Apologies, recording started late due to technical issues. Atomic Habits by James Clear was discussed in relation to the spiritual path by Ayya Karunika at the book club on Saturday, 24th May 2025. Ayya explored how the concept of the “aggregation of marginal gains” (p. 13) can be used to enhance our daily practice. She offered a brief yet insightful overview of the four laws of behavior change (pp. 43–55), showing how they can support the cultivation of wholesome habits while helping us abandon unwholesome ones. She also introduced practical strategies such as habit stacking (pp. 72–79) as effective methods for integrating the Buddha's teachings into daily routine. In addition, she explained in detail how to apply the noble eightfold path in daily life and discussed the importance of focusing on systems rather than goals (pp. 23–28) in order to achieve better results in meditation and to strengthen overall progress on the spiritual path. Bhikkhuni Ayya Kārunikā is currently the senior resident monastic at Santi Forest Monastery, NSW, Australia and the spiritual director for New Zealand Bhikkhuni Sangha Trust, Hamilton. She has been in monastic life for over 14 years and she received her full ordination as a bhikkhunī in 2014 at Dhammasara Nuns monastery in Western Australia where she lived and trained for over a decade with Ajahn Hāsapaññā. She has been a student of Ajahn Brahm and Ajahn Brahmali for over 2 decades. Ayya Kārunikā is able to articulate the Buddhist teachings in a way that is practical and comprehensible to people of all ages and has experience in conducting retreats for both adults and youth. While she has a PhD in Microbiology and worked as a scientist, she has also been the building project manager for the construction of the Dhammasara Nuns Monastery main building complex and has worked with many volunteers over the years. Ayya Kārunikā was born in Sri Lanka but has been living and working in Australia for over 2 decades. She has a passion to share her experience and knowledge and loves working with people and also doing creative projects. She is dedicated to supporting the growth of Bhikkhunis around the world and is currently involved in projects to support the establishment of places for Bhikkhunis in Theravada forest tradition in Australia, New Zealand, Poland and Sri Lanka.  Please visit the Santi Forest Youtube Channel and Santi Forest Monastery website Support us on https://ko-fi.com/thebuddhistsocietyofwa BSWA teachings are available: BSWA Teachings BSWA Podcast Channel BSWA DeeperDhamma Podbean Channel BSWA YouTube

Friend, this week was juicy and necessary. First off, I gave y'all some homework—yes, homework. Go listen to Atomic Habits and please, if you're struggling with your mental health, talk to a therapist. We love healing over here. Dex gave us all the feels with her recap of her Cowboy Carter trip with her daughter—bonding, Beyoncé, boots and Black girl joy. In our Womanhood segment, we had to touch on B. Simone getting dragged again. This time it's ‘cause she wore coochie cutters in church. The internet lost its mind. But let's be real—why is she catching heat when she's bringing people to Christ in her own way? Stop being hypocrites. Then we had to unpack all this DV mess in the news—Diddy, DDG, Tory Lanez... it's nonstop. The way some men are reacting, like there's a war on them, is wild. There's a real lack of understanding around what abuse even is. Dex and I both asked the real question: why are so many men still blaming women instead of addressing their own violence? In our Motherhood segment, whew chile—Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert's divorce drama got messy. Iman reported her for violating their agreement, and now she might face jail time... even though she let him slide when he did the same thing. Petty much? Oh—and before I forget, we wanna see y'all IRL. We're planning some in-person events, just for the ladies.

Learn how to implement small, consistent changes to achieve goals related to wealth, health, and relationships, drawing insights from James Clear's “Atomic Habits.” Discover practical strategies for tracking progress and building an identity that supports long-term success.

Build Habits Around Identity: Align your habits with the person you want to become (e.g., “become a reader” instead of “read a book”). Use a Habit Tracker: Create a simple habit tracker with yes/no checkboxes to monitor consistency in intangible areas. Prioritize Leading Indicators: Track leading indicators (e.g., meal prepping for weight loss) rather than lagging metrics (e.g., weight loss itself). Embrace Small Wins: Recognize that significant progress often starts with small, consistent actions. Measurement doesn't have to be numeric.

In this episode of Midweek Motivation, David gets real about the kind of training that doesn't get likes on social media — the cold, quiet, ordinary miles. You know, the ones where you lace up before dawn, even when you're tired, sore, or just not feeling it. He reminds us why boring runs are the foundation of breakthrough performance and why ordinary effort, done consistently, is anything but small. David breaks down four powerful truths: Consistency builds capacity – showing up, even when it's not glamorous, is where real growth happens. Boring runs train your mindset – mental endurance is forged in the quiet miles, not race-day hype. Small efforts compound over time – like compound interest, daily discipline adds up to massive long-term gains. Love the process, not just the finish line – fulfillment comes from the journey, not just the medal. He also shares insights from Atomic Habits and research from Strava and Frontiers in Psychology, plus a reminder from Galatians 6:9 to keep doing good — both in running and in life — because the harvest is coming.

Throughout his career, John has worked in Hollywood, the heart of Silicon Valley, and ran his boutique law firm in the San Francisco Bay Area, catering to small business owners and entrepreneurs. Since 2012, John has been the host of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast, where he has interviewed hundreds of CEOs, founders, authors, and entrepreneurs, including Peter Diamandis, Adam Grant, Gary Vaynerchuk, and Marie Forleo. John is also the Co-founder of Rise25, a company that connects B2B businesses with their ideal clients, referral partners, and strategic partners. They help their clients generate ROI through their done-for-you podcast service. In this episode… Many business owners set ambitious goals but struggle to achieve consistent results. Often, the missing ingredient isn't motivation — it's systems. Without clear processes and the right tools, even the most driven professionals can find themselves overwhelmed, misaligned, or spinning their wheels. John Corcoran tackles this issue head-on by emphasizing the importance of developing repeatable systems to build discipline and scale sustainably. Drawing inspiration from Atomic Habits by James Clear, John shares how he's applied simple, effective strategies to automate key business functions — such as using ActiveCampaign to build educational email sequences that nurture leads automatically. He also highlights the value of documenting every company process, crediting Adi Klevit of Business Success Consulting Group for helping companies create SOPs that enable smooth delegation and operational resilience. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as Chad Franzen interviews John Corcoran, Co-founder of Rise25, about the systems, habits, and relationships that support business growth. John discusses how to build stronger habits, the value of marketing automation, the role of process documentation, and the growing need for genuine human interaction in the AI era.

Notes from James:I don't care if you've never written a word before—if you've lived, you have a story worth telling.

I remember the first time I “Marie Kondoed” my therapy room and got rid of materials that were published before I was born. There were shelves of things I never used, and having so many options created unnecessary decision fatigue every time I sat down to plan my week ahead. Over time, I started investing in knowledge instead of flashcards and games. I found my students did better when I kept it simple. I thought my students would be bored, but they actually became more engaged and independent. That's why I was so excited to talk with Marisha Mets from SLP Now, who shares my passion for systems and frameworks that don't require complicated materials. Marisha Mets earned her Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Washington. She has worked as a school-based SLP and shares therapy ideas and resources on her blog (SLP Now).

Create great self-service tools to help your buyers make buying decisions. The buyer's journey - They want to know what it will cost. So, tell them. Have a client story for every objection. Collect them. Tell those stories. The story of Steve Sheinkopf and Yale Appliance… ($37m to over $100m). “That means obsessing over their questions, fears, worries, and concerns. Answer every single question honestly and transparently, right there on your website, for everyone to see.” “Tackle topics your competitors are afraid to touch. Break the unwritten rules of your industry. When you focus solely on empowering your buyers with the information and experience they crave, something incredible will happen: You'll earn their trust. And when you earn their trust, you earn their business. Do this consistently, and you'll capture the market's attention, transform your company, and see numbers you never imagined.” The 5 Components of Endless Customers: The Right Content The Right Website The Right Sales Activity The Rich Technology The Right Culture of Performance Path Finders - Help others come up with solutions. Your favorite mentor didn't tell you the answers, they helped you figure it out on your own (by asking you questions). The #1 thing that will dictate your income is your ability to communicate. As Morgan Housel would say, “Best story wins.” It is worth it to work on this skill. The excuse that you don't have enough time is lame and not true. Focus on becoming a better writer and speaker. It's too important not to. Piece of feedback most often given - Say that, but in half the words. Be concise. Be willing to say what others won't. And the idea of going direct. Go Direct – Viral essay written by LuLu Cheng Meservey. Going direct means crafting and telling your own story, without being dependent on intermediaries. Marcus called me by my name (both Hawk and Ryan) a lot during our conversation. It felt natural and flowed well. It worked. This is taught in sales training and can feel manipulative if not done well. Listen to how Marcus used my name enough to make me feel special, but not too much that it felt like a sales tactic to get me to like him. Book title = "I want. I wish." I want Atomic Habits. I wish I had "Endless Customers."

Let's talk about how to form new habits that stick. Okay, okay, I'm curious… raise your hand if you were totally fired up at the beginning of this month to start afresh, change your life, or maybe flip one or two bad habits into better ones? Yup, me too. Now, keep your hand raised if you stuck with it all? Energetically, I just felt a ton of hands went down all around the world… woof, me too! I think if we step back and zoom out a bit, we'd see that there is so much more at play here then what we thought at first glance.  Why do we, as humans, seem to have a hard time setting and sticking with new habits? First off, let's look at the data. Many studies have been done on New Year's resolutions but let's take a look at this one. John Norcross of the National Library of Medicine states that people typically have an 81% failure rate when it comes to their New Year's resolutions.  81%!! That's basically saying, 4 out of 5 people who set one don't stick with them, but rather fall back into their old habits and patterns before they know it. But why is that? Author James Clear (of Atomic Habits) has some ideas here… he believes there are 5 common mistakes that cause new habits to fail: Trying to change everything at once Instead, try to pick one thing and do it well. Starting with a habit that is too big It's better to make this new habit super small and easy where you just can't say no. Seeking a result, not a ritual …meaning it's better to focus on changing the behavior, not the outcome. So, to translate… if you've got a goal to read 20 books this year, you focus on the fact that you are now someone who reads a book for the last 10 minutes of your day, right before bed. Make sense? Not changing your environment  Rather, consider building an environment that promotes good habits.  As James puts it… “it is nearly impossible to remain positive all of the time if you are constantly surrounded by negative people.” Assuming small changes don't add up.  James suggests just trying to “get one percent better each day.” That's it, simple.  Teeny tiny incremental behavior changes each and every day are the true way to get to where you want to go. You can do this, I believe in you. It's time to SIMPLIFY. Show notes available with all links mentioned here: https://www.thesimplifiers.com/posts/b154-how-to-form-new-habits-that-stick-all-star
