What is a Habit?

I am reading an e-book Mini Habits by Stephen Guise. The author proposes doing habits that are so small as to be ridiculously easy and require little to no emotional push to do them. Examples given are doing one push-up or two pages of a book per day.

The idea is once you have broken the start line the feeling of accomplishment can propel you to do more than the minimum action you set out. Sure, there will also be times when you only do the mini habit you set out.

Over time the joy of starting will overcome the resistance and increase that feeling of satisfaction of being in control of your life. Soon you will be inserting more good habits into all areas of your life.

So, what new habits have you been trying to implement that might benefit from this approach?

What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.
