Small Steps or Massive Action? The Best Way to Make A Change

Jul 23, 2015

Have conventional habit change methods been wrong this whole time? A few weeks ago I see person after person making as they try to start a new habit. They either go all in, dive head first into massive change, and burn out just as reality starts to set in. Or they take the small steps approach. They follow a slow, arduous process of tiny steps. With no major breakthroughs or results, the motivation simply disappears. My approach is different. I think you can do both. Instead of choosing massive action or small steps, you can bridge the gap between the two, and create a method that provides immediate results, and the structure to make it stick. In today's episode we discuss that philosophy, how it's the only process that has worked for me, and the steps you should take for lasting habit change.
