Drawing on insights from The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey and Atomic Habits by James Clear, Melissa shares how to: See habits as stewardship of the gifts God has entrusted to us Shift from goal-chasing to identity-based habits that stick Use habit stacking to add new rhythms without adding extra time Shape your environment so your habits become easy and natural Track and celebrate habits with a planner (and why that matters!) Embrace progress over perfection when habits slip Friend, your habits are shaping your life right now — but with God’s help, you get to choose the kind of life you’re building, one small step at a time. 🗓️ Get your FREE Anchored with Purpose Planner for the last 4 months of the year! https://anchored-with-purpose.kit.com/befd76a8d2
