Episode 532: Building Focus and Follow Through With the Habits & Hustle Book Club

Endless scrolling doesn’t sharpen your thinking. You probably can’t remember 95% of what you just consumed, yet it still takes your time, attention, and even your money. In this solo episode of Habits & Hustle, I share why I created The Habits & Hustle Book Club and what pushed me to build something that encourages completion instead of constant consumption. We break down how a clear deadline builds accountability, why finishing a book strengthens follow-through in other areas of your life, and how using those spare 10 to 20 minutes to read instead of scroll can improve your focus over time. Tune in to learn how the book club works, what kinds of books we’re reading, and why finishing what you start changes more than just your reading list.
