Today, I worked on 2 iterations back to back.

On busy days, will follow a simple routine to do 20 pushups, 20 squats, 20 crunches & 20 shrugs.

• As one knows that earning one single coin a day cannot make you rich but accumulating daily will weigh you more towards the goals. Eventually, you will hit a tipping point and you will have what you always wanted.
Small improvements can often seem insignificant however when repeated enough can give you the results which you need.

• “Each of the people, teams and companies we have covered has faced different circumstances, but ultimately progressed in the same way: through a commitment to tiny, sustainable, unrelenting improvements.”

• Important
“Success is not a goal to reach or a finish line to cross. It is a system to improve, an endless process to refine. In Chapter 1, I said, “If you’re having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn’t you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don’t want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change.”

• “With the Four Laws of Behavior Change, you have a set of tools and strategies that you can use to build better systems and shape better habits. Sometimes a habit will be hard to remember and you’ll need to make it obvious. Other times you won’t feel like starting and you’ll need to make it attractive. In many cases, you may find that a habit will be too difficult and you’ll need to make it easy. And sometimes, you won’t feel like sticking with it and you’ll need to make it satisfying.”

• “This is a continuous process. There is no finish line. There is no permanent solution. Whenever you’re looking to improve, you can rotate through the Four Laws of Behavior Change until you find the next bottleneck. Make it obvious. Make it attractive. Make it easy. Make it satisfying. Round and round. Always looking for the next way to get 1% better.

• The secret to getting results that last is to never stop making improvements. It’s remarkable what you can build if you just don’t stop. It’s remarkable the business you can build if you don’t stop working. It’s remarkable the body you can build if you don’t stop training. It’s remarkable the knowledge you can build if you don’t stop learning. It’s remarkable the fortune you can build if you don’t stop saving. It’s remarkable the friendships you can build if you don’t stop caring. Small habits don’t add up. They compound.

🎁That’s the power of atomic habits. Tiny changes. Remarkable results.”

Had been slacking off a bit but fellow makers are helping me push.

Thanks, Kenny, Carl and Mahaveer and others for logging your exercise and inspiring.

• The chapter starts with an inspiring example of a comedian Steven Martin who in the early days used to work in Disney land doing menial jobs and later on rose to fame as a comedian. He was committed to his habit of practising his craft for 18 years. 10 years spent learning, 4 years refining and 4 years as a wild success. How could he be so consistent with his habit for 18 years while most of us even struggle to Keep the Streak alive?

The scientist who research such questions found out that one way to maintain motivation and achieve peak levels of desire is to work on tasks that are "just the right level of difficulty".

• The greatest enemy to success is not failure rather it is boredom. Variable reward had proven to provide the maximum dopamine hit in quite a few tasks, a real life example would be slot machine.

• Anyone can work when they feel motivated but stepping up when it's annoying or painful or draining to do so, that's what makes the difference between professionals and amateurs. You will have to fall in love with boredom.

• There will be many situations against you and you will not FEEL like doing it but you would NEVER regret showing up and working on something THAT MATTERS TO YOU.

How do you give yourself a treat after you complete a tough task? 🎁
