TINY HABITS

 BOOK REVIEW

BOOK TITLE : TINY HABITS 

AUTHOR : BJ FOGG

Here are 10 key lessons from "Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything" 




1. Focus on Behavior, Not Outcomes: The book emphasizes changing behavior rather than focusing solely on achieving specific outcomes. By establishing tiny habits, you build sustainable routines that lead to long-term change.

2. Make it Tiny: Start with incredibly small, achievable actions. These "tiny habits" are easier to integrate into your routine and build confidence in your ability to make changes.

3. Leverage the Power of Feeling: Connect your tiny habits with positive emotions to increase motivation and make them more likely to stick. Celebrate even small successes and focus on the good feelings associated with completing the habit.

4. Anchor to Existing Routines: Associate your tiny habits with existing routines you already perform regularly. This "habit stacking" makes it easier to remember and integrate new behaviors into your daily life.

5. Make it Easy: Design your tiny habits to be effortless and require minimal willpower. Reduce any potential barriers that might hinder your ability to complete the action.

6. Celebrate Every Win: Acknowledge and celebrate every time you complete your tiny habit, no matter how small. This positive reinforcement strengthens the behavior and increases the likelihood of repetition.

7. Don't Be Afraid to Experiment: Find what works best for you! Experiment with different tiny habits, routines, and anchors to discover what motivates you and makes the behavior sustainable.

8. Focus on Progress, Not Perfection: Remember, change takes time and effort. Celebrate your progress, even if it's slow, and avoid getting discouraged by setbacks.

9. Build Momentum: As you successfully complete your tiny habits, you'll build momentum and confidence, making it easier to add new habits and continue making positive changes.

10. Tiny Habits Can Lead to Big Change: While seemingly insignificant individually, tiny habits, when practiced consistently over time, can lead to significant and lasting changes in your life.
