3 Ways to Build Habits, 3 Ways to Accomplish More.
Build any habit that you’ve been wanting to add to your life by using these 3 tricks!
1. FOCUS: Turn off or remove all distractions around you to maintain focus and to successfully tune your mind to the work you need to finish. You will hone your ability to focus on the new habit.
2. Habit STACKING: To accustom your mind and body to a new habit, attach a preexisting habit to a new one. For example, right after you brush your teeth, do the push-ups you’ve always wanted to do.
3. PRE-COMMITMENT: Effectuate your plan by ensuring you will follow through with what you intend to do for the day. If you want to finish drafting a document by 5 pm, commit to completing it before starting. You can also tell someone about your plans so you are held accountable for your goal!
Here are three small ways to accomplish more right now.
1. Take the SMALLEST possible action: the task you have in mind may be daunting, but taking the tiniest step is still progress! Even prepping a plan counts as advancement to your aim.
2. Get immediate FEEDBACK: You might be scared to start because you’re worried that you won’t do well or have high standards. Fear not. Simply ask someone you feel comfortable with for feedback! You’ll feel more ready to start.
3. Start ANYWHERE: You might not know what to do or where to start because your work seems confusing or complex. You can start by cleaning the area around you or going to a quieter place to begin your work. YOU GOT THIS!
