  • Mini book review – Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg

    I’ll say that this is a must-read for anyone who wants to either develop a habit or get rid of a bad one. I’ll want to credit this book for helping me build better habits, whether it be reading or solving coding problems. The book gives frameworks you can use to create long-lasting habits, like giving yourself a treat for completing a habit or not being hard on yourself if you didn’t practice your guitar the day you were supposed to. It drives home the point that you can start with tiny habits and then scale up. Don’t aim to run a mile daily, aim to just walk for 5 minutes, or something tiny of the original goal.

    If you take away one thing from the book then it will be this point, you should not punish yourself for not achieving your goals towards your habit, but the act of trying to pursue that habit itself every day should be the cause of celebration.
