Here are 5 of my favorite Big Ideas from Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg. Hope you enjoy! BJ Fogg founded the Behavior Design Lab at Stanford University. He is one of the world's leading authorities on the science of behavior change. In this book, he introduces us to the core elements of his Fogg Behavior Model as we learn that habit change doesn't need to be as hard as we make it. As BJ tells us: "We are not the problem. Our approach to change is. It's a design flaw—not a personal flaw." Big Ideas we explore include the three elements that drive behavior (B = MAP!), the ABCs of Tiny Habits (Anchor + (Tiny) Behavior + Celebration!), the power of anchor prompts (After I (ANCHOR), I will (NEW HABIT), and the power of celebration (get your Shine on!).
