Episode 3503:

Cara Harvey explains that achieving meaningful goals requires more than just motivation, it demands a strategic approach to habit-building. By using habit stacking, you can break big goals into manageable steps, making lasting change more achievable. Instead of overwhelming yourself with massive transformations overnight, focus on small, measurable habits that build on each other, ensuring long-term success without burnout.

Quotes to ponder:

"Making big goals and not creating a system to attack them is just setting yourself up for failure."

"By breaking them down into smaller habits, and really developing those habits as part of your day-to-day routines, you can create systems in your life that just become second nature and impact your long term."

"Without tracking, it’s so easy to miss a day of your new habit and completely stop."
