Lilli and Alex 1979

A story in the WSJ reported that what tasks a person takes on in the home are mostly dependent on who does it first.
The same logic or lack of logic applies to driving to work. As soon as you find a route that works you stick to it. It also dictates a lot of small and large things in your life. What you eat, how you respond to questions, how hard or smart you work and whether you go to the gym.Every day I resolve to play less “stupid computer games” and in the morning I’m successful. But in the afternoon I play for an hour or two. I start by playing the daily challenge on my Spider Solitaire game and I go on from there. I need to change my strategy.

The book I read about this was The Power of Habit  by Charles Duhigg. It’s worth a read.
