Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything By BJ Fogg, PhD The Fogg Behavior Mode l proposes that behaviors are the result of three factors converging: Motivation, Ability, and Prompt (B=MAP ). Motivation reflects the desire for an action, Ability represents its ease, and Prompt is the cue initiating the behavior. Changing behavior requires a thoughtful, small adjustment aligned with MAP. This technique involves an Anchor (prompt) setting off a Behavior (tiny change), followed by a Celebration (increased motivation), forming the ABC method: Anchor prompts Behavior, resulting in Celebration. Since motivation is inconsistent, it’s better to define the desired outcome, list potential supportive behaviors, and graph them based on impact and ease. High-impact, easy actions land as "Golden Behaviors" in the upper right quadrant. Simplifying "Golden Behaviors" accelerates habit formation. Rather than aiming for 20 pushups, start with two; opt for a sip of water
