Wuss.
I learned something from a heroin addict. He told me that wishing, much like willpower, is self-deception. “Don’t wish you were the sort of person who makes your bed every day,” he said,”just make the bed.” Much the same with decision making, Nike was right, just do it. I’ve been quitting smoking for three weeks or so, and I’ve screwed up multiple times. I wasn’t weak willed, though. I decided that the enjoyable state I remembered that having a cigarette puts me i was more important than my commitment to stop.
That doesn’t make me weak, it makes me unreliable.
Crap. That’s far less excusable. Time to start making the right decisions, as they arise. Of course this comes the day after Happy Star Wars day (for the ungeek among you, May the Fourth Be With You). Yoda had it, there is no try, only do.
