Most people don’t fail because they lack motivation — they fail because they rely on it. In this episode of the Training Day Podcast, we explore the real reason so many people get stuck, fall off track, or keep starting over: their habits.We break down the core principles from three of the most powerful books on behaviour and performance — Atomic Habits, The Compound Effect, and The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. You’ll learn why small, consistent actions lead to massive long-term results, how to build habits that actually stick, and why bad habits repeat even when you’re desperate to change.We also dive into the now-famous metaphor of doubling a penny 27 times to reach over $1 million, showing how compounding works not just in money — but in every area of life. This episode is packed with practical, real-world examples for creating lasting habits, designing better environments, and finally building a system that works for you, not against you.If you’re tired of relying on willpower, not seeing results fast enough, or feeling like you’re always starting over — this episode will shift your mindset and give you a clear path forward.This isn’t about hype. It’s about structure. When your habits work, your goals become inevitable.📕 Books discussed in this episode:Atomic Habits by James ClearThe Compound Effect by Darren HardyThe 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R.
