💡 Overall ability is determined by the weakest link

Weakest Link：Routine
This is the main factor blocking your action. To make the behavior happen, address this first.

How to Boost Ability?

✓ Correct Approach

  • • Shrink the behavior: from 30 mins to 5 mins
  • • Simplify steps: reduce decisions
  • • Remove obstacles: prepare items in advance
  • • Leverage routine: attach to daily habits

✗ Common Mistakes

  • • Waiting for perfect timing: 'when I have time'
  • • Changing too much: multiple dimensions at once
  • • Ignoring weakest link: focusing on motivation only
  • • Setting high standards: trying to be perfect

"Making behavior easier is more important than increasing motivation."
