WASTE 33 YEARSWASTE 33 YEARSHow I was on pace to
of my life
@imrane @escapeyourdeskjob
(and what I did about it)
Early last year, I
realized I had a

No matter what I
tried, I was a
CHRONICPROCASTINATOR
As a former productivity consultant
for a big consulting firm, this was...
Why the f*** isshe so happy?
EMBARASSING
So for 2 weeks, I recorded
each and everything I did
If ISlept
Ate
Shat
Bathed
Read books
Watched movies
It didn't matter,
I recorded
EVERY-MINUTE
At the end of the
two weeks, I
added up the
numbers...
WTF, who still uses these?
and guess
what...
I was wasting
41%of my life
Life
On things like
Imagine almost
HALF
of my life would be spent on these
things if I kept going
And I'm not alone
The average American watches
4 hours of TV every night
...and another 2 hours is spent on
social media
5 bucks, says this is Tinder
And we are paying the price
physically
financially and
emotionally
We now sleep 20% less than
people did 60 years ago
We spend 25% less time with
family than just 30 years ago
And because of that we are...D

But back to
Me
I needed to do something
BADLY
Or risk not
accomplishing
anything with
my life
So I started
of research into
behavioural
change
Months
I studied ideas from BJ Fogg, a professor in
behaviour modification for the last 20 years
...to gurus like Robin Sharma, Tim
Ferriss, Seinfeld and Tony Robbins
to see what they do
and finally found the
Answerin

Did you
know that
of your day is spent
MINDLESSLYrunning through
habits
Like that can of pop you
have everyday for lunch
Think about it
Don't you
visit the same
websites every
morning after you
reach work?
Don't you start your
day the same way?
(maybe a bagel and coffee)
Don't you talk
with the same
coworkers about
the same stuff
everyday?
We don't think about these
things because our
brains use habitsto reduce our
mental load
...and as we get older,
our routines become
more firm and
harder to change
This can lead us towards
like our habits of
eating a salad for
lunch
positive outcomes
or towards
like having a double,
fat, triple fudge
double dipper,
decadent cafe
laaaattee every
morning
negative outcomes
OKNow, let's talk
about two things
1What is a habit?
and the two ways to break them
2The two things I did that
changed my life, forever
4There are
parts to any habit
1 What is a habit?
Let's use an example from everyones live's to demonstrate
The Habit of Checking Facebook

the cue
Think checking Facebook in

RewardThe
What we get or feel
for following through
That feeling of being connected
and satisfying out FOMO (fear of missing out)

Now, next time we get the cue, we
immediately CRAVE the reward
