Do you ever feel like you’d like to start a new habit but you just can’t make yourself do it? In today’s episode of the Christian Habits Podcast, I interview Ian Warner, an expert on habit stacking. Ian created a habit tracking app. Interestingly enough, the number one positive habit that people want to build is reading the Bible each morning.

Ian Warner is a follower of Christ, Olympic athlete, NCAA all-American, and the author of two books. In the podcast, he gives a wealth of information and ideas on how to use habit stacking to start habits that are hard to start.

Here are a few of the things we discuss on the podcast:

* Tips for starting a quiet time habit.

* How to habit stack—adding the habits we want to start to the habits or activities we already have in place.

* The value of starting out small.

* Habit stacking during those difficult times of the days such as the 3:00 mid-afternoon slump.

* How to use rewards to get yourself to do new habits.

* Using times such as the morning “making-your-coffee” session to set yourself up for success.
