I Am All About Habits and This is Why
People often think change comes from big, dramatic moves. A new system. A clean slate. A sudden burst of motivation.
But in my experience — in business and in life — it is habits that do the heavy lifting.
You don’t run 50km from nothing
When I was training for ultra-marathons, I didn’t just wake up one day and decide to run 50km.
There was a clear, methodical plan.
A schedule
Rest days
Gradual increases
And importantly — I did not create that plan myself.
I had someone who knew what they were doing build it for me, because I didn’t.
That is exactly how I look at business.
You do not go from chaos to calm overnight.
You do not fix cash flow with one good month.
You do not erase years of stress with one spreadsheet.
You build habits.
Small, boring, consistent habits (the ones that actually work)
Here’s what that looks like in real life — not theory.
Tax debt broken into bite-size pieces
Instead of avoiding it or hoping it will magically disappear, we set up small, regular payments. No drama. No panic. Just progress.
Money put away each week into superannuation
Not because it feels exciting — but because future-me matters. Tiny weekly amounts add up far faster than people expect.
Weekly follow-ups on quotes
Not when I “get around to it”. Not when things slow down.
Every week. Because consistency creates cash flow.
Looking ahead instead of reacting
What jobs are coming up?
What bills will land soon?
What does next month actually look like?
This habit alone reduces stress more than any fancy software ever could.
Budgeting for the future, not just surviving the present
Planning ahead means fewer surprises, fewer late nights, and better decisions — especially when business is busy.
Habits create momentum
None of these habits are glamorous. They don’t make great highlight reels. But together they change everything!
They turn overwhelm into clarity.
They turn “I’ll deal with it later” into “I’ve got this”.
They turn business owners into confident decision-makers.
This is why I do what I do
I am not here to overhaul your entire life.
I’m here to help you:
Build habits that actually stick
Put systems around the things you’re already doing
Break big, scary problems into manageable steps
Just like training for a long race — the goal isn’t to sprint. It is to show up, week after week, and trust the process.
Because habits aren’t boring. They are powerful.
