Did you know that nearly half of your daily behavior is habit-driven? So often, we go through our days on autopilot, not realizing that we’re reinforcing habitual ways of thinking, being, and behaving with our every word and action. The way that you respond to stress, how you approach setting and making progress towards your goals, and even your patterns of thinkings when you’re problem-solving, are all habit-driven. If your habits are based in fear, worry, and anxiety? You’re likely to feel more pressure and stress, less joy and ease. That’s where the Courage Habit comes in.
The Courage Habit is a proactive, doable program in addressing where fear-based habits have you stuck. You’ll learn how to recognize the four most common fear patterns, and more importantly, what the research indicates we can do about those patterns to release them. You’ll see more focus and emotional resilience as you implement these simple daily behaviors in your life–and with consistent practice, you’ll develop courageous habits that add up to a courageous life.
“Do you feel the need for a change in your life — a new job, a new purpose? Don’t let fear hold you back. You too can find the courage to change with the wisdom collected by Kate Swoboda in this helpful, cheerful, and delightfully readable book.”
