Tiny Habits

I guess the name is self-explanatory, the main idea behind is to take the habit that you want to build and decrease its complexity by 10. For example, imagine you want to do 100 pushups each day. In the beginning, you may be able to do it because you have the motivation, but the problem is that this level of motivation will not last forever.

Once you break the resistance and accept the habit, you can increase the level of complexity.

My personal experience

Before the year 2020, I have never finished a book in my life, I even did not think about it. At the beginning of 2020, I set a goal that at the end of this year I will finish 10 books! And I implemented the Tiny Habits technique. My goal was to read only 2 pages each day…
