Want to Change Your Habits to Boost Success? Start by Changing Your Environment

Entrepreneurs' Organization

Willpower isn’t what changes our behavior. Our environment is. Over the summer I spent a week in what has become one of my favorite places: Park City, Utah. When I wasn’t working, my wife and I spent most of our time walking, hiking , biking and doing other outdoor activities with friends.

Hunter Walk

By that framework I started out as a ‘fan’ of Javier Soltero way before we became friends.
