When we strive for self-improvement, a common mistake is to shoot too high. We
make promises to be healthier, more mindful, more patient. But such lofty goals
often go unmet. They’re just too vague, too hard to track. (There’s a reason why
80 percent of New Year’s Resolutions are cast aside by February.) Even when a
goal is more concrete (“I want to run a half marathon”; “I want to yell less”)
it’s difficult to stay the course, especially when you have kids, because time
is tight, progress requires consistency.
A different approach? Start smaller — much smaller — and strive to develop micro
habits, which are easy-to-implement daily actions that require only a few
minutes of your time (if that). It may seem strange to do something for 30
seconds or two minutes. That’s an oddly achievable goal, isn’t it? But that’s
the point of micro habits. And once you start, progress comes quickly.
