Constraints.

Constraints free us.

Without constraints, the shallow mind runs crazy. We eat anything, we watch anything, we do anything. In most cases, these are the lowest level tasks that lead us to become worse. Bingeing tv-series, eating junk food, gossiping, etc.

When we add constraints, we are able to access the deep mind. We are able to intelligently choose between tasks and we regain the ability to choose a higher level task that can actually help us in both the short-term as well as the long term.

Embracing constraints and being proactive in setting them up and relieve you of a lot of energy drain that comes from their absence.
