    The app demonstration at the end was so good and so creative. Well done James. For those who haven't read Atomic Habits yet, do so now! I guarantee you, it will be the least thing you are going to regret. The book is worth the time and money for sure.

    “Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.” I also like using the meditation workbook called 30 Days to Reduce Stress by Harper Daniels for building a mindfulness habit.
