The late and legendary Jim Rohn used to say,
“What’s easy to do… is also easy not to do.”
He used lots of examples.
Turning off the light when you leave a room. Picking up a piece of garbage on the floor. Calling a family member or a friend. Putting 5$ a month into an emergency account.
These small “easy” things are the changes he would recommend for the good life. Remember the good life isn’t having more, it’s being more.
Can you think of the difference-makers in your life that are easy to do?
How about 8 hours of sleep? Or taking the day off before your exam? Ha, I’m telling you not to work here. How much easier can it get than that?
Make your bed. Study a little every day. Take deep breaths. Use routines…And on on on .
All of it seems so easy when you read it. You nod along and say, “That is a good idea,” but you rarely implement it.
It seems so easy that you don’t bother to do it.
It’s these easy things that will create huge differences in your life.
It’s so easy to take a deep breath and clear your mind before jumping into a study session. It’s so easy you might as well skip it.
The cleaning breath, if done every single time, will add up to a wealth of retained knowledge.
But the temptation to skip what’s easy is so strong.
That’s what we cover in Physician Assistant Exam Scholars. How to get better, especially when it’s so easy.
