"We overestimate what we can do in a day, and underestimate what we can do in a year."

1. The 2-Minute Start
Begin with an absurdly small action (e.g., "Write one sentence").
2. The Anchor Habit
Pair it with an existing routine (e.g., "After my morning coffee").
"Discipline is choosing between what you want now and what you want most."
