There are times when we look at something we would like to accomplish and it just feels too far out of reach - like the work required to get us to that point is not only completely overwhelming but also elusive in nature.

When we consider taking action we think:

How will I find the time?

How will I find the energy?

How will I acquire the skills?

Do I even have what it takes?

By the time we get through this list of questions, we decide it’s too hard, will take too long, we definitely don’t have the skills and we don’t know where to begin to acquire them.  

So, we do nothing.  

I want to invite you to an alternative way to take action in your life: practice taking tiny action.

What is tiny action?

Tiny action is those little steps that we are tempted to skip entirely because we falsely assume they don’t matter or won’t make a difference.  

But the truth is that if we want to become better action takers, taking tiny action might just be the prerequisite you didn’t know you needed.  

Taking tiny action is taking any action step and making it smaller, less overwhelming, less time consuming, less frequent, less energy-consuming.  

As we take action in these small ways, our identity starts to shift and we see ourselves as more capable, more confident, more courageous. We see ourselves as action takers who go after the things we want and actually get them! 

This shift is not tiny. Taking tiny action leads to BIG shifts. In this episode, I share 4 ways taking tiny action gives you more power. Then, I share 3 simple steps to taking tiny action #everydamnday.
