In December of 2019, I read a book that ultimately changed my life. The book was Atomic Habits by James Clear.

While I was very familiar with the importance of daily habits, I’d always struggled. I was goal-oriented and had been setting goals for myself since I was seven years old, but I often would miss my intended goal or even forget about it.

I hadn’t yet mastered how to take daily action, or improve by 1% as mentioned in the book, to get to my end goal without feeling rushed or out of alignment.

This book, and life lesson, came to me at just the right time, as I had been struggling to find my footing after selling our home and choosing to travel full-time. Over the past three years, I've applied the lessons and information in the book to not only improve my day-to-day life but also my mindset, health, relationships, and business.

Through this work, I've developed a deeper understanding of the person I want to be – yes it’s that good! But, it hasn't been easy and it has been a journey.

Today, on the podcast I’m sharing a repurposed recording from 2020, shortly after reading the book, to shed some light on what the beginning was like. It can be really easy to see someone's chapter 10 and compare it to your chapter 3, but we all start somewhere.

I hope today's episode gives you a starting place to implement your personal aligned habits and the inspiration to start exactly where you are with what you have.

In episode 41 of the podcast you'll learn:

Just how important small daily actions are for greater change in your relationships, mindset, health, and career, not just this year but forever.
The specific habits I needed to create in order to see shifts and changes in my life, as well as sustainable growth (especially in business).
Why daily habits are necessary not just to achieve our goals and make revenue in our business, but to shift our identity and honor our commitments to ourselves.
