Habits play a crucial role in mental strength. They influence how you manage stress, how well you focus, and how you make decisions. That's why it's so important to work on building helpful habits while eliminating the ones keeping you stuck.

Some of the things I share today are:

  • The most common misconceptions about habits
  • The science behind habit loops and how understanding this is crucial to understanding behavior
  • The two-minute rule that will help you change your habits
  • Strategies that make it easier to stick to habits
  • The key to long-lasting habit change
