It’s that time of year again when everyone starts turning their attention towards one thing; habit formation. But how do you start? Close personal friend of the show, Gretchen Rubin (we wish) has some ideas. She literally wrote the book on it. This week, Catherine and Donald go over Gretchen Rubin’s first four strategies of habit formation and relate them to weight loss, health, and fitness. What kind of accountability do you thrive on? How do you distinguish yourself? What should you monitor? The answers await. Plus, Donald lobbies The Earth, Catherine becomes “Cathy Goulash”, and Big Mattress tells you where to sleep.
