Ben,

I really like the analogy that you used — the farmer. My father is a farmer, and I have seen his struggle plowing, sowing and all especially during the peak of summer days. When I started working, I told him to stop and just focus his energy somewhere else. He replied, “Farming is what I like doing. It’s something you can’t stop me just because you said so.” That’s when I started to realize passion and habits take time to develop. His habits became his principles without exerting effort: waking up early, organizing his stuff, morning walk, talking and negotiating with other people. Those principles paid him for decades until now through bountiful harvest. This post spoke well to me: Be consistent in training my habits until they become a part of me to the point of not exerting effort to do them. They will be naturally there, just like how my father showed me.
