Surround yourself with people who have the habits you want to have yourself. You’ll rise together. - James Clear

It's easier to notice when you lose money than when you lose time. Be sure you're making the trade you want.

What you do is an indication of the type of person you believe that you are — either consciously or nonconsciously.

The more pride you have in a particular aspect of your identity, the more motivated you will be to maintain the habits associated with it. If you’re proud of how your hair looks, you’ll develop all sorts of habits to care for and maintain it. If you’re proud of the size of your biceps, you’ll make sure you never skip an upper-body workout. If you’re proud of the scarves you knit, you’ll be more likely to spend hours knitting each week. Once your pride gets involved, you’ll fight tooth and nail to maintain your habits.
