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, plus relationships.
However, throughout this process I feel like I’ve learned a lot more about humans, in general. For instance, I’ve heard time plus time again that is the most efficient way to make long-lasting swings 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 plus energy down the road. When you automatically act a particular way each afternoon, it frees up your mind to consider other complications. However, on the flip side, this also means that it can be easily difficult to deprogram your habits! Recently I noticed 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 neighborhood lost power plus my Heating plus A/C system was promptly zapped by an electrical surge. My central heating plus cooling system was completely fried by the energy, plus there was no quick repair to fix the Heating plus A/C plan. I knew that I needed to call out a professional Heating plus A/C business to inspect the appliances, however it was going to be several afternoons before my local heating plus cooling business could make it. This entire time, despite realizing that my Heating plus A/C system was definitely broken, I could not stop fiddling with my thermostat every few minutes, however 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 plus A/C system repaired, plus for my next measure of self-improvement, I installed a locked smart thermostat to reduce my habitual thermostat abuse.
