In today's episode, Anne delves into the topic of change and habits, exploring why change is often perceived as difficult and how habits play a significant role in our daily lives. She touches on the three levels of commitment involved in breaking or installing habits: cognitive, emotional, and identity levels. Anne emphasizes the importance of identity hacking to maintain lasting change, drawing examples from smoking cessation, exercise routines, and alcohol recovery. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Personal growth leads to fulfilment, and embracing change is essential for growth.

• Habits, whether good or bad, play a significant role in our daily lives and can be challenging to change.

• Understanding the three levels of commitment (cognitive, emotional, and identity) can make breaking or installing habits easier.

• Transformation differs from change in that it involves lasting change, unlike short-term solutions like diet programs.

• Utilizing the identity hack can be a powerful tool in maintaining new habits and achieving long-term success in personal growth.

BEST MOMENTS

"Change always seemed to be a bad thing, a nuisance, something that required extra work. That was until we became accustomed to it and it became a new habit."

"Many entrepreneurs start the day at 5am with a power hour, which could be, for example, 20 minutes of exercise, followed by 20 minutes of meditation, and then 20 minutes of reading or journaling."

"Significantly fewer people smoke now than in the past. That was because the governments stepped in to stop it happening."

"AA, Alcoholics Anonymous, has been enormously successful in helping alcoholics to quit their habit by applying a very famous 12-step system."

"Weight Watchers have an enormous but short-term success rate with their clients. They can't, and don't, promise lasting change. Maybe they don't know about the identity hack."
