  1. I'm Nathan from two minute mindsets, and it seems we're
  2. always looking for something to motivate us some outside force
  3. to give us a push.
  4. But a push isn't sustainable because our mind resists change.
  5. Don't believe me.
  6. See how easy it is to get a parking spot
  7. of the gym in March compared to January long term,
  8. we need something to pull us without effort.
  9. The secret is to start small and build.
  10. If you want to live a healthier life, don't try
  11. eight different things at once because it's too much to
  12. sustain. You Quit him all.
  13. Pick one thing you can do and do it every
  14. day. This will hardware your neural pathways in your brain
  15. so the action becomes routine.
  16. For example, I started small by reducing my portion size
  17. at dinner.
  18. It was hard at first, but with my daily commitment,
  19. I started to lose weight.
  20. I kept it off, and that was a huge reward
  21. that felt great.
  22. Basking in the reward is critically important because the emotion
  23. you feel will help rewire your brain.
  24. The next habit of cutting back on sugar was a
  25. lot easier because of the reward I got from the
  26. first half of that built.
  27. Now I'm automatically acting on a series of healthy routines
  28. on I'm doing without thinking I'm 48 but I feel
  29. like I'm 28.
  30. Don't focus on the push of motivation.
  31. Motivation isn't sustainable.
  32. Aim for the pole of habits built on small daily
  33. routines. Rewire your brain to effortlessly pull you to success.
  34. And that's true motivation.
  35. Right now.
  36. Open your calendar and make a recurring reminder to do
  37. one small thing daily that will lead you to your
  38. goal. Do it now or you'll get distracted and won't
  39. happen. I'm Nathan from two minute mindsets, and I know
  40. this is your year.
  41. You can do it.
