In my mind, I was thinking that I always read the news at home on my computer in the evening, but this week I found myself reading the news all over the place and at different times every day. Maybe it was just a hectic week. I\u2019ll stick with the music book tiny habit next week to try to find out.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTiny habits give you a sense of control.

I would recommend Michelle and this process of self-discovery to anyone who is seeking to improve. \u201d\u2014 Anonymous<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI got hooked on a writing habit. My coach did a great job leading me through a tiny habit of gratitude journaling at night. Then I built on that to add my real goal which was regular journaling every morning.\u201d\u200a\u2014\u200aDaren<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI was coached in Tiny habits. I got up to 17 new tiny habits of which I\u2019m still doing the majority. It has changed my morning routine and kept me looking for more anchors during the day to add on some additional tiny habits. I guess also thanks to Tiny Habits I started running again (Yes, my body is my temple), will start playing basketball again (on a soft level, hey I\u2019m no longer that crazy youngster), and seeing other positive changes. Pushups I can easily do 20 now (and more), when I stop for a red light I start thinking about what makes me happy, I\u2019m writing a lot more, and so on and so on.\u201d\u200a\u2014\u200aBart<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTint habits have been very helpful and motivating, his insight on using anchors for habit change was particularly helpful. \u201d\u200a\u2014\u200aAnonymous<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
