Today, we’re diving into Think Again by Adam Grant, a powerful book that challenges our tendency to hold on to old ways of thinking and encourages us to embrace rethinking. As small business owners, the ability to question and adapt our beliefs, strategies, and approaches can be the difference between thriving and merely surviving.

Today, we’re diving into James Clear’s best-selling book, Atomic Habits. Now, if you’re running a small business, you know that success doesn’t happen overnight. It’s the small, consistent actions—the ‘atomic habits’—that compound over time to create big results. Today, we’ll break down James’ book into six key takeaways, specifically tailored for small business owners. We’ll give you an overview and an action item for each point so you can implement these strategies immediately.

“Whatever you're doing today, do it with the confidence of a 4-year-old in a Batman t-shirt."

Have you ever seen a 4-year-old wearing a Batman t-shirt? That kid doesn’t just think they’re wearing a cool shirt—they genuinely believe they are Batman: no doubts, no fears, just pure, unshakable confidence.

Now, imagine approaching your day with that same level of confidence. Too many of us hold back because we’re caught up in our own heads. We’re worried about what others think, scared of making mistakes, and it’s paralyzing us.
