I was asked to be the opening keynote speaker at a conference in Budapest, Hungary. The talk was titled “The Surprising Power of Small Habits.” It is about why small habits can make a big difference in life and work, and what you can do to build habits that last. This is one of my most popular keynote speech topics.
Keynote Speaker on Habits and Continuous Improvement
As a keynote speaker, my goal is to share brilliant and interesting ideas in the most engaging way possible. Let me tell you a little bit more about me and my approach to keynote speaking.
- I spend most of my time writing about self-improvement tips based on proven scientific research. In my speeches, I share the best strategies I have found for building good habits, breaking bad ones, and improving performance.
- I love storytelling and I've written hundreds of interesting articles about people who have transformed their habits and maximized their potential. My keynote speeches are filled with the same engaging storytelling as my writing.
- My top skill as a keynote speaker is taking complex topics and making them simple and practical. In each talk, I'll explain the science of habit change, human behavior, and high performance in a way that audiences can easily understand and actually use.
- My ideas have been tested by a wide range of people. Over 8 million people read my articles each year and more than 400,000 people subscribe to my weekly email newsletter. Thousands of people follow me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
- I teach ideas that I have tried myself. I am continually working on my productivity habits as a writer, on my exercise habits as a weightlifter, and on my creativity habits as a travel photographer in over 25 countries.

“Mastermind Talks is an invite-only event for high-level executives, CEOs, and startup founders. It’s a demanding and intelligent audience. I was lucky enough to have James lead a roundtable session at our event, and to date it has not only been our most attended roundtable, but the highest rated by our audience as well.
I am blessed to be in the position where I have access to a deep pool of some of the most well-known thought leaders of our time. When it comes to habits, James is the first expert that comes to mind. I would have James back at our event in a heartbeat. I can’t recommend working with him enough.”
