The ONE Thing

482. Find the Habit That Changes Everything in 2025


Listen Later

The second Friday in January is “Quitters’ Day,” according to Strava, a company that helps people track their fitness goals. That’s because most people’s New Year’s resolutions grind to a halt around that time.


You can avoid this trap for all your goals. Jay explains how in this episode.


First, Jay outlines the common mistakes people make when goal setting and how to identify them in your own process. Then, Jay dives into the “first domino” concept, explaining how to pick your optimal keystone habit.


Don’t underestimate the power of small habits to do extraordinary things in your life.

 


Challenge of the Week: 

Look at your number one goal for 2025, Identify your first domino, and then try to make that a habit. If you have to get out your calendar like Jerry Seinfeld and put an X, we have it on the website. Go to the1thing.com/free-resources, download your calendar, and start building that habit around your first domino.



If you're a bold risk taker who wants to dream big and achieve a higher level of success in your life or business, visit the1thing.com.
