In Tiny Habits, Dr. BJ Fogg tells us:
“I call these habits Pearl Habits because they use prompts that start out as irritants then turn into something beautiful.”
Recall our tiny habit recipe AFTER I… I WILL… TO CELEBRATE, I WILL…
AFTER I feel irritated, I WILL say to myself thank you for the opportunity to practice my philosophy; TO CELEBRATE, I WILL give myself an internal high five.
AFTER I feel irritated, I WILL name it to tame it; TO CELEBRATE, I WILL say that’s like me!
AFTER I feel irritated, I WILL breathe in for four and out for six; TO CELEBRATE, I WILL say that’s like me!
Can you think of any irritations you can turn into pearls using a Tiny Habit recipe?
