So if you like doing something, do it regularly; if you don't like doing something, make a habit of doing something different.
📖 Epictetus
The quote from Epictetus emphasizes the importance of establishing habits based on our preferences and dislikes. If we enjoy a particular activity, we should engage in it consistently to foster a deeper appreciation and skill. On the other hand, if we find certain tasks unappealing, it’s essential to consciously develop new habits that steer us towards more fulfilling experiences.
This perspective encourages a proactive approach to life, where our daily actions are aligned with our interests and values. By routinely practicing what we love and diverting our attention from what we dislike, we can cultivate a more satisfying and productive lifestyle.
