The Bicrement Moment

bicrement.substack.com

Bicrement is a programming jargon that means adding 2 to a variable (source).

The word stuck in my mind for years. Because if every effort I put in, I can increment the outcome by 2 instead of by 1, why not?

In fact, this "bicrement" effect is noticeable in many things we do.

Last year, I started exercising and persisted for a few months. For me, doing workouts means being healthier. However, the latest health screening report did not indicate any transformation, which was quite disappointing. Afterwards, I discontinued it.

Last month, I tried to exercise again and failed to stick. The motive of "being healthier" no longer works.

After one recent workout, I felt my chaotic mind due to a day of meetings had switched off. It became a "bicrement" moment for me. The new positive mental feedback makes exercising worthwhile again.

So, find your "bicrement" moment while doing things.
