally got my Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system repaired, and for my next measure of self-improvement, I installed a locked smart temperature control to reduce my habitual temperature control abuse.
