In the book Atomic Habits by James Clear, there’s a quote that helps differentiate between “goals” and “systems” (habits). James says this:
Goals are good for setting a direction, but systems are best for making progress.

In other words, it’s great to set goals for your Bible memory.
It’s even more important, though, to develop the daily habits that will provide progress toward those goals.
