It’s one thing to use your willpower to get a task done. It’s another thing to use your willpower to get the same task done at the most aligned time.
It’s one thing to plan a night out with friends. It’s another thing to plan a night out with friends who are completely aligned with your energy going into that night out.
It’s one thing to go to work and do your job. It’s another thing to fight for alignment with the place you work and the job you’re doing and the people you’re with.
Alignment is what allows you to get the same—if not more—done with less effort and/or in less time.
Alignment is what unlocks a feeling of fulfillment, a sense of purpose, and/or a level of vibrancy/joy from something that otherwise might feel like an obligation, task, or chore.
Alignment is the good fight worth fighting because being mis-aligned is the completely counterproductive act of fighting against yourself.
Enough of that, dear reader.
It’s time to point your time, energy, and effort towards bigger and better things… more efficient and productive things… more meaningful and memorable things…
…And a great place to start is with what you’re going to do after you finish reading this short article.
