Early career professionals don’t need rescuing. They need foundations . The science Behaviour science is very clear on this. Habits formed earlier in adulthood are more likely to persist because they become identity-linked, not task-based. Research on habit formation shows that repeated

Full inboxes. Big expectations. Quiet pressure to make this year count. Here’s the reframe I’m sharing with leaders this week. The best years aren’t launched with intensity, they’re built with intention. January doesn’t need grand declarations or heroic routines…it needs rhythm. What the science keeps reminding us 👇 Behaviour change research shows that small, repeatable actions are far more likely to stick than ambitious resets (Lally et al., 2010 - https://psycnet.apa.org/r
