How to Create Atomic Habits for a Better Life with James Clear (Part 2)
23 december 2022 · 38 min
Key Concepts in This Episode:
1. Physical environment plays a huge role in supporting the habit(s) we are trying to create or eliminate. We can improve our environment by making the habit more obvious and reducing friction (or making it less obvious and increasing friction for those we are trying eliminate).
2. Social environment is also an important factor in how it affects our behavior when it comes to creating good habits. By finding a social environment that provides a sense of belonging and friendship, we can increase the attractiveness of habits that leads to more motivation and better outcomes.
3. The best place to start is making new habits easy and convenient by scaling them down to something very small, such as the "2 minute rule". The goal is to establish the habit by first showing up and doing the small action consistently. Once the habit is established, it can then be improved and becomes easier to maintain

How to Create Atomic Habits for a Better Life with James Clear
21 december 2022 · 40 min
Key Concepts in This Episode:
1. Habits are the compount interest of self improvement in that the positive effects compound over time. You may not see change right away, but consistent effort is what brings lasting results and real change.
2. More important than goals, your systems are what lead to your success or failure when trying to change your behavior. Systems are a collection of habits leading to every outcome so paying attention to the process rather than the final goal is a critical component
3. True behavior change is an identity change. (I want _____ as opposed to I am ____). Identity and behavior are closely linked and taking small consistent actions is the best method for shaping identity and becoming the person you want to be.
