According to Tony Schwartz, the author of Be Excellent at Anything, habits control most of our lives.
Fully 95% of our behavior occurs out of habit, either unconsciously or in reaction to external demands.
We’re run by the automatic processes of the primitive parts of the brain far more than we rely on the complex conscious capacities of our prefrontal cortex.
We think we’re in charge of our lives, but we’re not.
If habits are truly this powerful, no doubt they’re affecting your daily recruiting activities.
What you’re choosing to do, what you’re not choosing to do, and what you’re avoiding all become habitual.
Powerful and prophetic, good habits equip you to perform at a high level and bad habits keep you stuck in mediocrity.
