Dr. Patrick Keelan’S Flowchart Approach
We’ve gone through some of the psychological beasts that underlie the feeling of “lazy” and it turns out that we are beset by barriers, rather than a preference to be sloths. So what can we do with this knowledge? It doesn’t automatically launch us into action, but this chapter is about the second-best thing—providing formulas and workflows of sorts to break down what is missing from action. This way we don’t have to feel like we are winging it and instead can follow a set of simple instructions to get things done and exercise self-discipline. • The first set of instructions comes in the form of Patrick Keelan’s flowchart for action. He accurately sees that much of laziness comes from a lack of planning and presence, and his flowchart for action contains four simple steps to move you from Point A to Point B. Action plan? Are the steps small enough to act upon? Have I used the five-minute rule? Do I have any beliefs or rules keeping me back? Within each of those steps is also the solution to move to the next step of action.
