Atomic Habits - Effecting Change from the Molecular Level

"You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems." - James Clear, Atomic Habits.

This quote from James Clear in his book, Atomic Habits, rendered me speechless for a few days. The truth of this statement flashed before me all the mistakes I’ve made in my life. The statement brought to bare the reason for the inconsistent results in my life. Lack of an effective “system.” Instead of focusing on goals and positive affirmation, a “system” builds the road that produces the desired goal/result.

What I’ve been doing with this book as I read it, is put pen to paper (or type away in my Google Docs). I’m only 20% through the book. But what I’ve done is begin an itemized draft of Who I want to become, and the habits I ought to engage in to become that person.

Read this book. Implement all that it suggests. It’ll change your life.
