Mindset strategy series #3 - Cast a vote

Part 3 of the mini-series of mindset strategies is 'cast a vote'.

This phrasing comes from the book Atomic Habits by James Clear, where he talks about 'casting a vote for the person you want to be'.

In this week's episode we take a look at how we can use small habits to reinforce a part of our identity that is important to us. Related quotes that we dig into is Aristotle's 'we are what we repeatedly do... excellence, therefore, is a habit, and not an act' (though it turns out this wasn't actually an Aristotle quote!), and Admiral William McRaven's 'make your bed' from his famous commencement speech.

You've got to love a quote, but to lift them off the bumper sticker and into our lives we need to look at how we can apply them in reality and that's exactly what this episode (and all the episodes in this series) aims to do.
