About this listen
Would you like a simple step-by-step plan for making each day better than the last without making earth-shattering changes to your life?
Certified schoolteacher Nicole Rice has proven to have helped countless teenagers, who walk in the classroom door each fall with a new set of personalities and turn into successful, happy grown-ups. Nicole shows that the simpler things are made, the more likely we are to get them done and stick with them like never before. Like arriving 10 minutes early, smiling at someone, making lists, and remembering one thing a person tells you to recall next time.
Everybody has goals. Even teachers were asking to enroll in Mrs. Rice’s work study class, and now you can learn too.
These are all doable small habits anyone can do to fill the days with positive experiences and skyrocket into successful situations for home and work. If there never seems to be enough hours in the day, take this guidance to heart. Break down any goal into tiny daily habits. Save time and energy to make things happen, including those big things.
There are lists of simple habits and actionable steps to choose from, plus, teen stories and quotes that can enlighten you to know you can do this too, and her one-page habit, action, and network log sheets she uses with teenagers to track their progress and make them accountable to themselves for what they set out to do.
Teenagers say the darnedest things. Here are some after learning how to do the seven simple habits:
Habit 1: Get an Early Start, and Stop Feeling Rushed Every Day
"I used to get marked tardy a couple of times a week, well maybe more since the school called home, but I haven’t been late for weeks since I said 'yes' to helping my first period teacher set up for class 10 minutes early every day for one month.” (Kenneth, 17)
Habit 2: Take Action Every Day
"I put off making my LinkedIn profile because I didn’t think I had anything worth listing until my college success teacher made it our final. It only took me 45 minutes, and I had a lot. That was stupid to stress over.” (Jackson, 18)
Habit 3: Listen to People and Network Every Day
"I never knew how many cute boys existed until I arrived in high school and learned how to network." (Sarah, 17)
Habit 4: Tidy Up Your Daily Spots Every Day
"I'm done getting mad waiting for adults to get done talking. I plan now and download stuff to my phone that I have to get done or like watching while I wait." (Casey, 16)
Habit 5: Know What is Going on in the World Every Day
"Most of the time, I take it for granted that my mom will do everything for me to get me to school and practice and friends' houses, but now she works away from home. That is when I found out the school has a late bus. Why did I not know that? I could have saved my mom a lot of trouble." (Oscar, 15)
Habit 6: Get Your Move On and Off Every Day
“My health class showed me how many teaspoons of sugar are in one soda can. I no longer have a soda every day, but I do when I go out to eat.” (Mandy, 16)
Habit 7: Smile and Commemorate Your Good Doings Every Day
"In 11th grade, I got an award on Moving Up Day for "Most Improved in Science" in front of all my classmates and other teachers. I wanted to drop all year, but that part felt really cool after all."

When New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff got curious about tapping into his full potential, he launched a research study with Dr. Mike Peasley. They asked more than three thousand people if they felt they were living up to their full potential. Fifty percent of people reported that 50 percent of their full potential is untapped. That means half of us are walking around with half-lives. No wonder Twitter is so grumpy.

Acuff knows the reason why many writers' novels go unfinished - it's the same reason why gyms are filled in the first week of January and empty by the end of the month and why people stop learning a new language once they get past the easy parts. It's not just that people lose momentum or get distracted. People give up on projects when they fail to live up to their own high expectations and decide that if they can't do something perfectly, they won't do it at all. If you're going to finish, you have to kill perfectionism.

Communication is a fundamental part of all human relationships. It is the basis for the transfer of information and ideas. Unfortunately, poor communication can cripple bonds in both your personal and professional life. The biggest mistake people make is when the sender or the receiver properly understand the information exchanged between them. It is a source of unwanted conflict in all facets of life.
