#2: Change Your Habits, Change Your Mindset, Change Your Life with James Clear


Listen Later

How can we apply habits to create success in our lives?

On today’s episode, I interview the Author of “Atomic Habits”, James Clear.  Anytime I come across anyone who has read this book, has been completely blown away by it.  It is such a fantastic book and is incredibly easy to read and apply.  With James' insights & knowledge he shares, he makes success feel possible.

 

In today’s episode we discuss:

 

  • How habits are created?
  • How to form new habits to get the results we want.
  • How we execute a 4-step pattern every time we perform a habit which includes; cue, craving, response & reward. 
  • How to change one’s habits.
  • What habit stacking is.
  • The power of the 1% rule.
  • The compounding interest of applying habits in one’s life.
  • Jame’s definition of “Limitless Potential”.
