keep it embarrassingly tiny

if you try to fix too many things at once, you’ll burn out when you’re tired and drained, and you won’t be able to keep up. instead, pick one thing you really want to improve and commit to it every day for a couple of months.

keep it embarrassingly small like a 1‑minute workout, 1‑minute reading session, 1‑minute meditation, or 1‑minute study. once you feel confident that you’ve built that routine, start adding the next habit on top.

it’s easy to get frustrated when change doesn’t show up quickly. be patient. this is a marathon, not a sprint.

at least that’s how i stay motivated, and maybe it’ll work for you too.
