Episode notes
Build Discipline With Tiny, Timed Actions
- Start ridiculously small to build discipline, then scale up consistently over time.
- Use hourly micro-resets (60 seconds) to refocus and create automatic neural patterns.
How Thoughts Turn Into Habits
- Thought patterns become emotional patterns which become behavioral patterns and then automatic neural circuits.
- Your brain automates repeated patterns to conserve energy, locking in habits for better or worse.
Use 100 Days To Make Habits Stick
- Work on one specific habit or goal for an extended block (John recommends 100 days).
- Focus on the habit, not intensity at first, and stack habits once the foundation exists.
