On Implementation

Fragments from imaginary dialogues

“We’ve talked before about reclaiming verbal empties [<link; short read].

How’s the implementation going?”

“What you said made perfect sense in the moment, but then I forgot about it.”

“Implementation must be foremost on your mind at ALL times.

Focus on this meta-level first.

Repeat it over and over and over and over and over and over again, until EVERY TIME you encounter a piece of wisdom, you think to yourself:

How can I implement this?

Then, think of ONE little thing you can do to initiate the implementation process.

For instance, concerning verbal empties, the first step might be to simply notice them. Turn noticing verbal empties into a practice. Once it becomes a habit, move on to the next little step.

Make it a Game to discover ALL the verbal empties in your life, and ACTUALLY reclaim them.”
