Habit Forming


newsletter banner 020921

Getting into a groove with a new habit can move you forward. There is a lot of research that even minor adjustments to your way of doing things can make a big difference. Apply this thinking to a new adventure in your life and now you’re doing more than thinking about doing. 

“In order to design successful habits and change your behaviors, you should do three things. Stop judging yourself. Take your aspirations and break them down into tiny behaviors. Embrace mistakes as discoveries and use them to move forward.”

Stanford’s Director of Behavior Design Lab BJ Fogg’s book Tiny Habits: The Small Habits That Change Everything is based on twenty years of research and Fogg’s experience coaching more than 40,000 people.

The Tiny Habits website even offers a free and simple 5-day course where professor Fogg says “You will learn a lot about habits, as well as how to change your behavior.”

Second Act Stories
Over the past three years Andy Levine has hosted the Second Act Stories podcast, He’s interviewed 89 men and women who’ve made successful career pivots. On Next Avenue he makes the point, “While career experts consistently advocate for the planning method (slowly and methodically plotting a pivot before you make one), my interviews suggest that a “leap and the net will appear” approach can prove equally effective.”
