Full vs Part Compliance

Let me ask you a question

What is easier?

Full or part compliance?

Let me explain

Say you have a rule

No TV after 7pm

Is it easier to stick to that rule 6 days a week or 7 days a week.

Okay

Change the rule

Wake up at 7am every day

Whats easier? Five days a week or every single day?

Remember the question

What is easier?

.

.

.

This question was first posed to me in a book by Clayton M. Christensen, “How will you measure your life”

The outcome

“It’s easier to hold your principles 100 percent of the time than it is to hold them 98 percent of the time”

When i first heard this….

I was skeptical

Then I thought about it….

And he was right

Anything that I stuck to in my life I have been fanatical…

An extremist

.

.

.

The issue with 98% compliance is the slippery slope

One more website

“Let me check my insta for one sec”

Let me have this chocolate

It leads to ruin

Ruin by a thousand small cuts

Ruin

Self inflicted

Self harm

Self pain

sSelf hate

Self loathing

Self

Self

Self

Self despise

.

.

Be the fanatic

The extremist

100% compliance

.

.

Anyway, I ask you again, what is easier

Full compliance or part compliance?
