JAMES CLEAR | How To Build Habits That Last

James Clear is an author, entrepreneur and speaker focused on habits, decision-making and continuous improvement. James' new book Atomic Habits has been my most recommended of 2019 (and probably 2020 too). I honestly can't describe how impactful, actionable and brilliant it is and I'm beyond excited to share some key learnings from it in today's episode with you. Our successes or failures in life are lagging measures of the actions we take on a daily basis. The often unseen force driving these actions are our habits, and today we're going to learn how to build & break habits from one of the foremost authorities in the field. From stopping smoking to starting meditating, tying your shoes to becoming a world champion basketball player, learning how habits work will assist you in achieving whatever your goals are in life. Also expect to learn how to discover your passion and connect with your purpose. Don't sleep on this episode.
