16) 21 Days

It takes 21 days to create a habit. 

I thought it'd be helpful to elaborate on the effectiveness of this principle with my career. I add and subtract from my daily schedule. Meaning, I’ll stick with a habit for 21-30 days to see what it yields. From there, I’ll either keep it or subtract it.

Operating this way allowed me to achieve my goals and be more successful.

What does a habit have to look like? Does it have to be running five fucking miles every day? No, it doesn't have to be anything crazy. It can start off as much as reading one page out of a book. Or listening to one short podcast each day for the next 21 days. Or writing a letter to someone that I care about.  

What can you add to your life for the next 21 days? You just need a starting point.

It doesn't have to be record setting or groundbreaking. Just put a couple of things down. I challenge you to put a couple habits down on a piece of paper and see what happens.

Why not create these small little habits that can potentially turn into something significant?
