In today’s compelling episode, Brett is joined by James Clear, acclaimed author of “Atomic Habits”, delving into unique aspects of his journey and perspective. Clear reveals the foundational themes of his childhood, his thirst for knowledge, and how this shaped his path to becoming a writer and entrepreneur. He discusses the importance of intentional life design, viewing life as a canvas for creation rather than passive existence. The conversation also covers Clear's insight on the power of showing up consistently and becoming the architect of your own habits. Additionally, he addresses the tradeoffs of success, how to maintain flexibility, and his belief that habits do not restrict freedom but instead create it. A special emphasis is put on how Clear's reading and family life inform his work and time management strategies.
