www.tedxfremont.com What if someone told you to floss only one tooth everyday? Or start the new year, not with grand resolutions, but with a simple challenge.. like ONE pushup a day? BJ Fogg shows us that the key to lasting change does not lie in planning big, monumental changes, but in thinking really, really small. Chosen by Fortune Magazine as one of "10 New Gurus You Should Know", Fogg directs the Persuasive Tech Lab at Stanford University.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Dr. Fogg's book, "Tiny Habits" is a must-read. This video is must-watch. Thank you, BJ. AFTER I WATCH EVERY KZfaq VIDEO, I reach out to someone, text mostly, and say you are awesome, in an appropriate way. Gracias amigos. Who's watching with me in 2024?

Meditating right after you wake up doesn’t give you the full affect because your body reverts back to when you are sleeping. It’s better to finish your morning hygienic routine then once you’re awake go and meditate

This really works. About a year ago I started doing 5 pushups every time I put on shaving cream and am waiting to shave. It's now almost impossible for me to not do 20-30 pushups every time I shave. The only time I don't do pushups is when I don't shave.

I was introduced to the concept of 'small steps' decades ago and it helped me quit smoking in 1981. Took me three years back then, but have not relapsed, suffer no cravings; I'm 'home free'! Awesome!!! Now I'm struggling with PTSD, poverty, agoraphobia, isolation, AND deeply entrenched defences that translate into bad habits. One is suicidal ideation! Indescribably grateful to have stumbled on this KZfaq video! (I entered "Change behaviour" in the search bar.) Am so excited to start my life over again, differently, now!!!

I am hearing your voice. As you try to cope with life, I hope you can translate your negative habits into more positive habits to overcome your suffering. Life can be so unfair, and poverty happens all around us in this world. If you think of each day as a new day; then, you may allow yourself to experience life in a totally new way. If you experience your day from a whole new perspective, you may be able to overcome the thoughts that may be leading you to suicide. Think of each day as a whole new day, so that you can extend your life. You will find more reasons to live. You can define all of the days that are coming to you as totally new days that can bring to you new experiences and new lessons. Think of each day as a new day and a new birth for you. Yes, think of each day as a rebirth, so that you may grow your desire to overcome the suicidal thoughts. This world can offer you new experiences that you have never had in your whole life, if you just see the world in a new way each and every day. Sometimes, your days can look and can feel the same. However, if you look at your days from a closer point of view, you will realize that your days in your life are never all the same days. Each day has its own twists and turns. Each day can teach you new lessons in life. So, life can feel new from one hour to the next hour. Life can feel new from one moment to next moment. You can have a rebirth. In this way, you almost have a kind of spiritual experience to help you cope with your suffering and your poverty. Life is always new. I hope you learn to cope with this life, so that you do not end it.

i think this concept can also be used to break a bad habit. For example, if you wanna break the habit of unnecessary eating at midnight, you start by saying “whenever I feel hungry at midnight, I will drink water instead.” It’s like diverting your response to a new one from cues that leads you to bad habits or behavior. Idk if that works, just some realizations which I might try. Will get back here if that works for me. Reaaly love this Ted talk btw. 👍🏻

I love when ideas from TEDx speakers merge with what I am taught by my faith as a Muslim... We're taught that consistency is key - the most beloved deeds to God are those that are done consistently even if tiny! :) "We will be relentless in our pursuit for perfection. We won't ever be perfect - but in the process we will achieve greatness. "

guachingman Hello! I can't speak for muwahiddah but I am Muslim as well and saw your comment so I thought I would answer your questions from another Muslim. It depends on the topic if we hate or dismiss it. I wouldn't question my faith if an idea was contrary to it because as a Muslim I believe that God is the most wise and knows what is better for me, more than a person would. I hope this answers your questions! :)
@Grejegando
@Grejegando 9 жыл бұрын
guachingman To answer your question, anything but the last one. This is Al-Maidah 5:101-102 (Koran) "O you who have believed, do not ask about things which, if they are shown to you, will distress you. But if you ask about them while the Qur'an is being revealed, they will be shown to you. Allah has pardoned that which is past; and Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing. A people asked such [questions] before you; then they became thereby disbelievers" Here, Allah, clearly orders Muslims not to ask about things which may lead them to become disbelievers. What's meant by 'things' here is basically anything which Muhammad could not come up with a compelling answer for. For example, he was once asked about the spirit and was perplexed by the question, so he did what he ususally does best in such embarrassing situations, he made 'Allah' answer that. And of course Muslims would stupidly argue that Muhammad was not making Allah up and that he was only a messenger of Allah, in fact, they would even claim Muhammad was an illiterate or 'ummi' (Arabic). Anyway, after asking them for a 3-day period to seek for an answer, Muhammad could not come up with one. Then this is what Allah's answer came like: "And they ask you, [O Muhammad], about the spirit. Say, the spirit is of the affair of my Lord. And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a little." Al-Isra 17:85 I hope this answers your questions. To any Muslim reading this, please do not expect a reply from my side to any responses you might post here. I simply do not debate with religious people (especially Muslims) simply because 'faith' means belief without evidence, and Muslims are too scared and brainwashed to ask or doubt their religion, or think independently. So let's not waste my time and yours. I hope you all go to the heaven you created in your midiocre minds and leave the world to the brave ones and the open-minded.

I bought his book a few weeks ago and Ive read 1/2 of it. I can tell you that this book is different from others on forming habits. This one has a few extra ingredients that have given me a lot of hope. The simple act of acknowledging your awesomeness every time somehow reinforces the behavior. Also, anchoring them to existing behaviors and making them super easy makes SO much sense.
@QuickTalks
@QuickTalks 8 жыл бұрын
Key Point: "Set the habit you want to make right after something you already do." i.e. Do 2 pushups right after going to the bathroom or flossing just 1 tooth after brushing your teeth. What's important is to make the habit TINY so that you will do it no matter how tired or unmotivated you are, yet you will be creating the seed for a good habit nonetheless. (Also that you should praise yourself after doing the habit. Tell yourself "I'm awesome!" or pump your fists in the air)

I think to many people look at something like getting into shape as a huge undertaking that is to big to even start. I was one of those people, but I started with doing 5 squat's each time I took a dog out. With 2 dogs that want outside many times a day, those squat's are adding up. Then I added doing things like, leg lifts while waiting for email to log in, or a page to load. Small hand weights are also sitting near by that I can grab while Facebook logs in...so, I am doing the same things I have always done, but I am getting in a bit more exercise while I work. I just keep adding a small bit at a time...I may never be Super Women, but I am closer now than I was a couple of weeks ago. I would never belong to a gym and planning to add a BIG new peice to my day was not in the cards, so these little things are the only way to go. And yes, I need a trigger. ;-} Sheryl

a great idea, and one of the reasons fasting is so powerful. For fasting, you start with something that you really want to think about, set a time frame and a something to fast from, then every time you feel hungry, it triggers you to contemplate.

I am endeavoring to get "back in the saddle of life" with renewed motivation and a reason to "endeavor" beyond a paycheck and having "stuff" in my life. We all need mentors, books, teachers,....and we also must be willing to teach others who may ask us something. Small successes and the "dance", probably helps to rewire our brains. Our brains are, or have plasticity.

That's probably true for typical people. It is not necessarily true for those of us who struggle with the habits of daily living. About the only things I do reliably every day: pee at some point, drink and/or eat something at some point. There are days I do not sleep, days I do not get dressed. There used to be days I did not communicate with anyone. I will have to think about how I could make these tiny habits work for me, since I am also stubborn.

@@JaniceLHz I'd guess that between putting food and/or drink in your mouth and peeing would give you at least 3 opportunities to create a tiny habit (after you eat, after you drink, after you pee). What blew me away when I put this into practice was how celebrations changed the way my brain works. I had a particular toxic thought (bitterness towards a person who did a very bad thing to me) vaporize. I wasn't even working on that issue. But that person's name came up and that's when I realized the toxic thoughts weren't there any more. It wasn't that they diminished. They were gone. The only thing that I changed was celebrating. I loved it so much I celebrated anything and everything I could find. If I couldn't find something, then I looked around for something ridiculously easy to do so I could do a fist bump up in the air and say "yes!!". I tried just celebrating for no reason and that was just okay. My brain was too smart. It wanted a tangible reason to celebrate. It could be a small tangible reason and that works. It still works! In other words, I could celebrate any positive action even if it wasn't a habit. My husband caught it and now we're constantly playing, celebrating, getting Alexa to give each other attaboys etc. This has been going on for nearly a year. We literally are not the same people. I'm encouraging you to perhaps not concern yourself with a particular habit. But every time you eat, look for one positive thing to do (put the fork in the dishwasher for example) and then celebrate. The celebrations done at the same time of the actions are at least brain changing - if not life changing. The habits can come later if you wish.

I was procrastinating studying, but I started to set low goals such as 5 seconds and eventually I ended studying at least for an hour daily. My problem was when I had a weekend, since I used to study after work and I didn't know why I didn't have the motivation to do it. After watching this video I figured it out.

Kind of like the opposite to a 'death by a thousand cuts' I want to say 'the good life by a thousand little successes'. I think of it in terms of movie making; a movie is a continuous stream of small segments of footage that each were equally attended to in terms of achieving excellence, no matter how long it took to attain that excellence. But when you add it all up as well as editing it all down to the best of the best, you get something greater than the sum of its parts, or at least sufficiently enough to make an profit out of it.

This video has totally helped me keep up with a book that I'm working on! I found something that I do every day: I get in bed. (I'm awesome!) So I write [at least] one bit every day just after I get in bed. I'm grateful! I'll come back and report when the book is finished! I'm getting there!!!!

Awesome talk! I think that visualizing the motivation 1st is key and finding the right spot in the Daily routine where the new behavior/habit fits, I also loved the ritual of celebrating e.g. Charles Duhigg suggested to allow the Chocolate only after exercising as a reward instead of just eating it in front of the TV and the cue or trigger for the exercising could be after I woke up and went to the bathroom I do an exercise, starting small with only a few repetitions as suggested in this talk! Cool stuff!!!

Seems easy enough. I did 2 burpees after every pee. At home. In public, couple minutes of exotic dance-yoga stretches. Why are people criticizing this? Anything that helps other people improve, thank you. Easier. Double thanks. This takes guts and smarts. Bet most of us here have not even put this to the test. Why even bother to watch this entire video? This seems to zip lips at my work: For every 2 minutes bitching about (job), dedicate 2 minutes gratitude about (regular paycheck, feed the kids, friends at work...) Having to think is really hard for some them, especially about gratitude. They hard wired themselves to dumb down. Once they got into smarter talk, they are actually nice to work with.

This is really insightful and practical. Building a new habit is never easy, we can't master at it quickly. But with tiny habit repeated over a long time really helps us build it as a everyday habit without much effort. Will definitely apply this method to form new habits.

I don't want to discourage you but sometimes it is quality over quantity. If someone is capable of doing 30-50 consecutive push ups he or she should think about making the exercise harder (adding weight, one arm, handstand, balancing on physioballs,...). Just making an exercise that you've pretty much mastered over and over again won't get you far.

@@nameless5646 I was about to say something similar. Instead of 250 push-ups 50 reps of five different small exercises would be much more fruitful in terms of strength and long-term fitness.

Tiny Habits made my goals achieve-able and removed my shame cloud of if I wasn’t reaching a goal effortlessly right out of the gate. I became aware of good choices I made in the right direction and therefore stopped telling myself what I should be doing instead. Tiny movements!

Key point @11:10.. for tasks that we have low motivation for, make it really easy to do them. Also, pick a trigger which this task will come after. Eg. after I drink me tea, I will drink some water.
