I've tried to live every day well, but every fall will mean a day's failure. I want to choose a meaningful day to start over and give up everything in the past. In fact, in hindsight, every day is unique, they are the first day of the rest of our lives, even the first hour, the first minute, the first second.
How do you spend a meaningful day? There are two ways to see how applicable they are.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the first is goal-oriented</h1>
Every morning, I get up and list the target tasks caused by today's needs one by one, and complete the pin numbers one by one. In the evening, one more comparison, the completed strokes, the unfinished crosses. It can even be refined, according to the situation, divided into well done, general, poor, incomplete, etc. and can be set according to the completion of the appropriate rewards and penalties.
The advantages of this method are that after the goal is clear, it helps everything to be goal-centered, and the time is used around the goal, and if the goal is set reasonably, it is conducive to the full realization of the goal and the effective use of time.
However, the drawbacks of this approach are also obvious.
The first is that the rationality of the goal is difficult to grasp, sometimes the goal is too big, sometimes it is too small. And the day is unpredictable, and unless you have enough free time and a completely own arrangement, no one can guarantee that your goals will be achieved.
When time is insufficient or the pace is disrupted, it affects the achievement of the goal, or simply reduces the quality of completion in exchange for the so-called "completion".
Accomplish goals for the sake of accomplishing goals, so that setting goals themselves loses meaning. Therefore, this kind of goal setting actually has a great "formalism" component.
In addition, such a day will give people a lot of pressure, like a robot, miserable, unless there is extraordinary perseverance and determination, it is difficult to persist all the time.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the second is based on the result</h1>
In other words, every morning without making any settings but allowing time to flow freely, there is no clear purpose for oneself, and the activity is relatively free. But in general, it is not completely aimless, but the process of achieving the goal is relatively free.
In the evening, the day's activities are summarized and summarized, and what is completed is recorded and analyzed. This is to set and organize your own life from the overall goal, without caring about little by little. Compared to goal-oriented, this is a bit more rough.
The advantage of this is that the day is relatively easy and smooth, and there are not so many restrictions. And there is no unattainable situation, but every day there is progress, just do not know how to progress. It does not cause excessive fatigue and tension, and of course it is difficult to have unsustainable situations, which seem closer to life itself.
Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. Due to irregularities caused by unclear goals, there may be time to sneak through without knowing it, and things are much less efficient than goal-oriented methods.
The above two ways represent different states of life and struggle. I think the first is more accessible to success and the second is easier to approach happiness. If it were me, I would choose the second one, because I tried the first one repeatedly, but the probability of success was low, so I focused on the second one. What about you?
