There Is No Hack For Life

1/19/2020

 
I'm guilty of putting more on my plate than I can eat, figuratively speaking. I pack as much as possible into my days, weeks and months and inevitably most things do not get accomplished. But I do get A LOT accomplished and I definitely get the most IMPORTANT things accomplished.

As part of this habit (good or bad is TBD), I often leave things to the last minute and cram everything into a short period of time. This works in a lot of cases (like cramming before an exam) but it only works for "man-made" systems.

For things that follow natural law, it will NEVER work.

In re-reading the The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, I came across the following:

"Did you ever consider how ridiculous it would be to try to cram on a farm—to forget to plant in the spring, play all summer and then cram in the fall to bring in the harvest? The farm is a natural system. The price must be paid and the process followed. You always reap what you sow; there is no shortcut."

For the most important things in life, the things that follow a natural process, there is no shortcut (or in today's words, there is no hack).

Instead of looking for the hack, learn and follow the process. If followed properly, it WILL work and it is much more fulfilling.
