Published on 03 Nov 2017. Step 1. Make Your Habit Tiny These are the smallest behaviors that matter. A tiny habit has to be: A behavior you do at least once a day. Takes you less than 30 seconds to do. Requires little effort. Is relevant to the full behavior. If you don’t make your behavior tiny, to begin with, you will almost certainly fail to create a new daily habit. For example, if you start out running one hour each day, you won’t create a habit of exercise. But if you commit to putting on your running shoes, you are, as Leo Babauta would comment, “making it so easy, you can’t say no”. [4] Later – perhaps months later – you can expand on your habit. But when you do, the larger behaviour will be easier. Why? Because the more you do something, the easier it becomes. Consider all of your existing habits. They are all easy to do because you’ve practiced them for thousands of hours. Soon, your new habit will be no different. Step 2. Do Your Tiny Habit Immediately after an Existing Behaviour

Then what about the labels we want? Can we not become those? I have a message about this from...Zig Ziglar. He tells what is actually a fairly disheartening story of testimonies of how negative labels dramatically affected people’s live, of course, primarily for the worse. As you know, he doesn’t often spend time communicating anything negative. But to drive home his point, he did in this clip. But as always, he uses it to empower us. From the clip I posted this message to the Ziglar audience:QUESTION: 1. What negative label (from others or yourself) do you strive to reject? 2. What positive label do you strive to be?I asked M
