This is my favorite newsletter from you.

I’ve already been applying it in some areas but these days I just got a big “external vote” against what I was becoming (in a sea of mine and others’ “good votes”) which made it quite confusing and chaotic – just knowing about this made the solution clear as day!

Thank you so much! You are a lifesaver!

This was such a powerful breakdown of identity-based change, Jim. 🙌 I especially resonated with the idea that “every small action is a vote for who you're becoming.” It reframes habit-building from something we have to force into something we embody.

One practice I’ve found helpful is combining these micro-identity shifts with journaling prompts—asking myself daily: “What small action did I take today that aligned with who I want to become?” Over time, those reflections help me see subtle progress that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Also love the reminder about the WOOP framework—such a game changer for anticipating inner resistance.

Thanks for another brain-expanding post! 👏

Curious to hear what micro-identity shifts others in the community are working on!

Great post! Today I’ll take a five-minute walk after lunch. Just to remind myself I’m a person who pauses and reconnects.

The best text yet! It meant to me a lot. Even if I heard about this before, but the way you wrote it I understood that much better and it's much easier for me to implement this. Thank you 🙏🏻
