'Tiny Habits' Are The Key To Behavioral Change

Want to start a new habit? Think small. That's the counterintuitive idea in BJ Fogg's book, Tiny Habits. Fogg explains that making small behavior changes requires just a little motivation and lots of celebrating — and can lead to big change.

Changing our behaviors can feel like a monumental task. We pressure ourselves to go big or go home. Not surprisingly, these big expectations are often unrealistic, and that’s a recipe for disappointment and self-criticism.

Instead, we should think small — as in tiny behaviors that can become habits. The idea is to make these behavior changes so small that they’re easy to do, according to BJ Fogg, a behavior scientist at Stanford University and author of the new book Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything.

“It’s easier to create habits and change than most people think, and it’s faster than most people think,” Fogg says. “It can even be fun, if you do it in the right way.”

Boogers

Today you got a bloody nose. When I realized what was happening I freaked out and you had only just started crying, I think, from the pain. You had shoved your finger up your nose, there was a big old booger on your hand. A few minutes later, with blood all over your face, hands, and clothes, I couldn’t help but laugh a little, since you had forgotten why you were crying and were happily eating a rice cake.

People around the world use more than a trillion plastic bags every year. They’re made of a notoriously resilient kind of plastic called polyethylene that can take decades to break down.

But the humble wax worm may hold the key to biodegrading them.

It was an accidental discovery. Scientist and beekeeper Federica Bertocchini was frustrated to find that her beehives were infested with the caterpillar larvae of Galleria mellonella, commonly known as a wax worm.

Bertocchini, who works at the Institute of Biomedicine and Biotechnology of Cantabria in Spain, tells NPR that she was cleaning out the hive and put the worm-infested parts in a plastic bag.

But shortly afterward, she noticed that “they were all crawling around my place and the plastic bag was riddled with holes.”
