Instead of waiting for motivation to begin with significant demands—like 45 minutes of running immediately—start with modest goals such as running for just one minute. This approach helps create the necessary space for the habit to grow its roots, making transitions to more extended periods more intuitive over time.This method applies to any habit: whether it's studying, meditating, or managing daily emails, beginning with tiny increments encourages consistency and sustainability.
