The bus is your goal, and the destination is clear. The doors open, and the very first step is too high.So you wait. The doors close. The bus pulls away with your goal on it, and you stay on the sidewalk in ordinary shoes, holding ordinary bags, on an ordinary day.Now imagine the driver sees you hesitate. Presses a button. The whole bus lowers, soft hydraulic sound and all, until that first step comes down to the sidewalk and meets you exactly where you stand.That is Petite Practice.In this episode:→ Why the design of the goal breaks first, and discipline takes the blame→ How to shrink a first step until it feels almost too small to matter→ What 20 years of behavioral economics keeps saying about lasting change→ Why the route has stops, and why you are allowed to pause or step off→ How to move on a low-motivation day when nothing is going right→ The one small step you can take today, before you feel ready"You were never the problem. Your step was just too high."The full story lives in the book. Petite Practice®: Small, Steady Steps to a Life of Momentum and Real Change is out August 16 on Amazon.
