This book has changed my life. I have always been focused on the goal. When I reach that goal, it doesn't fill me and I don't know how to sustain it. This guy changed the way I view things. I started trying to identify and because my ego is strong it worked very quick. For example, instead of saying I want to lose 10lbs, I said to myself : " I am an athlete". Then I started identifying as one, i.e. starting to take care of my health, starting checking what I eat, started doing a lot of sport. I now run everyday, I do calisthenics and I have lost 17lbs in 2 months. The funny thing is I didn't even pay attention, because it's normal to be in shape when you are an "athlete". I am just focusing on doing things that makes me an "athlete" and the results naturally follow.

Last year I got rid of my bad habits ( Quit alcohol and coffee ) and implemented good habits ( get up at 5.30 am each day , hit the gym , start doing intermittent fasting , start meditation , finish 2 books a week , keep a journal in which I write certain ideas , goals , ext .. ) And I have been able to do all this in ONE year , NEVER needed willpower or motivation , but did it through identity shift and been very consistent. At age 43 , I feel like I am sitting on top of the world ..!

Studying neuroscience & then listen to James Clear who doesn't have a Ph.D. make me realize that his ideas is science based, honest & accurate.

This CD is very calming kzread.infoUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq the first meditation focuses on breathing, the second guides you through the Buddhist metta bhavana--loving kindness to all, and the third is a meditation to be used when walking. him is originally from Scotland, so there is a little accent to his voice, but it is very soothing and not at all distracting. If you are a beginner to meditation, this CD will walk you through all the steps of relaxing and breathing as well as sending out the positive thoughts of love and kindness that will be returned to you. We have several CD's, but this one is a favorite that we choose most often.

4 stages (laws) of habits: 9:09 20:05 37:19 1. Cue (Make it obvious, Exposure) - For bad habits, make it invisible. If you cut out the stimuli, then the bad habit loop will not happen. Raw data. Example: Flossing, place the floss close-by. 2. Craving (Make it attractive): prediction, interpretation on how we should act. 4:30 , 10:30 For bad habits, make it unattractive. 50:19 When you interpret a behavior as attractive then there is reason to perform an action. Sometimes it is depending on the people we are around. 3. Response (Make it easy) : Interpretation of the reward. For bad habits, make it difficult. 59:32 Convenience, we leave the phone in a separate location. Get them to work for you. Example: garden hose, if we want more water unfold the bend, and let water flow through naturally. Sustainable gentle solution. Prime your environment to make your default reaction easier. 4. Reward (Make it satisfying) make it your identity, habit tracking 22:42 For bad habits, make it not satisfying. 1:14:00 reinforcement of your identity. Behavior that are immediately rewarded gets repeated. How quickly you feel good. 1:30 Define: Habit: Behavior repeat enough times to be automatic. Be aware of those habits. 3:11 Habits is the physical manifestations of your psychological make-up, conscious/unconscious mind. 5:00 Habits is a way to adapt to an environment, and solving a recurring problem. 6:18 Behavior psychology, BF skinner. cognitive psychology: it is not just about cue and rewards, but also the mindset and psychological process (the internal process). 9:23 Contextualize the cue, helps clarify what the reward, why important? Perceive value motivates you to act. Actual value motivates you to repeat. example: buying on Amazon. 11:52 Every behavior is driven by a change of state. Example: eating doritos, using phone --> not be bored, change that state. You didn't get out of the womb with a desire to check Instagram. 13:00 Habits dictate our experience as humans. 14:27 Life mantra: suffer a little bit more 15:00 It is easy to theorize, but we need to be actionable. 16:00 We write the book we need ourselves. When he write about habits, it is to learn about it and improve. 18:16 The outcomes are the manifestations that precede your habits. Habits are the ways you embody your identity. 21:25 All behaviors serve you in some ways. Example: Donut, going to the gym. 23:40 Bad habits does not serve you in the long run; good habits serve you in the long run. Should we remove the judgment of habits? In order to be aware of your habits, then you need to think about it and compel yourself to change. There are habits that serve you and some that are not in the long term. Example: smoking. 27:35 Analysis paralysis: overthink too much, but we need to take actions. Motion vs. action. Action will deliver the results, but motion is only related. Example: going to the gym and train vs. talking to the trainer. 29:10 True behavior change is identity change. Reinforce that identity that you want. It is all about the process and journey. How do I become the person that embodies this every day! Small habits. 31:24 Every great achievement is about the tiny little non-sexy things we do every day. Habits are the foundation for mastery. 33:10 Example: Lebron, automate everything 33:00 Free Solo, he is master rock climber: kzread.info/dash/bejne/p6aGuLxtg7qdh7g.html He runs it so many times they can just automate it and do it on the fly. Olympians work for 4 years to shave off 200th of a second. 39:28 The best ways is to change the environment so it is conducive to healthy choices. Reimagining the landscape. Structural systemic changes. Example: Six pack of beer, put it in the back of the fridge so you don't see it. 41:26 True addiction: many of these tips might not work for them. Need a different approach. Addiction: behavior that is on repeat even though we know it is not good for us. Satisfy the craving, but doesn't help in any other way. 44:33 Surrender, and understand that I need to let go. Determination and grit didn't work against true addiction. Isolated him for other people. The strategy might help with the denial. 46:00 The biology of bad behaviors. TMS machine, magnetic stimulation for the brain. Prefrontal cortex, area for addicts is deactivated, when craving arises we have trouble resisting. 51:00 Tribes: what does it mean? The community we are part of, the shared expectations to be part of the group, when you have friends there, the habits that aligned with it are attractive. Join a group where you desire behavior is the norm behavior. Surround yourself with the people that reinforce that. Asking people to change their habits is asking them to change their tribes. 54:53 Facts change our lives: we need to have some reasonable based-lines, people hold belief because it helps them belong. 56:30: NYU research, the importance of punishment and consequences. Fear consequences change people in short run. But for long run, you need lasting reward. Example: Gym that pays you back if you attend the gym. Thomas Frank (Colorado), waking up early, created a twitter post that if he didn't get up then he will pay people $25, he will wake up at 6 am. Tim Ferrell similar example. 1:04:10 You want to make it automatic (brainless) to make it easy for you. 1:04:56 Cell phone: it becomes so addictive. 1:05:00 Minimalism: Having the optimal number of things, not just not having things. 1:07:00 Capitalism: designers to lay out casinos, airports so we can spend more money. Example: KZread, steve jobs didn't let his kids have IPAD. 1:08:00 Two minute rule: Scale it down, make it simple. Mastering the art of showing up. A habit needs to be established before we can improve it. Make it as easy as possible to get started. Optimize the starting line instead of the finish line. You have to standardize before you optimize. 1:11:00 We tend to overestimate what we can do in short term, but underestimate what we can in long term. It often leads to burnout. Example: heating up a ice-cube. 32 degrees, the ice cube will melt. 1:13:50 This is about identity, this is who I am. 1:15:00 Momentum: how important is it? Objects that stays in motion stays in motion. Never miss twice in a row. Missing once is a mistake, missing twice becomes a habit. 1:18:00 Light: the room is dark, I want it to light up, turn on the switch, then lights is on. (example). Video games are great with this as well. 1:21:20 Pokemon Go reference "It got people to walk a lot, but it wasn't an exercise app at all." Make it attractive, join a tribe that adopts that identity. 1:31:26 As the good habits form, it crowds out the bad ones. 1:31:00 Keystone Habits: Exercise, Visualization, Daily Walk, Meditation, Budgeting (pay off debt) 1:37:20 Make it satisfying (example: chewing gum). 1:40:00 Temptation bundling: example of going to the gym while watching Game of Thrones. incentivize your behavior with another habit. Be willing to experiment. 1:42:17 You need to experiment, and do what works for you. 1:42:34: Goals are useful for a sense of direction, but we should focus on the system and process. Problems with goals is that are not sufficient. 90% of the time should be thinking about the process. 1:48:00 Identity has a permanence to it. 1:50:33 The problems of good habits, as we get better it becomes our comfort zone, we need to find ways to keep growing. 1:52:29: Two minute rule, get it started, optimize for finish line. All or nothing mentality, get back on track as quickly as possible. Identity and casting votes for the person who you want to become. Social environment: stick to the environment with the people around you. 1:55:01 Takeaways to get started: (1) Mindset shift: Try to find a way to get 1% better every day, habits are easy to overlook because they don't seem like very much. It is once it is compounded that you can see it fully apparent. If you understand that concept, then you can understand how your habits shape you. (2) Apply the 2 minute rule, scale it down to the 2 minutes of the behavior. How do you automate the beginning of the behavior. Take small steps. 1:58:47 Genes and habits: the genes seems like a fix characteristics, the applicability of your genes is highly on context. Example: Introversion/Extroversion. Agreeableness. Consciousness. 5 traits of personality. Understand yourself, then you can find habits that fits you better. What suits us best in our predispositions. Example: Michael Phelps. Where you can handle the pain? 2:07:00 Habits is the compound interest of self improvements. jamesclear.com/

it's safe to say james made it very clear

I try to apply this. I don't say to myself "oh my god, this house is so dirty and messed up, i have to clean everything." instead of that, i try to become that kind of person, that, "whenever he uses something puts it back immidiately, whenever he sees some garbage, he threws it in the trash immidiately,... I feel really a little bit proud of me, everytime i do something small. And now i want this feeling more and more...

I was listening to a podcast that said, “it’s important to live life by design rather than emotion. Basically, sticking to a routine is what allows us to be the healthiest version of ourselves (especially when you're fighting these demons ex. OCD for me). I’ve had to overhaul how I approach taking care of my brain (journaling) by practising mediocre consistency. Now I try to put in consistent 50-60% effort into my journaling habit, workouts and studying - to make sure I do it I began recording it and posting it on YT. And part of that is routinely putting in work on your dreams and projects despite how you’re feeling! I was a zombie for 2 years, so depressed - feeling like those two years are just gone - the critic in my head is vicious. This video is a message to keep my head up and keep marching forward.

Rich roll is such a great interviewer. He doesn't get stuck in one point, but gets the most important parts of it. He knows to develop an idea, but goes to the overview of the theme throw the interview.

31:08 “even though they’re small they can still be meaningful, and if they are meaningful they actually are big!” 🎤 ⤵️

I think changing bad habits will in turn help with addiction. But first you must fix the addiction problem. I've been sober over 4 months now from heroin but I'm also trying to fix my bad habits. I make my bed every morning, pray every night, go to church every Sunday, brush my teeth twice a day, I've been doing things I wasn't doing in the midst of my addiction. I wasn't making my bed in the morning when the only thing that mattered to me was how and where I'm going to find some dope so I'm not sick. So doing these small habit changes makes me feel good about myself. Which pushes me forward to change even more habit's. Which is bringing me further and further away from my lifestyle when I was in addiction. So it's helping to stay sober compared to getting sober.

Making things easier to build the habit: I've been learning Italian since 2019 and in the beginning, I did it the worst way you can do it. I just did a lot of notecards and tried to memorize. BUT, the notecards were digital and on my phone and kept track of statistics and timed the repetitions to help with difficult words. So I built the habit of learning vocabulary from these notecards and eventually had a foundation to discover other methods of learning. After years of trial and error, I now have a big tablet that syncs with an Italian language dictionary, Wikipedia, and a translation program simultaneously and also has a built-in notecard feature so I can simultaneously read/look things up/file them for learning. It's super easy and habitual now.

Every time James Clear speaks, I feel my life changing right there.

Also the end of the conversation, about Luck, is a great argument against racism. How many POC who have been belittled to the point of low self esteem are capable of finding cures to cancer or who could have been great leaders had their circumstances been different? Racism not only holds back POC but society in general because we don’t know what advances in humanity that we’ve been locked out of.

Compared on ego driven podcasts of many others on the internet this interview is pure gem. Rich and James are true gentlemen, no ego trips here, lot of smart mind and good manners. Kudos to both.

Most important takeaways for me: * Don't focus so much on goals, a lot of people have the same goal, but only those with a good system can achieve it. * 2 minutes rule: the habit is not exercising, it's actually showing up to the gym or wearing exercise clothes, so always start by making the first two minutes a habit, the rest will follow. * Focus on identity: do a small variation of the habit if you don't have time, for example 5 push-ups can help solidify the identity in your mind. Even if it will not help much in achieving your goal of getting in shape.

"Good habits"

I’ve been sedentary for 4 years. Just started with a 7-minute HIIT elliptical workout today. That’s plenty for day 1!

“Until you become the person who shows up everyday, there’s nothing to optimize.” If you (as I) find yourself overwhelmed by the details, remember that just doing something, anything, everyday in the vein of who you choose to become is the incremental change that can segue into lasting results.

Making a decision on who you want to be and work the process to train yourself in being the person who does daily pushups. Train yourself. It is the best hobby. Love this stuff so much.

Lessons from 'Atomic Habits' by JamesClear 1. “Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity.” 2. “You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” 3. “You should be far more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results.” 4. “When you fall in love with the process rather than the product, you don’t have to wait to give yourself permission to be happy. You can be satisfied anytime your system is running.” 5. “Goals are good for setting a direction, but systems are best for making progress.” 6. “Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement” 7. “All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision." 8. “When nothing seems to help, I go & look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock,perhaps a 100 times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the 100 and first blow it will split in 2, and I know it was not that last blow that did it but all that had gone before.” 9. “Be the designer of your world and not merely the consumer of it.” 10. “Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.” 11. “Success is the product of daily habits-not once-in-a-lifetime transformations.” 12. “The purpose of setting goals is to win the game. The purpose of building systems is to continue playing the game. True long-term thinking is goal-less thinking. It’s not about any single accomplishment. It is about the cycle of endless refinement and continuous improvement. 13. “When you can’t win by being better, you can win by being different.” 14. “Professionals stick to the schedule; amateurs let life get in the way.” 15. “Some people spend their entire lives waiting for the time to be right to make an improvement.” 16. “You don’t have to be the victim of your environment. You can also be the architect of it.” 17. “If you want better results, then forget about setting goals. Focus on your system instead.” 18. “We imitate the habits of three groups in particular: The close. The many. The powerful.” 19. “The greatest threat to success is not failure but boredom. We get bored with habits because they stop delighting us. The outcome becomes expected. And as our habits become ordinary, we start derailing our progress to seek novelty.” 20. “With outcome-based habits, the focus is on what you want to achieve. With identity-based habits, the focus is on who you wish to become.” 21. “The only way to become excellent is to be endlessly fascinated by doing the same thing over and over. You have to fall in love with boredom.” 22. “Your outcomes are a lagging measure of your habits. Your net worth is a lagging measure of your financial habits. Your weight is a lagging measure of your eating habits. Your knowledge is a lagging measure of your learning habits. You get what you repeat.” 23. “True long-term thinking is goal-less thinking. It’s not about any single accomplishment. It is about the cycle of endless refinement and continuous improvement. Ultimately, it is your commitment to the process that will determine your progress.” 24. “Getting 1 percent better every day counts for a lot in the long-run.”

The part about changing your identity is so important. When I first went vegan, it was for ethical reasons, but I also lost weight. But when people ask me if going vegan is a good weight loss plan, I usually say it isn’t. If I were denying myself meat and cheese to lose weight, I’d be stressed all the time and would definitely “cheat” regularly. Since it was for ethical reasons, all the stress went away. When someone offered me those foods, I just knew that wasn’t me anymore and it was easy.

I would interpret your comment as " mind over matter" ....once our mind forms a sincere belief about something , the rest of our behaviour falls into place .Interestingly , our bodyweight goals are more achievable if we form a legitimately different way of perceiving the food we need to eat less of.I found a similarly different food perception with the keto diet which changes my hormonal levels of insulin by eliminating carbs.

Rich got real intense and possessive about addiction territory, definitely the identity of someone who is terrorized by the addiction. He wasnt having any habit talk around his addiction and how his solution

About the running and working out habit, automating the first 2 minutes: I did that! I realized my biggest obstacle (and excuse) was putting on my workout clothes when I got home from work. So I started bringing my workout gear with me to work, change at work before leaving. And when I get in the car, the brain goes " oh...I'm already in my workout gear, lets just hit the running track/gym". Now if I don't do it it makes my evening miserable and antsy! :D.

Well done!! I trust this will become life-changing for you. I started setting my clothes the night before for work and gym. My motivation soared and the quality of my sessions, too. The really great thing is that I am enjoying my sessions for the first time in many years. Then I lost 5kg in 4 weeks already. I remind myself that a fit person wouldn't miss the gym, and a healthy person wouldn't make bad food choices too. These are now my habits. They belong to a fit and healthy person, me. It's a powerful awakening that happened to me.

you are not alone, The human brain has not changed much in the last 10 000 years. Although we may be highly educated and living in an urban environment, we still have a hunter-gatherer brain with reward systems that are tuned to a hunter-gatherer environment. We are hard wired to seek out calorie dense foods as this would have improved our chances of getting enough calories in a hunter-gatherer environment. Other food qualities such as sweetness, saltiness and softness would also have been desirable. Check out "The pleasure Trap" by Doug Lisle and Alan Goldhammer. Rich interviewed Alan Goldhammer...check out that episode.

Appreciate your self motivation, but on the other side about food. There is no such a trash food. I noticed this from some one saying that all food, of course with normal handling etc etc, is good. What makes it different is how we consume food on regular basis. A little more is what is our believe towards certain kinds of foods. If we believe it's good then it brings good. And vice versa.

Rich Roll is such a great interviewer. What he adds to the conversation enhances the talk and he doesn't interrupt for interruptions' sake like a lot of these interviewers. Great content. Reading Atomic Habits right now. 👍

The key to breaking a bad habit is first to understand exactly what payoff you get from it in the moment. So, give in to the habit but be totally aware of what you are feeling while indulging. Only then will you have the knowledge to address the problem.

At time hour and 25 minutes, regarding the difficulty in eliminating the second step of the 4 steps of a bad habit (emotional response to a cue) is the key to habit change. You can't eliminate all the triggers to your bad habit, especially with dieting. You have to deal with your emotional response to the food you want/need to avoid. Sherianna Boyle's work, "Emotional Detox" on processing your emotions is great for this.

There is a downside to grit. Adherence can be addictive. Sometimes pain is telling you to stop but you've developed such incredible grit, pain tolerance, and strong habits that you keep going when you shouldn't.

2:06:24: "The area where you are more well-equipped to suffer, is the work that you were made to do" I found this a very interesting thought. Amazing conversation overall. Thank you!

As a member of the 12 steps myself, grateful Rich is talking about this to educate others.

What an astonishing interview! Watching this should be a must for everyone but especially for young people. Don't miss it. Create good habits when you are still young is maybe the best thing you can do in your whole life.

The example of 1% better each day with studying a language 1hr per day or switching a burger vs salad and compounding effect definitely hit home 🎯 🍔

When talking about how good serves you in the short term, particularly sweet or rich foods, I wish people wouldn’t just simplify it to “it tastes good.” For people with real food dependency issues, it’s more complex than that and involves how the food affects and is affected by your brain chemistry and gut biome. People don’t become morbidly obese simply because “it tastes good.”

Fat in general, I think. I am not overweight at all, but I have higher body fat than I really want as a 'cyclist' (wannabe). I don't really enjoy most of the food that I eat. I don't even like the beer I drink in the country I live in. Frankly, it's pretty shit. Habits, a sense of normality, a whole host of other things affect it, as you say.

I appreciate how when you feel like something he says maybe isn't everyone's truth that you address it. You are so gracious. I found myself pushing back on some of his opinions and when you would address certain things it helped me identify why I was pushing back. Because of your maturity and grace in pointing those things out, then instead of me shutting down and just deciding I didn't have to listen, I was able to apply what I needed to learn. Thank you for providing such great content and continuing to encourage me on my journey to health.

This is all basically my undergrad sociology degree in one podcast. 😆 yeah! Sociology is cool now!!! Love it!

The wealth of knowledge and experience Rich has is staggering, but all the more impressive because he can remain curious in conversation. Thank you for bringing great conversation into my home.

A habit is authentic way to solve problem.

James Clear is so much clear...

Great guy. Being a recovering alcoholic myself I disagree a bit with his secret chapter on dealing with addiction. To get over my addiction and stay sober I had to learn deeply about myself and it made me better than I ever would of been if I had just taken a pill to stop the addiction. I am a grateful alcoholic as I know without it I would of just carried been an angry asshole if I wasn’t an addict. Being an alcoholic I can’t afford most negative thoughts and behavior that others engage in without consequence.

And HOW do you change your identity?? I mean, isn't saying this way just a shuffling of the same problem, how do you change a behavior and how do you change identity, it is the same issue... if you start BEHAVING differently it will change your identity, but you cannot "change your identity" if you don't change behavior, you cannot just one day say I am this other thing or person. You start to ACT like that person but behavior comes first... some say it more crudely, Fake it until you make it (or become it).

For those of us who actually want to change & improve our outlook & imprint on not only our lives but the one's we care about & love , is there any other choice ? I want to & will become a better person.

I'm so getting this book sounds AWESOME. Have to say though that Gabor Mate nails why there are addictive habits, beyond just the functional Neuroscience when he says "All addiction is a response to human suffering"

I changed my iPhone screen settings to black and white, set the DND to turn on automatically from 10pm to 7am, and turned off all sounds and notifications except phone calls and texts. I also leave my phone out in the living rom while I sleep. These simple changes eliminated most of the temptation to check it constantly.

James Clear is a gracious guest.

“Prime the environment to make the default action easier.” I’d been slim the majority of my life, and then emotional eating was showing up adding extra pounds. I’m also a recovering alcoholic, so I know not to have temptation around. I did fresh fruit smoothies, so a glass of it curbed that sugar urge and was healthier for me.

This may be the longest KZread video that I have watched. And it was full to bursting with actionable content. Thank you!

Hey Join me on Goodreads

This is probably the longest interview/podcast I have ever listened to, but the content in this just kept me glued to it and kept me listening. Thank you so much Rich and James for this wonderful conversation which also doubles as a treasure trove of golden nuggets of practical information that we can all start implementing into our lives. Thank you for this!

“The outcomes are just the manifestations of the behaviors that preceded them. You get what you repeat.”

totally dug this talk and i am always trying to figure out how to stop the habit of certain thoughts that go round and round in my head that also drives my actionable habits. thoughts can drive habits, but it is difficult to drive change with changing action first. can't wait to read the book. ordered it today. 😊

Rich, your description of addiction at :44 and forward is spot on, and it doesn't matter what the addiction is, even narcissists would have the same definition, and it was excellent. Well done. I'm still listening to the rest of this pod cast, probably the best one I've heard this year, but I didn't want to continue without saying what a masterful job you did of explaining the dynamic of addiction.

Pure Gold. Something Iam convinced of is this friction concept. If you want to get rid or get into something, you need to stay away or get closer depending on the system you want to implement. Is not about the bridge but the rocks.

"We'd rather be wrong with the crowd, than right by ourselves" - wow. And just look at the mess that society is in today...

Almost done watching. This is cool. I need to develop a second habit. After walking, writing. This is valuable that is why I subscribed. Great interview. Habits will make you do things brainlessly. I like that.

Rich Roll, thanks for being so real both in your podcast and your interview you won’t ever know how much you are helping most of us understanding ourselves and in doing so you give us hope in overcoming our doubts about life and Realizing we are all human and we are not alone . You are the best.❤👍🙏🏾

Wonderful podcast guys, exploring a great topic. It took me 3 days to watch it and take notes, but it was worth it. I love long form conversations from people all over the globe. New ideas, new thought processes, new paradigms. I could never afford to travel to all these places and meet these people, so I bring them to my head set

James clear was great and Rich’s line of questioning obviously helps get the valid points out of James… SOMETIMES !… because In some parts Rich doesn’t seek the interviewees in depth opinion but he basically forces and tests validity of HIS OWN opinions without seeming to care about what the interviewee might be about to say and then tease more out or simply link onto the next point without forcing his own opinion… it’s probably a difficult balance but one which Rich would do well to practice more.

I think the systems they are talking about once a Goal is set, is the Mission that is within your Vision. I define this intensely in the B.Print for life. Its your True North + Aligned Action

So grateful for James' work. "Atomic Habits" has been such a tremendous blessing to me!

Thanks Rich for having James on your podcast. This is gold sir .
