221. Common Myths About Forming Habits

Dec 23, 2019

Do you know everything that you need to know about forming a habit?

More than 20,000 people have downloaded the 66-Day Calendar from the1thing.com and we’ve shepherded more than 4,000 people through a 66-Day challenge through our Time Blocking Mastery Course — and what we’ve found is that there are some very common myths around forming a habit.

And if you aren’t aware of what these myths are, then you simply won’t be as successful. So, in this episode, we sit down with someone who’s embarked on quite a few 66-Day Challenges, Jeff Gray, and we dive into some of the mistakes he made and the lessons he learned along the way — lessons that were absolutely vital to achieving the success he has today.

Starting Jan. 1, 2020, we will be kicking off a Living Your ONE Thing 66-Day Challenge exclusively for members. We will be pouring into our community so that everyone can start the new year with a power habit that sticks, and we invite you to join us. You can start for FREE at the1thing.com/community.

In this episode, you will learn...

-[10:45] Why it’s okay if you don’t knock every 66-Day Challenge out of the park

-[12:55] What Jeff learned from his first 66-Day Challenge (that a lot of people miss)

-[20:25] The importance of focusing on what you can do, and nothing more

-[34:35] What you need to know before starting your first 66-Day Challenge
