108: James Clear | Forming Atomic Habits...

Jordan Harbinger
About this episode

James Clear (@JamesClear) believes that you do not rise to the level of your goals; you fall to the level of your systems. He is the creator of the Habits Academy and author of Atomic Habits: An Easy and Proven Way to Build Good Habits and Break Bad Ones.

What We Discuss with James Clear:
  • How a near-death experience began James' exploration in leveraging tiny habits for giant outcomes.
  • The difference between systems and goals and which one you should commit yourself to if you want results.
  • What bamboo, cancer, and a winning Olympic coach can teach us about little changes that amount to a lot.
  • Why the way you behave depends on the type of person you believe yourself to be -- and what you can do to modify this belief for the better.
  • What it takes to break bad habits while creating good ones without falling into the “fake it ‘til you make it” delusion.
  • And much more...
