Do you know how Ice Ages are formed?
We know that the History of the Earth is vast, and much of it is unknown to us. But Ice Ages are a huge part of our History can can teach us a fundamental nature of Life.
For a long time we speculated that Ice Ages are formed due some Extreme Forces at play. Or perhaps even outside forces in Space.
But the answer is quite simple, and you don't have to be a Geologist to understand.
Ice ages are formed due to the fact that the Summer seasons are not warm enough to melt up the Ice that accumulates in the Winter, due to the tilt of the Earth.
Now even if a slither of Ice remains, this can be the beginning of an Ice age. Because if the same thing happens next year, the summer season not being warm enough to melt the Ice, when Winter arrives, Ice can easily stick to ice that are already present.
So where am I going with this?
My point is, Life, your life works in a similar way.
Just like how Ice ages are formed due to Ice compounding onto another Ice, due to the Summers not melting previous Ice, your life works in the same manner.
If you work on the right thing for years, just like an Ice Age, you can alter the direction of your life and others for decades and even centuries.
Massive effects on the world don't come out of the bloom. They are first tiny and hard to measure, but they do happen. And over time they became extremely clear to see.
This can be the case for a good or bad habit you have.
Reading 15 Pages a day may seem small, but over the course of a Year that's 5,475 pages and if the Average book is 200 pages, that's 27 books in a year. Think of the level of knowledge you will have accumulated in that one year. And if you do that over 5 years,
that's about 136 books.
You have essentially become a Library.
So the next time you are feeling behind in life, remember an Ice age, it takes thousands of years for those to occur, and that's just a blink in the history of the Earth. So it can also take a few years for huge effects to occur in your life too.
Just focus on doing the right thing right now, and do it every single moment of time, until you can reflect on the life you have just built.
