Choose one repeatable behavior, shape the environment around it, and create a plan for restarting when the old pattern pushes back.\nResources\nDownload the FREE Small Wins Success System at:\nYourLifeSystems.com\nWatch the video this episode is based on.\nConnect\nIf this episode helped you think differently about behavior change, subscribe to Your Life Systems and share it with someone who wants to make a change but keeps getting pulled back toward the familiar.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/qFD7160wttgygoxnfmmOa4OVdtoEyyMdgxvPpKu95Vc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zYWE0/NGM1OWUxYmM0M2Fk/YWZmOGZhMDE0MTg1/ZmNlNi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
