We often set out to improve our productivity by adopting new habits, yet we struggle to maintain them over time. This challenge typically arises when we approach habit formation with rigid expectations, without considering the need for sustainability and joy in the process.
In this episode, we explore how to build sustainable habits that not only support our productivity but also align with our deeper goals and values. I discuss the importance of starting small, using mindfulness to enhance the habit-forming process, and employing positive reinforcement to keep the momentum going.
