Much of what you normally do isn't a result of conscious choices but of daily habits
Atomic Habits by James Clear
Goals don't determine success, but systems determine success

You don't rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems
Never underestimate how God can do something big in your life through one small habit
Small disciplines (habits) added together help shape and even change our identify
The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg

Keystone habit
Keystone habit has a ripple effect into other parts of life, creating positive change unexpectedly
WHO before DO
Based on WHO you want to become, what one habit do you need to start?

The smaller the better (at first)
We all have systems: Either by intent or default
The Habit Loop
• Something is a cue (trigger)
• The cue leads to an action (routine)
• Then receive the reward
Habit loop: CUE, ACTION, REWARD
STARTING A NEW HABIT:
- Make it obvious
- Make it easy
Make it obvious: If you want to change what you do, then change what we see
Make it easy: Start small and let it grow from there
Do something and see what happens
I will do [_______] after I [________]
Name the CUE and then name the ACTION
Successful people do consistently what other people do occasionally.
End goal: Become more like Christ
Success: An act of faithfulness and obedience today
