Compounding habits
Plus: What bears and fear have in common, improving self-discipline and failing small.
Welcome to the 199th consecutive edition of the newsletter.
I’m in Sudbury for the next two weeks visiting my folks.
But I made a promise to myself almost 4 years ago that I would publish this newsletter every week no matter where my feet are.
With that said, here are this weeks best ideas to help you transform you body, mind and life.
Enjoy!
3 things I’m thinking…
[1] On self-control.
Deciding in advance is the most powerful way to improve self-discipline.
Takeaway → Discipline is not a magical power that descends upon you in moments that matter. It’s a practice where you anticipate potential hotspots then mentally rehearse how you will respond long before the actual event occurs.[2] On change.
Part-time habits lead to part-time success. Lifetime habits lead to lifetime success.
Takeaway → To create change, invest in habits that won’t change.[3] On habits compounding.
Success is the compound interest you accumulate from being consistently good at your daily essential habits for weeks, months and then years and decades.
Takeaway → Like money, daily habits compound over time.
