Tiny Habits
Author: BJ Fogg, PhD
Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg is a groundbreaking book that offers a practical approach to habit formation, focusing on making small, manageable changes that lead to lasting personal transformation. Instead of overwhelming yourself with big, daunting goals, Fogg’s method encourages you to start with tiny, easy actions that gradually build into powerful habits.
Fogg, a behavioral scientist, presents his scientifically-backed approach that has helped thousands of people worldwide. His method centers on the idea that small behaviors can be just as effective as larger ones, and in many cases, starting small leads to better, more sustainable results. The book provides actionable steps and real-world examples to help readers implement these tiny habits into their own lives.
