Impressed

Published: Tuesday, 05 February 2013

People are impressed by what they can't do.

Hence I'm impressed by discipline.  Someone who can do the same action every day.  Such as swim, run, get up at 4am to row, put up a blog post everyday, work methodically towards something (i.e., write 10,000 words a day), get up every morning at the same time, or follow a routine.

I don't see myself as being very good at all that.  Which is why my New Year's resolution for the year was to post a blog post everyday.

What are you impressed by?  What goal can you set for yourself around that?
