How to change things when change is hard?

That's a great question because real change is tough. Our brains are wired for routine. The secret isn't some grand gesture; it's about making the change incredibly small.

Don't try to overhaul your life all at once. Instead, pick one tiny, almost laughably easy, action you can take. Want to be healthier? Don't commit to the gym for an hour. Just put on your workout clothes. This creates momentum.

Also, get very clear on your "why." Your reason for changing must be more compelling than your reason for staying the same.

Finally, expect setbacks. They are part of the process. The key isn't avoiding failure; it's about getting back on track quickly. Progress, not perfection, is the goal.
