2 Tips how small changes create big results

We often feel that we have to make drastic changes in order to have long-term effects, but it’s the small changes that will lead to great success. In both life and business. I'll give you 2 tips for using small changes to create big results. 


Change your routine


What are some of the daily routines you have in your life? This can be your morning ritual or the time you go to bed. This can be things such as where you brainstorm, in what room in the house you work on yourself or your goals, or what you do to get you in the right mind state.


A lot of research has concluded that small changes in environment and patterns can create a burst of fresh thinking and increase motivation and drive. If we change our routine, we disrupt the associations and patterns in our brains, which snap the brain out of its box and stimulates creativity.


Consider going for a walk or thinking about your goals while in nature. Or perhaps begin a routine of exercising in the morning or doing a gratitude journal before bed.


The 10-minutes rule


Another example to create small changes is committing to dedicate 10 minutes to a particular aspect of your goal that you don't enjoy or have resistance to.


This can be powerful because what tends to happen is that you're much more productive in those 10 minutes because you know you can quit after a short period, which releases tension and creates a place that allows inspiration to seep in.


Commit to yourself and get started!


The 10 minute rule is a great tool to fight procrastination. Dedicating 10 minutes gets you started and by doing this you may find that you dedicate more than the original 10 minutes because you have gotten the ball rolling.


But again, the simple reason this works is because when the brain perceives the option to be able to stop in a short period, it allows the brain to stop resisting.
