What is one daily habit you would recommend to someone that has significantly improved your life?

DO LESS THAN YOU THINK YOU CAN DO.

This psychology must be considered, before making any habit.

We always make new year resolution with great optimism. But we hardly achieve them.

We put our self under so much pressure to do it every day that even if we skip a single day, we get discouraged and stop doing the activity. we start doing it again; and due to the same reason we are unable to stick to the schedule and stop doing it. These multiple discouragements make us feel less confident and make us believe that we can’t do this.

But, In the initial stage of habit formation, building momentum should be more important than the result.

For example:

Instead of 5 days/week, do gym 3 days/week..

Instead of 1 hour workout, do 30 minutes workout.

Once, you build the momentum, showing up in the gym will normal for you. Then you can gradually increase the intensity of your workout. Same principle applies to other habit formation.
