Atomic Habits IN ACTION: Online Book Club with Habit Trackers!
·OnlineOnlineYou’ve read the book.
You loved the ideas.
And then… life happened.Welcome to Atomic Habits IN ACTION.
Forever life changes your way with James Clear's book and habit trackers!What you'll walk away with
• A simple habit tracking system
• Practical ideas you can actually use
• Encouragement from people doing the same thingWe'll meet once a month for four months.
No pressure.
No perfection required.
Just experimentation.Starting Monday, April 20th
Third Monday of the month -
Four MeetingsWe’ll talk about what works, what doesn’t, and how tiny changes can create surprisingly big results.
To make things easier, I’ve created simple habit tracker templates you can use between meetings.
Full Page Tracker Template - https://www.canva.com/design/DAHDIRkaFsM/kBqPfLIn7bNGM26ga04OQg/view?utm_content=DAHDIRkaFsM&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=publishsharelink&mode=preview
What We'll Do
Each month we’ll gather online to talk about a few key ideas from the book and share what we’ve tried.
Some people will read every page.
Some will skim.
Some may just show up for the convo.
The goal here is progress, not perfection.***
What you'll need -
• A copy of Atomic Habits by James Clear
• A willingness to try small changes
That’s it.Why This Book?
Because one of James Clear’s best ideas is this:
“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.”This is not a formal class and there are no experts in the room.
Just a group of people exploring what happens when we make small changes — and support each other along the way.
