I’m a big fan of micro habits.

A micro-habit is a small, simple action that doesn’t require much motivation, but will help you achieve just about anything in life.

Few repeated actions, done everyday, so discreet that they could easily go unnoticed.

That’s how long-term habits are formed.

That’s how you change behaviour.

Not radical pursuit of good habits.

Pick the easiest change, improve it each day by 1% and don’t stop until it’s routine. That’s how change happens. ​

To move in the direction of your priorities, take consistent action, no matter how small, move forward even you are taking a single step at a time, take new action, even if you if it’s for a few minutes.
