Episode description

Starting a new habit isn’t just about discipline—it’s about design. In this Monday Motivation episode, we break down the habit loop from The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg—cue, routine, reward—and how linking your craving for coffee to a simple action like writing can build momentum. Manu shares a personal example of using this exact loop to write daily, thanks to a helpful tip from his coach.

 

Key Takeaways:

✅ The habit loop—cue, routine, reward—is the foundation of behavior change

✅ Motivation grows when habits are tied to things we already crave

✅ Small actions, repeated consistently, rewire our routines
