Habits Built to Last

A new year is a time of renewal and fresh resolve. It can be discouraging when willpower and motivation begin to wane. The following suggestions from James Clear, author of Atomic Habits, are proven advice to help maintain habits that will endure:

• If you improve by just one percent each day, you’ll be thirty-seven times better by the end of one year! Watch this short, inspiring video about the aggregation of marginal gains.

• Big changes are tempting, but notoriously unsustainable. Clear’s Two-Minute Rule makes new habits attainable and manageable. We often wait for motivation to act, but in reality, action generates motivation!

• Learn about the magic of friction and creating an environment that promotes desirable habits and discourages habits you want to avoid.
