دانلود کتاب Mini Habits: Smaller Habits, Bigger Results – عادات مینی: عادت های کوچکتر ، نتایج بزرگتر

When I decided to start exercising consistently 10 years ago, this is what actually happened:

• I tried ‘getting motivated.’ It worked sometimes.
• I tried setting audacious big goals. I almost always failed them.
• I tried to make changes last. They didn’t.

Like most people who try to change and fail, I assumed that I was the problem.

Then one afternoon–after another failed attempt to get motivated to exercise–I (accidentally) started my first mini habit. I initially committed to do one push-up, and it turned into a full workout. I was shocked. This ‘stupid idea’ wasn’t supposed to work. I was shocked again when my success with this strategy continued for months (and to this day). I had to consider that maybe I wasn’t the problem in those 10 years of mediocre results. Maybe it was my prior strategies that were ineffective, despite being oft-repeated as ‘the way to change’ in countless books and blogs.

I was right.

As I sought understanding, I found a plethora of scientific studies that had answers, with nobody to interpret them correctly. Based on the science–which you’ll find peppered throughout Mini Habits–we’ve been doing it all wrong.

You can succeed without the guilt, intimidation, and repeated failure associated with such strategies as ‘getting motivated,’ New Year’s Resolutions, or even ‘just doing it.’ In fact, you need to stop using those strategies if they aren’t giving you great results. They don’t work because they all require you to fight against your subconscious brain (a fight not easily won). It’s only when you start playing by your brain’s rules and taking your human limitations seriously–as mini habits show you how to do–that you can achieve lasting change.

Aim For The First Step
They say when you aim for the moon, you’ll land among the stars. Well, that doesn’t make sense, as the moon is closer than the stars. I digress. The message is that you should aim very high and even if you fall short, you’ll still get somewhere. I’ve found the opposite to be true in regards to productivity and healthy behaviors. When you aim for the moon, you’ll won’t shoot because it’s too far away. But when you aim for the step in front of you, you might just keep going and reach the moon.

I’ve used the Mini Habits strategy to get into the best shape of my life, read 10x more books, and write 4x as many words. It started from requiring one push-up from myself every day. How ridiculous is that? Not so ridiculous when you consider the science of the brain, habits, and willpower. The Mini Habits system works because it’s how our brains are designed to change.

I relished the opportunity to share this life-changing strategy with the world. I loved writing Mini Habits. You’ll see my passion in the content as well as the overall quality and presentation of the book.

Note: This book isn’t for eliminating bad habits (though some principles could be useful for breaking habits). Mini Habits is a strategy to create permanent healthy habits. Some categories include: exercise, writing, reading, thinking positively, meditating, drinking water, eating healthy foods, etc.

Book sample note: The ‘look inside’ Amazon preview lacks the cleanly spaced formatting of the actual Mini Habits book.

تغییر ماندگار برای سواحل اولیه ، فرسودگی ، بی تحرک و هر کس دیگری نیز با استفاده از 10 سال پیش ، این همان چیزی است که در واقع اتفاق افتاده است: گاهی کار می کرد.

من سعی کردم اهداف بزرگ جسورانه را تعیین کنم. من تقریباً همیشه آنها را شکست دادم.

من سعی کردم آخرین تغییرات را ایجاد کنم. آنها این کار را نکردند. > مشکل بود
