“Few things can have a more powerful impact on your life than improving your daily habits.” – James Clear


Hi – I’m Laurie Gunning Grossman, host of Hold the Light. In this episode I share insights from James Clear's best-selling book Atomic Habits, which has sold over 10 million copies. From Clear’s work, you’ll learn how to build better habits, including his step-by-step framework that he says is an integrated model of cognitive and behavioral sciences. Think: cue, craving, response, and reward. And you’ll also discover four things you can do right now to start building better habits.


EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:

  • James Clear's best-selling book Atomic Habits emphasizes the powerful impact of improving daily habits on one's life.
  • An atomic habit, according to Clear, involves tiny changes and marginal gains that compound into remarkable results over time.
  • Clear's four-step habit model consists of cue, craving, response, and reward, offering a cognitive and behavioral approach to habit formation.
  • Practical tips for building better habits include starting small, being consistent, using visual cues, and celebrating accomplishments.
  • The importance of habits in shaping one's future self and encourages falling in love with the habit-building process for long-lasting happiness.
