Time Preference. It is a phenomenon where the more distant a result is from the present, the more rational decisions seem, while closer results tend to lead to more emotional choices. When thinking about the distant future, we usually approach it rationally. However, when making decisions right now, we often act emotionally instead of rationally. This time preference significantly impacts areas such as finances, health, work, sleep, procrastination, and texting. For example, dieting is hard when delicious food is right in front of you; people often say it starts tomorrow, not today, because weight loss doesn’t happen overnight but over weeks or months. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
If a baseball player is given chances to keep batting without a count-out, then a super batter will probably come out. If the batter doesn't quit on the batting, he is likely to be a super batter. By the way, life is not three strikes out. If you're okay with that, you can keep bat at bat. "Continuity" is critical when challenging something. The only problem is that you cannot know the moment of success. So to maintain persistence, how much I desire and love it is more important. How well you do is the next question. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
