In this episode of the Finding Direction podcast, I share my four-step process for creating new habits. I emphasize the importance of getting clear on the habit, starting small, creating a reward, and tracking progress. I recommend using a visible tracking method, such as a calendar or daily planner, to monitor progress and stay motivated. I encourage you to implement these steps in your life to create new habits that will lead to a more fulfilling and purposeful life.
