SKILL #01:

YOUR HABITS REFLECT WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE

Your daily actions are often a mirror of your beliefs about yourself. If you see yourself as “not a morning person,” hitting snooze becomes second nature. But when your identity shifts to someone who values early starts, waking up early becomes easier and more automatic.

When behavior aligns with self-image, it feels natural. That’s why real change comes from identity transformation, not willpower. Instead of forcing a habit, ask, “What would a person like me do?” Then, start proving that identity to yourself with small, consistent choices.

SKILL #02:

EVERY ACTION IS A VOTE FOR THE PERSON YOU WANT TO BE

Each time you follow through on a behavior, no matter how small, you reinforce an identity. Doing one push-up makes you a person who exercises. Writing one sentence makes you a writer. These may seem trivial, but they build up and confirm your evolving self-image.

This approach takes the pressure off perfection. You don’t need to overhaul your life overnight—just cast enough votes in favor of the identity you want, and soon, that identity becomes reality.
