Our habits are the building blocks of the life we experience.

If you want to run a marathon, you need to develop a daily running habit in order to develop stamina. If you want to write a book, you need a regular writing habit to get it from your head and onto paper.

And there are good reasons to be more deliberate with your business habits, too…

Reason #1: What Got You Here Won’t Keep You Moving

If your business isn’t moving as fast as you’d like, take a look at your working habits.

How much time each day do you spend working on growth? Is that time productive or thinking time? Look to develop the habit of taking action to grow your business, rather than thinking about growing it.

Reason #2: By Default vs On Purpose

Habits are like a built-in AI that does stuff without you needing to think about it.

But our human autopilot habits are rarely created deliberately, but by default. We have not programmed it with any sense of deliberate intent to get the results we want. When you create habits purposefully, you deliberately prime your actions to produce the results you want.

Reason #3: Habits Give You Consistency

Top athletes train with metronomic consistency to become winners.

You can apply the same approach to grow your business. If you know the behaviours that will produce success in your business, you can turn them into habits. They will inevitably produce the results you want.

The things you do on a daily basis add up to the results you achieve over a month, year, or decade. Don’t let them happen by default.
