Your current habits lead to your current results

James Clear’s best-selling book “Atomic Habits” is surprisingly simple, but very powerful. He explains how habits are formed, and techniques for changing them to what you want them to be.

I recently heard James on the Typology podcast, where he dropped another very simple yet powerful line:

“Your current habits are perfectly designed to deliver your current results.”

Your habits and your results are going to be very closely aligned, and that’s often a good thing. If you exercise regularly, your results will reflect that. If you don’t, that’ll be reflected too.

Of course, we can all see that things can go the other direction too, but it’s in your control. If you want to change your current results, change your habits. If you want to change your habits, read James’ book.
