They only said if you want that kind of result change your actions but if you want permanent result change your habits.
Your habits are that core thing that change your life eternally. Cheers. This was my bad habit fixed by the one at Canton that can make stagnate your life and not allow you to achieve what you want to achieve.
If you want permanent results, change your habits. If you want external results, change your identity to the way people see you, the way you carry yourself, the knowledge you place in you, the places you find yourself, the places, the things you want to do, the books you want to read, the people you want to associate with.
All those things are part of the habits that keeps you in one place. Change your habits and do what is right and what can give you the required results at any time. It doesn't matter how small it is, but just change your habits.
