#1995 Atomic Habits by James Clear

The Exponential Power of Atomic Habits

Today, we’re diving into Atomic Habits by James Clear.

James tells us: “Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement.”

Here’s the math: If you get just 1% better every day for a year, you’ll end up 37 times better by the end of the year. Over time, those tiny daily actions compound into extraordinary results.

So, how do we start building Atomic Habits?

First, focus on trajectory, not results. Clear says: “You should be more concerned with your current trajectory than your current results.” Show up consistently, and trust the process.

Next, start small. Clear reminds us: “Make it so easy you can’t fail.” Think: one push-up, one page, one minute of focus.

Finally, track and celebrate progress. He says: “What gets measured gets improved.” Find a way to keep yourself accountable.

So, what’s one tiny habit you can start today to point your plane in the right direction?
