Build a habit you keep
New routines tend to last when they start small and grow gradually. These ideas help a new habit stick.
Start smaller than you think
A routine that feels easy is more likely to last than one that feels like a stretch. You can always add more once it is part of your week.
Change one thing at a time
Add one small change, keep it for a week or two, and only then consider the next. Changing many things at once makes it hard to tell what is working.
Review each week
Once a week, ask what you enjoyed and what was hard to fit in. Keep what worked and adjust one thing that did not.
An everyday example
Lee wants to be more active. Instead of a new five-day plan, Lee starts with two short walks a week, keeps them for two weeks, then adds a third.
