January 17, 2024 Episode141 Atomic Habits Review
As the result of several listeners' interest in my take on the atomic habits by James Clear, I decided to use this episode as an opportunity to break down my perspective on the topics he covers. Additionally listed below is a link to resources that he provides on his website that I feel may be of use to anyone who is working on goals and habits that they want to accomplish in this new year.
