How to Reset your life: Our minds have limited capacity to consciously process information at one time. Too many thoughts or distractions overload the mind. Having a clear vision or goal allows you to focus your mental energy productively. Break big goals down into smaller, achievable steps and follow a routine. Understand what you don't want in life first, to help clarify what you truly desire. Start small with your ideal life vision and refine it over time through trial and error. Build habits for learning new information and putting that knowledge into practice. Plan your week in detail to structure your time effectively and identify friction points. Iterate on your weekly plan, adjusting the routine until it flows smoothly. Stepping back into an effective routine takes persistent adjustment after being disrupted. Sticking to systems for productivity will naturally build beneficial habits over time.

If you want to change your life, you need to make tiny, nearly undetectable decisions every hour of every day until those choices are habituated. Then you’ll just continue to do them. If you want to spend less time on your phone, deny yourself the chance to check it one time today. If you want to eat healthier, drink half a cup of water today. If you want to sleep more, go to bed 10 minutes earlier tonight than you did last night. If you want to exercise more, do it now for just 10 minutes. If you want to read, read one page. If you want to meditate, do so for 30 seconds. Then keep doing those things. Do them every single day. You’ll get used to not checking your phone. You’ll want more water, and you’ll drink more water. You’ll run for 10 minutes, and you won’t feel like you have to stop, so you won’t. You’ll read one page, grow interested, and read another. You don’t need to wait until you feel like changing to start changing. All you need is to make one microshift at a time and then let the energy and momentum build. YOU DON’T CHANGE IN BREAKTHROUGHS, YOU CHANGE IN MICROSHIFTS!
