Think about it: every day, millions of people wake up at 6 am or even earlier to be on time in their jobs.

Do you think they muster self-discipline for 5 days a week, 20–21 days a month, and about 220 days a year to wake up?

It’s not that they are positively anticipating a day at work. 70% of employees are not engaged in their work. That is in the USA, where this rate is the best in the world. They reluctantly drag their butts off their beds and grudgingly go to work they don’t like or even loathe.

Why? Because they have appropriate habits, not because they exercise their self-discipline every day.

You Need Better Habits

Habits are not optional. The trigger appears, and the activity follows. When an alarm clock rings, employees wake up and go to work. They don’t ponder if this is a good day for work. 70% of them don’t consider any day fitting to work. They just do it.
