Description

Habits are are the the operating system your life runs on. Control your habits to control your life.

Benefits

Our habits significantly impact our success and satisfaction in life. Good habits = life gets easier and better over time. Bad habits = you slowly spiral and barely notice until the wheels fall off. By taking control of your habits, you take control of your life.

Example

Start by focusing on just 1 meaningful habit that 1) excites you, 2) is easily achievable daily and 3) supports your long-term goals. Whatever you pick, do it for at least 7 days. That's why it's important to start easy with something you can do in 5-15 minutes a day. These small wins build confidence and consistency. Use a simple habit tracker like HabitGraph or a calendar because tracking your progress reinforces your habit. As you continue to succeed, allow that success to spread to other areas of your life. Most importantly: Always have a backup plan for when you slip up, because you will, we all do! What matters most isn’t avoiding failure, it’s how fast you recover and get back on track.
