How To Build Small Habits
Small Habits include 3 important aspects, on the research and practice of BJ Fogg:
● No more judging yourself.
● Take whatever habit you want to achieve and break it down into tiny behaviors .
● Embrace mistakes as discoveries. Learn from your mistakes and move forward.
Self-criticism will show up as part of the process. It’s a habit that doesn’t work to make us change for the better.
A new connection will develop between small habits and feeling good, instead of self-criticism and feeling bad.

Wiring in Any Habit You Want
The process to wire any habit you want includes these three steps:
1. Anchor moment
Choose an anchor moment that reminds you to do the new tiny behavior.
2. New Tiny Behavior
Practice the tiny behavior after the anchor moment.
3. Instant Celebration
Celebrate after you finish the new tiny behavior.
Focusing on Celebrations
According to BJ Fogg, celebration is the most important skill to create a habit.
● Celebrate immediately after you practice the tiny behavior. Also, it has to feel real.
● No need for an over-the-top celebration. Something that feels authentic to you will do.
The reason for a celebration is to wire in your new habit quickly.
Overall, you may surprise yourself by celebrating any little win in your daily life because the brain orbits to feeling good.
When this happens you have created the habit of celebration in your life and contribute to your well-being.
