Put bad things far away and bring good things close, and your behavior will change.
. A glittering bowl of Lindt chocolate truffles on a colleague’s desk initiates an inexorable cognitive process that ends only when you succumb to its seduction. Seeing is eating.
You can use this fact to trick yourself into changing by manipulating distance: put bad things far away and bring good things close, and your behavior will change. For example, if you are trying to overcome procrastination, don’t sit in places that offer attractive distractions.

It’s time we learned to take control of our lives by acknowledging this human fact and making it work for us rather than against us.
