In this chapter, the host and guest explore the definition of habits and discuss the importance of being intentional in building habits. They emphasize the benefits of automating certain tasks through habits and explain the difference between goals and systems.
Our daily habits are the key to reaching our long-term goals, argues writer James Clear. His bestselling book, "Atomic Habits," distills the most compelling research on how to break bad habits and form good ones. He talks with Maya about how our habits shape our identity—for better or worse—and how to design our habits so they actually stick.
