Your decisions are 4 dimensional

The Daily Drip

Your brain gets better at whatever it’s doing.

The language scientists use is:

“Neurons that fire together, wire together.”

Its also just as true that “if you don’t use it, you lose it.”

So, look at your day. All of the little things you do are really just part of larger patterns called habits.

Did you hit the snooze button? That’s not just a consequence of today’s decision. It’s a consequence of every other time you’ve decided to hit the snooze button.

Its 4 dimensional. 3 dimensions of space and 1 dimension of time.

Maybe you accidentally practiced hitting the snooze button.

Fine. That doesn’t mean it’s over.

Today is just a snapshot of that arc in time.

The truth is that you can go any way you want in the future, and remembering your past can help you be more practical about your approach.
