How to build a new habit (to get to a big goal)
Manage episode 399833593 series 2358889
In this mini-episode, I explain how to build new habits to achieve big goals. The key points I expand upon are:
- Have a compelling reason why you want to achieve the goal. It should be emotional and really matter to you.
- Clarify your identity - who will you need to become to achieve this goal? Seeing yourself as that person will help drive your actions.
- Use structure and planning, not just willpower. Put actions to build the habit in your schedule as non-negotiable appointments.
- Make the habit obvious, attractive, easy and satisfying. Ask how you can design the habit this way.
Show notes:
- A compelling reason needs energy and emotion. It should really hit you and feel important. [00:01:00]
- Identity is who you will be when you achieve the goal. It pulls you towards the actions needed. [00:06:00]
- Scheduling actions makes habits a non-negotiable part of your week. Rely on structure over willpower alone. [00:08:00]
- The four ways to build a habit are make it obvious, attractive, easy and satisfying. [00:09:00]
