Think about habit development just like muscle development. It isn't about a set number of days, it's about a process and the P.A.R.R. process/method we covered in the last episode. People don't go to the gym and ask, "How long will it take to develop my biceps?" No. They start with 15lbs and curl that weight until within a few weeks it feels light (they get stronger) so they up the weight to 20lbs then 25, 30, 35lbs, etc. Each successive week of planning, acting, recording and reassessing helps to develop the muscle and coincidentally the related HABIT. This is how one creates automaticity (a stronger habit) so you do not have to rely on willpower from one day to the next. Repeat after me: DISCIPLINE is a HABIT. GRIT is a Habit. "Habit is second nature, or rather, ten times nature." William James Each week (for this Breakthrough mini-series) we provide you a tool or template to help you process and implement the week's lesson and this week is no different!
