Lesson 4 of 6 · Set the floor, not the ceiling

The one sentence

Name the floor, the time, and the place. All three.

The move

Setting the floor

10 minutes or less

Choose the smallest amount you will keep doing on the worst day. Smaller than you think.
Write it down as a sentence with a time in it.
Do that and no more for two weeks, even on days you could do more.
The point is that the floor holds, not that it is impressive. A floor you keep beats a ceiling you miss.

If it does not work

If you miss a day, the floor was too high. Lower it rather than promising harder, and start again the next day rather than the next month.

A specific plan works better than a good intention. Fill both halves in your own words.

When

I will

Put it in your calendar

Pick a day and a time and you will get a calendar file to open. Nothing is sent anywhere.
