      I can never forget this quote! It brings in mind the concept of Identity based habit which is the rewarding type of habit.
      Focus of those little actions, be consistent with them, over time it's gonna culminate in a particular identity of you; basically you're now the kind of person that pulls off success by default.

    Start with an incredibly small habit. Make it so easy you can't say no.
    Increase your habit in very small ways.
    As you build up, break habits into chunks.
    When you slip, get back on track quickly.
    Be patient.

I think your point is super valid and it’s something I wonder as well based on my experience. I’m curious what you think. What do you make of that?

    1 - *make it obvious.* When, how and where do you do the habit? What PRECISELY should you do? Make the ambiguity go away and as clear as possible. The system you set up is more important than your goals. If you want to become fit (goal), you have to work out frequently (the system).
    2 - *make it attractive.* Clean your desk, get a cup of tea and listen to music you enjoy with a work you don't enjoy so much. Bundle the boring stuff with the fun stuff. So " if i do X, i get to do Y. Not anytime else ". So doing the fun stuff at the end of the day, after earning them by being productive during the day, you can implement it.
    3 - *make it easy.* So by putting your workout clothes in a place you can see, e.g. next to the door, you remind yourself to do that habit and they are within reach so it's not difficult to get going right away when you have an urge to do so. And start with baby steps. Don't start with 5 hours a day. Start with 5 minutes a day and work your way up. You should be far more concerned with the trajectory you're headed, not where you are now and how fast you are moving.
    4 - *make it satisfying.* Similar to the bundling thing that was kind of a long term thing, make something so that you get satisfaction in the very short term. ( to battle the quick dopamine hit of social media for example. ) Especially in the beginning. E.g. right after you finish a 1km run, maybe listen to your favorite song or read a page of a fiction book you like so you get some reading time in too and it's double-ly good. Be careful though not to build bad habits through this. So if you were to reward yourself with junk food, that'd be counterproductive in the long run. By doing this overall, you'll get through the first steps of the compounding effect where it doesn't show itself yet and you don't know you are actually progressing.
    *But,* if you fail to do the habit you are trying to build, don't beat yourself up about it and try to cast a vote in the right direction next time so the majority of votes are on the side that you want to win. If you keep your trajectory at the direction you want to and not let it sway in another direction, that's a win in and of itself.

    I made it a goal to have at least half of my plate to be non-starchy vegetables at every meal. I keep a lot of canned and frozen vegetables in the house but I also pick up fresh ones that I know that I like. Having a rule that’s clearly defined with flexibility has helped a lot and it’s now automatic to eat a lot of vegetables every day! :-)
