Episode notes
Habits Shape Identity More Than Intentions
- Habits form us more than we form them because they become invisible like the water we swim in.
- Making habits explicit lets you align daily behavior with your beliefs and long-term goals.
Adopt Small Keystone Daily Habits
- Do adopt small daily habits like "scripture before phone" and an hour with your phone off to realign your life.
- These keystone habits create outsized mental, spiritual, and productivity benefits over time.
Practice Four Weekly Rhythms
- Try weekly rhythms: fast once a week, one hour of prioritized friend time, Sabbath, and limited media hours.
- Use these weekly limits to take control of your week instead of letting screens and busyness decide for you.
