My Question
How do I evolve from the old version of me?
I started my career as a data analyst. Immediately upon starting, I wanted out. Unfortunately, the market was not interested in me (read: no other offers).
On the route to becoming more “attractive” in all manners of that word, I realized the faults in my system:
I would get a jolt of inspiration // motivation.
Go all in.
Fizzle out.
Repeat.
To make matters worse, the longer I stayed in my position as a data analyst, the more other people saw me as that.
Often, the preconceived notions of your environment make it harder to become what you envisioned. Beyond that, I wanted to be less affected by the winds of “motivation” and become consistent with goals that mattered to me.
I needed to build a better system. Through better habits.

Systems that make it easy also make you accountable because it is so tightly integrated into your life.
Everything compounds and the outcome is a lagging indicator of compounded habits.
