We are what we repeatedly do.
But habits aren’t just actions – they’re stories we tell ourselves.
The morning coffee ritual isn’t about caffeine. It’s about starting the day right.
The evening run isn’t about fitness. It’s about proving you can push through discomfort. It’s about doing what you say you’re going to do.
The nightly social media scroll isn’t about connection. It’s about avoiding silence, about not being bored becuause we’re afraid.
Our habits reveal our beliefs about who we are and what we’re capable of.
Want to change your story? Change your habits.
Change your life.
Small, consistent actions compound over time. They shape our identity more than any grand gesture or declaration.
It’s like the carousel at the Dunedin mix, barely moving. You can’t even tell. But If you pick a person and look back at that same spot after just a few minutes, they’re already half way around.
Or a boat floating in the marina, the current is ever so slightly pushing the boat this way or that way, and eventually it’s spun around and we didn’t even realize it.
What tiny habit could you start today?
What story would it tell?
