James Clear – Habits Academy

Professionals are the architects of their habits. Amateurs are the victims of their habits.

Imagine two versions of yourself, 5 years into the future. What would your life be like if you continued to repeat your bad habits each day? What would life look like in five years if you stuck with good habits each day?

From day to day, you may not recognize the effects of your habits.

If you go to the gym for an hour today, you don’t expect your fitness to transform overnight. If you work late and ignore your partner and children today, you don’t expect your family to fall apart overnight.

But, looking at the span of 5 years, it’s easy to see how our everyday habits add up to something more.

Bad habits make time your enemy. Good habits make time your ally.

The habits you repeat (or don’t repeat) every day largely determine your health, wealth, and happiness. Knowing how to change your habits means knowing how to confidently own and manage your days, focus on the behaviors that have the highest impact, and reverse-engineer the life you want.

Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement. The Habits Academy will show you how and where to invest for the biggest gains.

Introducing, The Habits Academy.

A scientific guide for the person who  wants to achieve greatness.

The Habits Academy is the most practical, effective, and science-backed course on behavior change ever created. Each of the 40+ lessons covers powerful ways to change your habits based on proven scientific research.

Master your habits:

• Break your bad habits. Identify the root causes of your bad habits and cut them off at the source.
• Make good habits stick. Get a simple plan to overhaul your habits and create habits that last.
• Stop procrastinating. Get proven methods that make it easier to get ed and follow through on what you set out to do.
• Overcome failure and setbacks. Learn how to bounce back from adversity and get back on track quickly when you fall off the wagon.
• Harness motivation and follow through on your goals. Learn how to follow through on what you set out to do, whether you’re feeling motivated or not.

Then, watch as simple habits compound to life-changing results:

• The habit of writing every day compounds to a finished novel.
• The habit of saving $100/month compounds to six figures in the bank.
• The habit of working out three times per week compounds to being in the best shape of your life.
• The habit of introducing yourself compounds to a fulfilling social life.
• The habit of emailing potential clients compounds to a thriving freelance business.

Plain and simple, this course will help you improve your habits, and in turn, improve your life. Even if you don’t have much time. Even if you aren’t sure how to begin. And even if you have failed in the past.

If it doesn’t live up to your expectations, we’ll gladly give you 100% of your money back.

The Habits Academy will teach you simple ways to change your daily routines and optimize for success.

But you don’t have to take my word for it.

The ideas taught inside The Habits Academy have been used to train leaders at major organizations as well as thousands of individual students.

From individual students to massive companies, these ideas have helped more than 5,700 people.

Billy ed exercising more consistently and quit his habit of eating junk food every day.

“Honestly, this is one of the most practical and actionable classes I’ve taken, no exaggeration.

I love the bite-sized lessons. They’re easy to consume and put into action. I’ve already ed exercising more consistently and am building a handful of habits that I think will make the biggest impact in my life.

The course also helped me get over a frustrating bad habit of eating candy bars or junk around 2 to 3 p.m. everyday. I learned how to used the Notecard Method for bad habits to try and nail them down. I ed experimenting, and by eating a slice of avocado with lunch, the good fat filled me up with no cravings until I got home for dinner.”

Erik has made more progress on his book in the last 25 days than he had in the previous 10 years.

“My goal was to become a writer and I have set up a consistent system for writing, so far 3 days missed in 25 and I have made more progress than the last 10 years on this project.

I enjoyed the course a lot, the lectures are brief, but most of them give something to think about a lot more than the short lecture. Very practical to implement, very well thought-through structure. I can certainly recommend taking this course if you are interested in creating strong habits and understanding how to do so.”

Daniel had given up on making new habits—until this course helped him going to the gym more often.

“I really enjoyed the course. The habit I decided to work on was to go to the gym more often. I decided on going Monday through Friday and just run on the treadmill for 1 to 1.5 miles. I still have times when I miss a workout, but I’ve been going pretty consistently for the past 3 weeks. I’ve been tracking my mile times as well and making good progress there.

I’ve honestly never had much success despite all the books and articles I’ve read over the years. And prior to the course, I was kind of at a point where I had given up on making new habits. I was just tired of failing.

But I ed the course anyways and it just made sense to me. I’m pretty logical when it comes to most things, so I liked that the course didn’t talk about getting motivated or ‘you need to want it.’”

Jan got rid of her bad habit of sleeping past her alarm.

“Learning how to build good habits and how to get rid of bad habits is a key skill for success in life and work, in my opinion. The information on how to acquire this skill is out there, but there are two major problems: One, it’s scattered among tons of individual studies, books, blog posts, and so on, and two, it’s rarely presented in an actionable format. With his program, James does an admirable job of solving both of these problems. He pulls together and integrates the key insights from both science and practitioners, and presents them in an integrated fashion that is focused on applying his advice right away. I loved the short, to-the-point video lessons and the examples James provided on how to apply each lesson. Using James’s advice, I managed to rid myself of my long-standing bad habit of sleeping past my alarm in the morning. I’m holding a Ph.D. in psychology and have been studying habits for a few years now, but I have never come across any other resource that is as complete, focused, and actionable as James’s program.

Donn is sticking to his writing habit – even when life gets hectic.

“James Clear’s Habit Academy was time well spent. I’m using these lessons to write regularly. The lesson about scaling down the time dedicated to your new habit during a hectic period rather than miss a day was very useful. I’ve been able to to maintain a string writing days during hectic periods. I’ve used another habit to schedule a specific day, place, and time to write as well. I’m gaining traction in my writing, which is very encouraging. I’m finding ways to apply these lessons in other areas of my life. The lessons are clear and easy to digest. I intend to go back over the lessons again. Thanks, James!”
