Jennifer, WOW, we have about 90% of the same habits. Eating together as a family, is a top priority in our family. Overseeing the children’s manners and talking with them about non-school related topics is vital. We set this as a foundational habit that continues as our children graduate and work from home. Keeping their hearts and lovingly connecting with them in conversation is vital. The best conversations take place about current events and how we respond to them as Christians (especially in the workplace.). Fabulous topic shared and thank you for encouraging character building habits for a lifetime. Julie 🌷

I was born to poor, non-English speaking immigrant parents. My parents were not able to read books to me or my siblings, but Mum was an excellent story-teller. I fondly remember the stories that Mum told us kids - stories about her childhood and young adult years, Slavic folklore, her birth country and its people, her journey to a foreign country and much more. My parents instilled in my siblings and I a love of storytelling (fiction and non-fiction) and my most treasured possessions are the children's books my parents gave me as gifts for my birthday or Christmas. The oldest book in my possession is the Enid Blyton book 'Amelia Jane Again'. I was 6 years old when it was given to me by my Dad and this book has been with me for 47 years. My Dad passed away on 1 December 2020 and when I see this book, I remember him.

My best atomic habit over the past year was finding this channel. Through the content of this channel, so beautifully and thoughtfully presented I have turned my packed closet into a capsule wardrobe and I am helping my mom do the same thing, I have finally learned how to do minimal make up so that I can "look presentable always"(before I either had on full, time consuming make up, or nothing at all) I have de cluttered my entire house and for the first time ever, am on a cleaning schedule (I will never go back!) I also have begun intermittent fasting and can't believe how much I love it, I have listened to so much beautiful music, seen so much inspiring art, read so much thought provoking poetry, and had so many lovely books recommended to me. And through this channel, I have discovered other channels I adore. This has been a real life line for me. It's been a doorway into a kinder, more gentle, civilized world my heart always longs for. I have felt so alone and here I have found my people. Thank you.

I wake up early as well, take vitamins, vacuum each morning, exercise 30 min on my recumbent bike and read the Bible then, do two loads of laundry daily, and tidy up thru out the day. My kitchen is clean before I go to bed. I also have a creative outflow valve in my life where I make cards and give sets of them to friends and doctors office staff when I go. Giving helps me be less centered. I am a Jesus girl so that helps. I also have a monthly tea party for friends. Women need a little beauty, scones, tea, and laughter.

I get up early to get a start on things. First is to run laundry. I put it in right away, put on my workwear, scoop the cat box, spot clean the bathroom and wash up items I left to soak overnight (stuck dishes). Then I get a snack and the kids get ready for school. By the time they're learning things the wash can go in the dryer. An hour or so later I've cleaned wherever big project I am cleaning and can fold my laundry. And I'm usually done with most things until supper messes. I'll have a nice hearty breakfast and a shower and put on my daywear and do low key things like sewing or Bible study.

One habit that everyone could adopt is to DRINK MORE WATER. First thing in the morning, drink a glass of water. Last thing before bed, drink a glass of water. Before you leave or start work, drink a glass of water. Anytime you take a break, drink a glass of water. That adds four more glasses than you wouldn’t already have. It’s beneficial for brain health, joint health, immune health....whole body health.

I am a messy cook too! But, my aunt taught me to wash mixing bowls, measuring cups, etc. as you finish with them (as you go). That way you won't have as big a mess to clean up at the end. That was 60 years ago and I still do this. It helps a lot.

If you can't do that constantly as you're going, at least run water in them. Then get some of them once the main meal is cooking. I can't get into a groove cooking and doing dishes all at once. But, I can run water in them. Eventually you may be able to work out a way to do it constantly as you go. I just take advantage of natural starts and stops and do some as I can. And the hot dishes soak while we eat.

There is a reason that I love watching your channel and being a part of the Chic Society. The habits I have cultivated that brings success are as follows: 1. Getting up early consistently for spending time alone with God 2. Meal planning 3. I have always shopped from a list made off of my meal plans, but since Covid I have started online grocery shopping, which I love! 4. Listen to audio books while cleaning, ironing, sewing, dishes, etc. 5. Read aloud to my children.( I can share with you some of my favorites, if you’d like.) 6. Clean as I go while preparing meals 7. Using a digital planner, and this year, a bullet journal as well 8. Be intentional to create life-giving memories for my children

Reading to and with your children is huge. Don't stop. When reading to them it is good to read a book that is just beyond their reading level. When my son was in high school, more than able to read on his own and had been for a long time, we still took turns in the evening, reading a chapter a piece to one another, from a classic. It is a cherished memory for me. Today, he is a writer (and You Tuber). Also having your children see you read (or listen) lets them know this is a life-long activity. If children don't observe their parents reading, why would they think it is something one does beyond their school (home or otherwise) years? Brava on all the habits!

I have started one new habit. I now use a chamois nail buffer and buffing cream on my fingernails to give them a natural shine. My nails look and feel smooth and healthy and I no longer use nail polish or polish remover. This saves me time and money. It’s a habit which can also be used by children. I suggest giving it a try for those times when you are taking a break from nail polish. Your nails will look glossy and feel smooth after only a few days. Buffing my nails takes me less than 5 minutes and has become a pleasant daily ritual. 🌸

I have been gently buffing my nails for a few weeks. I do not know if this will weaken my nails over time. I gently file the tips of my fingernails every day and I buff each nail with buffing cream very gently. I do not apply a lot of pressure to my nail bed. I have fragile, brittle nails, but they look stronger and healthier than they have in a very long time. I like that I can apply oil to my hands after buffing and washing and that the oil can cover my actual fingernails. This is a technique I’m trying for myself to try to find a way to have pretty, healthy nails without nail polish. I have not done any research on the long term risks or benefits of buffing.

By high school, they are teaching themselves independently, but if they let you, keep reading aloud through high school. Mine did not go for it, but I wish we could have.

Attachment parenting and cosleeping make it so I can’t get up early before my kiddos. I know this is just a season of life for us. However, I do notice that I get much more sleep than lots of adults I know. I am often surprised at how little sleep some people give themselves. Lovely video! Thank you.

I do not use online grocery shopping - except when life is chaotic - appointments etc - because I actually enjoy food shopping, and it is like a little vacation for me, but I am at a different stage of life than you are. I used to wake up early when I was younger too - amazing what you can get done. One habit I have is I like to sew/quilt - and make a lot of items for our household, and being able to safely leave that set up somewhere allows me to grab a half hour here or there and not have to set up every time. Again, amazing what you can do in short bursts of time.

A habit that has changed my life recently is what I call rolling planning. It has saved me so much time. I have a blank month or two out in the meal planner and whenever a meal went well and the people liked it I just write in in on about the same date one month out. As I do this I start to realize that the planning is done! It takes me moments rather than minutes to plan the week's meals. It means we have the non perishable ingredients mainly on hand etc and I use that bag of wild rice or what have you. Same thing with homeschooling. If something went especially well into the blank planner it goes. It has made weekly planning a tiny task when it used to take forever. Loved your video! You've been an inspiration for good habits. Thank you!

We have very similar habits - Walmart grocery delivery has improved my life and saved us money. I joined a great Bible study group, and I’m now at my three year anniversary of attending barre classes three days per week. I’ve been intermittent fasting for nine months, and this is one of the most seismic shifts in my life. I’m free. I have energy and health. I never have to diet again. My mind is so much more nimble and it is helping me let go of no longer needed possessions also, and clearing space in my home. Thank-you so much. So glad I found you.

I just loved this! Thanks to an earlier vid of yours, I've decided to break the bad habit of multitasking at luncheon. I used to process mail, read snippets of things, do a crossword puzzle, write lists, but I barely tasted my food and felt tired and not rested or refreshed afterwards. So, these days, I'm trying to develop the habit of paying attention to my meal and really savoring it, perhaps looking out the window and admiring the sky or the trees. That's tough for me, but I'm working on it. Thanks for another wonderfully inspiring video!

My habits have been to fit in exercise. Sometimes its going to gym, or walking on my lunch hour and on bad weather days, I walk the stairwell, I work in a tall office bldg 🙂. To-Do Lists have been essential since my high school years. Also, every Monday I pay bills, make apptmts, restock bathrooms, make and mail greeting cards. Once a week, I take a disabled family member out to dinner and shopping (takes my mind off my own problems). Before Covid, attended church every time the doors were open and taught classes or help with childrens dept (feeds my spiritual and improves my coping skills). Always put back up, hang up, put away, after I use something. Listen to videos or KZfaqs while cleaning house and working in yard, and in the car alone. Birthday and Christmas gifts are oftentimes results of my hobbies, knitting and photography. Before going to bed, kitchen is cleaned using my e-cloth, tidied up, sinks scrubbed and dried. I plan menus, use crock pot and insta pot often. Donate to thrift stores often. That's all I can think of!!

A good habit that I have is cooking from scratch. That is something I can thank my family for because it was simply the way I was raised and to this day, though the daily cooking of adulthood can feel like a burden on some days, it is still the most effortless habit of mine. I also used serious meal planning for a couple years to achieve a financial goal and it was succesfull ! One habit I'm working on, and your content helps me a lot with that, is to be more regular with my chores. I am great with big seasonal cleanings, those that take a full day, to a full week-end, but I don't allow enough time to maintain it the way I want as I pack my day with "more important" tasks. Rediscovering homemaking as a joy and a pleasant interior as a priority, rather than second thoughts, is life-changing. Thank you for that !

Jennifer, I would like to say that watching your videos has inspired me so much especially in the cleaning area. I have been cleaning my house unlike I've ever cleaned it before. It is a wonderful habit I picked up from you and I simply just add one item of deep cleaning that I didn't do before and work on that for a small amount of time each day until the room is just spotless from head to toe. I would love to listen to audiobooks while doing this but I've never been able to because my mind wanders too much and then suddenly I'm lost in the book and I keep having to rewind to find out what's going on, LOL.

Thank you for sharing, Jennifer. This was most inspiring. I put the “Atomic Habits” book on hold, and I am going to have a think about which habits you listed to put into practice. I need to improve in so many of them. I’ve improved already in several, such as keeping the bathroom tidy, and cleaning up the kitchen after every meal, keeping a small vase of flowers or snips of greens beside the sinks, it is so much nicer to live in a clean and pretty environment. I’ve been putting on audio books for our family to listen to during some meal times, and consider it “English literature class”. I hate getting up early. I hate fasting. But I will get up earlier by 1/2 hour than usual and work on being consistent. I am planning a bone broth fast this week to help me reset and bump my weight so I can drop the 20 lbs. I’ve been needing to get rid of. Thanks again, and wish me luck, I’ll need it! 😆

I have been working on building self-discipline this month, and one area I’ve needed to be more disciplined in is my sleeping habits. I set my goal at waking up before my children (again- somehow I fell out of the habit??), and I decomposed that goal into several measurable, small habits! (What you’re calling ‘atomic habits,’ it sounds like.) For me, it all begins the night before! I’ve created a lovely and relaxing (screen free!) bedtime routine that includes leisurely caring for my hygiene/skin, exercising, journaling, and reading before bed. (I just finished ‘An Old Fashioned Girl’ by L. Alcott again because it’s just so insightful and wholesome. This time, I wrote down quotes that were ‘life changing’ for me, inspired by your ‘life changing secrets from [book]’ series.) But it’s not just about me! Before my night time routine ever begins, I have started establishing a similar bedtime routine with my children- their hygiene, reading wholesome literature and poems before bed, and lots of cuddles, singing Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4-6), etc. It’s been really wonderful!!

Hi, Jennifer, lovely to watch your channel! Thank you for the good ideas an atomic habits. One of them surprised me, though. I used to read to my three children every single night of their childhood (read all the books you mentioned, and many more), but never thought it was anything extraordinary. My mother would read to me every night of my childhood, and now my eldest daughter reads to her two-year-old son in just the same way. I thought it's just a normal way of bringing up children. But if it is a rare habit these days, I'm so glad you draw people's attention to it and encourage them to start this habit. Wishing you the very best and looking forward to your next videos.

I'd say some of the best habits I have developed are "shelf-cooking" (basing meals off of what I have and need to use up so I rarely waste anything), always having a book I'm working on reading (usually one fiction and one non-fiction), and like you, using cleaning/chore time to watch a video like this or listen to a book or podcast. A habit I would like to work on would be waking up early. I would have so much more time to read and also to write, which I believe I have a call on my life to do in some capacity. Thanks for being a mentor to me and many others through this outlet! God bless you ❤️ P.S. I would love to know how you go about creating new habits, meaning do you track your habit, commit to a certain time period, focus on adding just one habit at a time, etc. I probably just need to read the book! :) But if you have any wisdom to share on that in a future video, I would welcome that.

Jennifer, you are precious! Thank you for sharing these atomic habits. I will also read the book… Probably on Audible, but still read the book. You inspire me. Thank you for this KZfaq video.

I share most of the good habits you shared! I am interested in reading this book and using it to further my success. I love Reading living literature to my children. It’s such an amazing way to bond with them and share a very special time with them. I love it. My father did this with me and I have such special memories of this. My nutrition journey and exercise has also been similar-small changes creating good habits. I’d love to pick other areas of my life to also improve upon.

So sorry I hit the wrong button- Regarding being a messy meal planner - I have a few tips that may be helpful... 1. Never set the dirty utensils, bowls, pots/pans etc in the sink... either rinse and place in dishwasher or hand wash them in between steps and leave them to air dry- for oven safe items set the oven to 200* (especially if your recipe will requires baking), they will dry quickly this way and be ready to use again - this will limit the amount of dishes being potentially being dirtied. 2. Delegate the task of ‘assistants’ to children who are old enough . 3. For recipes that require ‘pre-steps’ (browning meet, mincing garlic/onions etc. as often as possible prepare enough of these ingredients for at least 2 more meals at one time, label and store so they are quickly assessable, making meal prep quicker. 4. Like one day to do big cleaning jobs... scheduling an entire afternoon to prepare the meals for the week that can be pre-prepared- ultimately saves time and resources- all hands on deck for the children and hubby if he’s available is a great way to teach new skills, bond, and create memories and traditions... not to mention - I learned as a child, ‘many hands make light work’ ~ ‘when you love what you do, it’s not work’. These mottos if you will, passed down to me and from me to my children. It always tickles my funny bone to hear my daughters share these mottos with their peers, friend and recently our newlywed daughter was encouraging her husband with these mottos - who would have thought:) Hope these help!!

I love this video and I do so many of the same things! The living books made such a huge impact in our homeschool (we do this for history- the Beautiful Feet curriculum) that I actually began writing a literature-based Oklahoma History for homeschoolers last summer 😃 I am almost done with it and will release it in May!! I can’t wait for the families to read these amazing books about people who lived here- there’s also a field trip guide, copy work packet, handicrafts, recipes and an art project that coincides with each book- I am so excited! I have seen so much momentum by working daily on the curriculum too

So far, you have described the way we lived when my now grown-and-gone four children were little homeschoolers. I dearly loved Charlotte Mason and reading living books to them every single night!
