17 The Special Human Superpower that Can Help You Get Anything You Want in Life
You know those mornings. You promised yourself to wake up early so you can tackle the day, but when the alarm buzzer goes off, you're anything but ready. The bed is warm and the snooze button is so close!
As you could probably guess, this is what my mornings used to be. I struggled against my will to do something that I knew would benefit me in the long run. This is something that I knew would be good for me, but I hadn't fully harnessed the superpower we all have: our ability to build habits.
In this episode of The Stay Inspired Podcast, we'll be talking about how to build habits and get used to consistently doing things that we don't like to do but are good for us. I'll go over some ways to make the process much easier and more enjoyable and some of the ways that I have overcome my own struggle to become a morning person. We all know what we'd like to change, so let's start using our superpowers!
