Notes

Everyone wants a better life

Everyone wants to be better at life.

More: Love, Joy, Peace, Hope, Significance

Less: Chaos, Stress, Frustration, Hurt, Apathy

The ever-increasing "more" leaves us exhausted, overwhelmed, and disappointed.

What if an EXTRAordinary life doesn't come from extra?

It's a fascinating topic: HABITS, rather than conscious decision-making, can shape as many as 45 percent of the choices we make every day, according to a study from Duke University. MIT article

Whether you realize it or not, a lot of your daily behavior is composed of habits. These are automatic behaviors that you do without thinking. For most people most of the time, habits are created unconsciously, and they are carried out automatically. Psychology Today

We become what we repeatedly do

Are our regular HABITS leading us to become the who that we want to be and the LIFE we want?

Jesus doesn't ask for more

Jesus invites us to different

Reality:

Ignoring the truth that HABITS form more than our schedules they form our hearts and lives will keep us stuck in the dysfunctional loop of "more"

TRUTH: Our small habits create big impact!

Better comes from different habits not in doing more of the same.
