Tiny Habits Intro - Troubleshooting New Habits So They Stick

Creator: @7motivation

Troubleshoot your new tiny habits.

*Please note: this is from my experience and reading only,

and it's not meant to represent pure Tiny Habits material.

-------------- 

Is your new habit too hard? 

Make your habit even tinier (do less).

Or just do the tiniest first-step.

--------------

Make it simpler.
Eliminate complexity.
Decide to keep it simple.

-------------- 

Eliminate the need for decision-making or thinking.
Decide in-advance "what to always do"...
then... no decisions ever required for that habit.
Then you can... "Just Do It"! Yay!

-------------- 

Make your typical distractions harder than doing your new habit.
Move your game-box or televison to another room so it's harder to get to.

Move things you need for your new habit very near by so it they are within arms reach.

-------------- 

Make your new habit to easier to fit in your life.
Pick a better place or time for them.

-------------- 

Make it more pleasant somehow.
Like add music.

--------------  

Get ideas from searching the web or YouTube.

-------------- 

Get or buy something that will make it easier...
Like buy an electric toothbrush!
It makes brushing easy and more fool-proof.
Some even have a built-in timer so you brush each quadrant for 30 seconds.

-------------- 

Prepare in-advance.
In other words, make the task partially-done in-advance.
Then you just need to complete it when the time comes.

-------------- 

Is your new habit too hard to remember how-to-do or when-to-do? 

Attach it to a more specific or more reliable time/place or situation.

-------------- 

Try rehearsing it over and over the exact same way until it feels easy.

-------------- 

Use a reminder of some sort if needed.

-------------- 

Make it unavoidable - make it stick out so it's very noticeable.

-------------- 

Put your reminder in the movement path of your normal routines so you can't miss it.

-------------- 

Create a "placeholder" for it.
Then you will notice it is empty and ..
You'll want to fill the placeholder...
by doing your new habit.

-------------- 

Do you find that you do not really want to do your new habit?

  • Figure out all the big reasons why.
  • Figure out your attitude, mindset, mental habits, and self-talk about the habit.
  • Then solve the issues appropriately.

-------------- 

If you have access to the Tiny Habits book, always use the flow charts in the appendix section right away!!!

  • The flow charts in the appendix visually explain the entire Tiny Habits methodology
  • Flow charts are provided for each generic situation you might be in:
    - Making a new habit

    - Replacing an unwanted habit with a new habit
    And so on.
