Success is the sum of...
“… small efforts, repeated day in and day out.” ~ Robert Collier. In my book, "Amaging™ Growing Old On Purpose," Chapter 14 is dedicated to this truth. What small efforts are you repeating to help you move forward? To be more successful with your goals? I challenge you to take 10-15 minutes out of your day today and think about this. Then ask yourself – What new habits are you working on? Have you been consistently practicing? Is there a habit you started, stopped and need to re-start? Have you given up, thinking you are too old to start a new habit? These are not easy questions to answer. Yet, practice makes better! In Chapter 6 I share many ideas for practicing new habits. Open up your copy to Chapter 6 and re-read this chapter to remind yourself. You got this! Then, post a comment or send me a message. Please let me know how it goes for you! #RobertCollier #Amaging™GrowingOldOnPurpose #AgingWell #HealthyAging #AtomicHabits
Book Excerpt
Amaging(TM) Growing Old On Purpose
Start Small and Gain Momentum
Joe Piscatella, mentioned earlier in this book, shared his personal struggle to adopt heart-healthy habits. He said, at first he thought he had to do everything to the extreme right away—run an entire marathon, become a vegetarian, meditate every day—all within two weeks. He set unrealistic goals, and as you can imagine, he wasn’t successful.
He wrote, “Then, I realized that a different strategy might be more effective: small actions, repeated daily.” He started eating more vegetables at dinnertime. He worked on this until it was a daily dinner habit. Then he worked on eating more fish, and later he tackled portion control. He started with something small and built little successes upon little successes. These little successes became the foundation for his new and healthier life (Piscatella, 2010).
