A Big If

Habits. You have them. Like getting out of bed in the morning and brushing your teeth. Or having pizza every Friday. Or writing something, perhaps anything, for One Typed Page. So much of what you do is habit-based. And if (this is a pretty big “if” here), and if you want to change your life you need to change your habits. It does not take much effort if (another big if to be found here) you go about it in a way that makes it somewhat “easy.”

You may notice that I do not have a typing for One Typed Page habit. Others do. Boy do they ever and they remain a joy to read. Every Day. I do have that habit, reading a favorite author or two every day: A great thing about One Typed Page is allowing all of us to become producers. It is not like watching YouTube, a very easy habit to fall into.

Back to those “if” statements, there is a book called Atomic Habits, from James Clear. The atomic in the title here referred to as a dictionary says, “very small; infinitesimal” and what the author suggests is indeed this type of atomic. And yes, the pun of the power source is there here.

I recommend it.

PS – Inktober is illustrated in the image I have included. A napkin? Yes, all of his ink drawings are on napkins. And they are all done really well, like this one. Now through the end of the month on Instagram.
