I shouldn't be telling you this...
the hidden power of momentum
Hey bro,
I wanted to share one of the most important things I've ever discovered.
If you aren't using this natural law to your advantage,
I guarantee it's using YOU to its advantage.
I am speaking of course, about momentum.
Or in other words, your habits.
Things in motion tend to stay in motion.
This means that if you are currently sitting on your couch in front of your Xbox with Cheetos dust on your fingers,
You'll likely be doing that tomorrow and the day after.
This is why I hammer on building habits.
Because you really only have to do it ONCE.
So here are some action steps you can use to build better habits easily.
Remember, habit-building ITSELF is a skill.
If you create one habit, the next one is easier.
Because then you have proof you can do it.
Here's a simple one: Make your bed every day.
It's easy to do, but it's also easy NOT to do.
Track how many days in a row you have done this until you reach 30 days.
If you really want to lock it in, I'd say shoot for 90 days.
Humans are weird creatures, we don't always know why we do things.
But once you control your habits, you control your life.
And success becomes automatic.
Try it out.
