Day 4: James Clear Your Year—Habits That Stick

• The 4 stages of habit formation: Cue, Craving, Response, Reward
• James Clear's 7 best tips + 2 personal mantras
• Real success stories:
  • How Mike became a runner: one mile he couldn't finish → 50K trail race
  • How I became vegetarian 14 years ago and why it stuck
• Identity shift: BE a reader, not "read more"
• Power of environment and community
• Your action: Identify 1-3 habits and build systems to support them

Day 5: Manifestation & Who You Want to BE

• The neuroscience of manifestation (Dr. James Doty)
• My manifestation story: from hardest season to incredible opportunities
• Oprah's wisdom: "You become what you believe"
• The 6 steps to manifest (get clear, ask, be flexible, do the work, release limiting beliefs, lean into joy)
• James Clear: "Every action is a vote for the type of person you want to be"
• Your action: Who do you want to BE? (Not what you want to do)

Day 6 BONUS: Ikigai & Job Sharing

• What is Ikigai? Japanese philosophy for finding purpose
• The 4 circles: What you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, what you can be paid for
• The Ikigai exercise: Find careers at the intersection
• What is job sharing? Partnership sharing one full-time role
• My story: Nearly a decade in 24/7 media
• 6 things job sharing gave me:
  1. Leave work at work (truly unplug)
  2. Goodbye to guilt
  3. SuperTeam results
  4. Organic boundaries
  5. Equality at home (most profound)
  6. Work BFF (#1 factor for work happiness)
• How job sharing might support your Ikigai
• Your action: Complete the Ikigai exercise, reflect on job sharing

You did it! You've reflected, let go, chosen your word, set goals, learned habit science, explored manifestation, decided who you want to BE, and discovered your Ikigai.

Most people never do this work. But you showed up.

Remember: You become what you believe. This year is yours. 💛
