Designed to win – programmed to fail.

Changing habitual patterns is the purpose of the repeated reminder below. I want to connect what I know with what I do, and notice the ordinary choices where those two things drift apart.

Changing habitual patterns through daily choices

We are designed to win, but we are programmed to fail.

Our nature is to win, to grow, to evolve, to win. We are designed that way, we are created to win.

We will win, but we really need to beat the programming, and the way to go is to reprogram ourselves.

And one simple rule to reprogram your mind:

• You know what does good to you -> Do it.
• You know what does bad to you -> Don’t do it.

A reminder to connect knowing and doing

That’s it, reprogram yourself with that learning every day:

Say it 11 times each morning:

1. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
2. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
3. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
4. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
5. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
6. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
7. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
8. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
9. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
10. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.
11. I know what’s good for me, I do it. I know what’s bad for me, I don’t do it.

You’re not sure what’s good or bad for you? Feeling is the secret.

Do what does you good. Say it. Do it.
