A short advice video by Donald Burns on how to reinvent yourself. Burns argues reinvention begins with honest self-awareness—identifying habits, routines, and mindsets that hold you back—and follows with making a concrete plan to change: adopt new habits, drop unhelpful patterns, and learn necessary skills.

What habits, routines, what mindsets are keeping me stuck? What do I need to let go of in order to move forward? Now, once you've identified what's holding you back, you need to make a plan. What do you need to change? What new habits do you need to develop? What skills do you need to learn?
