When trying to eliminate bad habits, or introduce good habits, stacking them into established routines is a helpful strategy.

This week we explore the concept of habit stacking introduced by James Clear in Atomic Habits. We must first answer the 4 questions of habit change, then aim to introduce these actions into our current routines to reinforce them.

The best strategy I've found is to first eliminate a bad habit, then fill the void with a new, positive habit in an established routine.

Why do we fear failure? Generally speaking, we fear the perception of our failure more than failing itself.

In this episode I break down several strategies for building resilience and increased tolerance for high-pressure situations. We cover things like the physiological response to fear and the importance of always having a beginner's mindset.

This week we dive into systems and processes that have been helpful for me. I discuss:

- My nighttime ritual
- My morning ritual
- Organizing my task list
- How to do focused work
- Daily reflection

These systems may work for you, or you may choose to adjust and modify for yourself. The key is they are easy to implement, simple, and don't require a massive time commitment.

This week I dive into my personal story of finding my path after retiring from professional athletics. I needed to create frameworks and systems for myself to navigate a very different life than I was used to.

There was a void left after pursuing a singular goal for so long and having that goal change. For anyone who is facing a major change in their life, I hope these frameworks can help you find your way as well.

This week we do a deep dive into a regular process of self-reflection and assessment. While initially uncomfortable, this technique will allow you to correct course when things are going off track and figure out exactly why you aren't able to achieve your goals to the degree you'd like.
