Get Ready to Win the Day Hey friend! If you've picked up this book, chances are you may have read or at least heard of the book that inspired it-- Win the Day: 7 Daily Habits to Help You Stress Less Accomplish More. In that book, I introduce readers to the power of living in day-tight compartments and explain the habits you can form for winning today, every day. But most habits require practice, and that is exactly where this journal comes in. As you write and reflect your way through the pages that follow, you will learn practical tips for reframing your past, stewarding your present, and facing your future with confidence. Before you dive in, here are some suggestions on how to achieve the best results. First, take it one habit at a time. If you try to make too many changes at once, your chances of success go way down. It's important not to take on too much too quickly.

Instead, pick a habit and go to work on it. Rome wasn't built in a day, right? It'll take consistent effort over weeks and months and years to win the day. I hope this book comes to feel like an old friend that you pick up off the shelf and turn to often. Second, I recommend going through this book with a friend, a team, or a small group. You'll certainly benefit if you tackle it all by yourself, but there is synergy when you set goals within a community of accountability. It gives you a built-in sounding board to bounce ideas off of while encouraging each other to keep at it. Lastly, the most important step to remember is to approach every habit with a day-tight compartment mindset. If you start to feel overwhelmed, just ask yourself, Can you do it for a day?
