Ritual

    We are limited by where our habits lead us. This is why mastering the decisive moments throughout your day is so important. Each day is made up of many moments, but it is really a few habitual choices that determine the path you take. These little choices stack up, each one setting the trajectory (route) for how you spend the next chunk (pile) of time.

Two-minute Rule

A new habit should not feel like a challenge. The actions that follow can be challenging, but the first two minutes should be easy. What you want is a "gateway habit" that naturally leads you down a more productive path...Your goal might be to run a marathon, but your gateway habit is to put on your running shoes.
