I think often when we have a big goal we are not particularly patient and we want to reach it right now. We can get things that we want so easily but trust me doing small boring things gets the job done much more sustainably and much more reliably. It doesn't leave us completely devoid of the dopamine attached to our old habits they prevent us from having that all or nothing thinking. They're easier to implement into our lives they cause less disruption than bigger goals like running marathons in five days.
