TL;DR; Habits are important. If you want to build the life you want to build, make sure you are making the right small decisions every day. Habits Not long ago I read the book “Atomic Habits” by James Clear. You have likely heard of this book before as it is one of the most popular personal development books out there. As you probably guessed from the title, this book is all about the power of habits and makes the declaration that your life is based on many small decisions, habits, rather than major, life changing decisions. While this is a great book that I would highly recommend to anyone, my relationship with habits started several years ago when I first read “The Compound Effect” by Darren Hardy. This book discusses the massive impact that small changes, compounded over time (hence the book title), can make a difference in your life. The author uses the example of an airplane leaving Los Angeles and heading for New York City, if the nose is off by just 1%, the plane will end up 150 miles off course and arrive in Albany, New York or Dover, Delaware! These are great books to read, but what is the point of reading them without following that reading up with some kind of implementation?!? That is what I want to talk about here: what are the habits that I try to follow every week to keep me sane.
