The value of doing a little
I loved "Atomic Habits" but the most <i>useful</i> framework I found for "doing a little" is from the "Elastic Habits" book <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/48905847" rel="nofollow">https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/48905847</a><p>Basic Idea --<p>1. Have 3 options as well as 3 levels for each habit/task/project<p>2. The lowest (Mini) level should be something you can do on practically any day, no matter how bad things are.<p>3. Do the level you are comfortable with on any given day<p>Example (For a health habit)<p>Mini level: 1 pushup OR 10 steps walking OR One glass of water<p>Second level (forgot what he called it) : 5 pushups OR 500 steps walking OR 3 glasses of water<p>Pro level : 20 pushups OR 2000 steps OR 8 glasses of water.<p>Set the numbers that seem like no-brainers to you. This tends to work <i>extremely</i> well in my experience and accounts for varying environmental, psychological and physiological conditions.<p>The book has a points system etc which I did not find useful but is otherwise a very good complement to "Atomic Habits"
