💻 Designer ⚡️ Founder @joinambitious 🧠 Designing a better way to build new habits.

[Danny Walcoff @dwalcoff]

Forming new habits alone is hard. Doing it in groups can be a game changer.

I'm excited to share more about what I've learned with @joinambitious. This is just a start. If you're into habits, goals, and personal growth, I think you'll love what's coming.

Accountability is based on interdependence. Create the conditions where everyone’s participation is necessary to make something happen.

[Sam Altman @sama]

there are a lot of things you want to do that you are never going to get done.

embracing that is the key to accomplishing the things you *really* want to do.

“When you are stuck, explain your problem to others. Often simply laying out a problem will present a solution. Make ‘explaining the problem’ part of your troubleshooting process.” – @kevin2kelly, Excellent Advice for Living, https://t.co/oBsesON49P #excellentadvice

Real, meaningful, lasting change happens with other people – people with shared challenges, shared ambitions, and a shared commitment.

Form one new habit at a time and iterate until it becomes automatic.

[Danny Walcoff @dwalcoff]

@tferriss Good habits are effortless (easy to start), engaging (satisfying to do), and effective (rewarding to complete).

Design each element to form a good habit:
Behavior (what)
Motivation (why)
Time (when)
Environment (where)
People (who)
Tools (how)

@tfadell At @joinambitious we help people design and schedule habits just like this into their busy days. It’s essential to make time rather than hoping to find it.

[Danny Walcoff @dwalcoff]

@simonsinek Trying is essential.

@5harath As a solo entrepreneur @joinambitious, the thing that’s helped most with perseverance is having a group to share my work with – a group that uses the product and gives their time to talk through new ideas regularly. Find a way to create this type of group for yourself.

@markmanson The perception of growth being painful is exactly what keeps so many of us from taking action. It doesn’t have to be painful. There can be a small, simple next step that moves you forward slowly, gently, and effectively.

@jwmares @GoodEggs is nailing this with delivery

@IndieMohit @bubble @squarespace for a landing page 👌

@joinambitious is entirely built with @zapier @googlecalendar @googlesheets and @SlackHQ with the goal of delivering value through tools people already use.

[Danny Walcoff @dwalcoff]

@arvidkahl Right on. I’ve stuck with 1:1 onboarding calls for every member of @joinambitious using @Calendly.

Use Mindful CBT to get unstuck:

1. Identify the thought that's making you feel uneasy.
2. Examine the evidence for and against this thought.
3. Develop a new interpretation based on the data.
