A Question: What kind of person are you being this year?
"Last Friday was National Quitters Day.
The point in January when a lot of New Year’s resolutions quietly fall apart.
I don’t think most people quit because they lack discipline.
I think they quit because they try to optimize before something is actually installed.
🧠 A reminder I’ve been sitting with:
You can’t optimize a habit that doesn’t exist yet.
We want the clean system.
The perfect routine.
The most efficient version.
But we’re often trying to refine something that hasn’t become normal yet.
I see this pattern a lot.
And I catch myself in it too.
✅ Habits that feel solid and embodied for me right now:
🟢 Morning routine
🟢 Meditation
🟢 Working out
🟢 Morning time with my wife
These don’t require much effort anymore.
They’re just part of my day.
🛠️ Habits I’m actively installing right now:
Not improving.
Not streamlining.
Installing.
🟡 Morning and evening Skool check ins
One for presence
One for intentional outreach
🟡 A simple weekly posting rhythm
Repeatable
Almost boring on purpose
🟡 A layered planning approach
Rough draft at the start of the quarter
Second pass the month before
Final adjustments during the month
With room for real life to shape things
What’s been humbling is how often I want to optimize these too early.
Templates.
Tools.
Timing tweaks.
All useful.
Just not yet.
🚶 Last week was a good reminder that momentum matters more than precision.
Movement installs habits.
Refinement comes later.
Once something is in motion, optimization helps.
Before that, it often just slows things down.
🪞There’s also an identity layer here that feels important.
Habits tend to stick when they match who we believe we are becoming.
Not because we force them.
But because they feel natural to maintain.
If you want to share:
What’s one habit you’ve been trying to improve before it’s actually installed?
Or said another way:
What kind of person are you practicing being this year?"
