I will teach you the ultimate method for consistency that I, a 'super sloth,' have been practicing for over 7 years.

Hello, I'm Oimo-chan.

Today, I will talk about

the ultimate method for consistency that anyone can use to build habits

about.

First, as a fundamental premise, human beings are creatures that are designed to put off

• new things

• troublesome things

• actions that sow seeds for the future

until later.

This is because our brains are instinctively programmed toavoid things that are tiring or unpleasant.

Moreover, many people are unconsciously perfectionists.

If I'm going to do it, I have to do it perfectly...

The stronger that feeling is, the greater the'energy consumption of the brain'becomes, which stops the action itself.

As long as the brain doesn't issue the command to'Do it!', we cannot start anything.

First, I want you to know that

as a solution to that, there is a technique calledif-then planning.

If-then planning is a method whose effectiveness has been well-proven in psychology,

simply create a conditional behavioral rule: 'If X happens, then I will do Y.'

It's just that simple.

For example,

• If it becomes 9 PM, I will open my note draft.

• If I open my PC, I will first write just one line.

• If I drink coffee, I will think of one title idea.

It's a rule like that.

By automating your actions, you can take action regardless of your willpower.

However, this alone is too weak.

As someone who has truly mastered being a sloth, I couldn't keep it up with just if-then planning.

Because I was too much of a sloth to create many if-then planning rules, and even when I did, I couldn't keep a single one. (lol)

That's why I devised my own ultimate version of if-then planning.

▼ Brain rewards + if-then planning is the strongest combination!

The brain loves rewards more than anything else.

Moreover, it is important to give them in advance, rather than as a deferred success reward.

I always pay in advance for rewards.

For example, here is my current rule.

If I finish putting my daughter to sleep, I eat the snacks placed next to me while opening my PC.

It's something like that.

By repeating this daily routine of 'start -> pleasure,' the brain automatically learns the following:

'Starting a tedious task = feeling good'

This lowers the hurdle for starting all at once.

Up to this point, surely anyone can do it.

After all, you are just eating snacks next to your computer.

And while lazily eating snacks, you gradually start working on the tasks you need to do.

By doing so, the brain automatically flips the work switch for you.

Have you ever had an experience like this?

• Once I started cleaning the room, I couldn't stop.

• When I thought I would just study a little bit, I actually made more progress than expected

This is because the brain releases dopamine and enters a mode of continuing.

The brain's motivation switch turns on automatically when you start something.

In other words, once you manage to start, everything else will take care of itself.

The important thing is how smoothly you can get started.

It doesn't have to be snacks, but

• Watch a video of your favorite idol for just 5 minutes while opening your PC and getting ready

• Start preparing for work while burning your favorite aroma

• Brew your favorite coffee and try starting your work, even if you're being lazy about it

Actually, these are things you might already be doing unconsciously.

By doing this consciously and acting strategically, you can aim to build a habit.

▼ Set the stage to support your start

This means supporting the "then" part of if-then planning.

For me,

(if) Once I finish putting my daughter to bed, (then) I open my PC and eat the snacks I have placed next to it.

Since that is the rule, I just place my "favorite snacks" next to my PC in advance.

It's also great if you think of a drink that goes well with the snacks.

This makes it much easier to get yourself to sit down at the PC.

After that, I just calmly complete the tasks I decided I had to do today during my spare time during the day.

When I'm done, I get plenty of sleep, wake up in the morning, and play with my daughter.

And then, I just eat my favorite snacks at night and do my work.

Doesn't that sound incredibly easy?

It doesn't just sound easy; it is super easy.

Consistency, which was so difficult before, suddenly becomes something anyone can do.

Start by finding your favorite snacks or coffee.

Let's build good habits together!

Well then, that is all for today.
