The 20 Second Rule
We all have a vice we’d like to exchange for a better alternative. It may be grabbing that cookie instead of a handful of celery. Or it may be plunking down in front of the TV instead of reading. Whatever it may be, there’s hope.
Results show that for example a cafeteria could reduce the consumption of unhealthy snacks by moving the ice cream refrigerator further from the lunch line. Or increase the chances of reading a book by placing it next to the TV remote and moving the remote’s batteries into the next room.
To explain further, when you make your bad habit harder to do while making the good habit easier, you are much more likely to take the easy route.
The golden rule is to make your vice 20 seconds away, while making your good habit immediately available.
Welcome to The 2mm Shift Blog
I’ve often found that just by adjusting what you do and how you do it in a small way often reveals results that you would never have expected. Adjusting the way you stand, sit, think, the words you use, how you look at some one, a slight touch, how you respond all impact on how successful, confident, fulfilled you are and how meaningful your life becomes.
The 2mm Shift blog is all about finding out all those small changes that can make a large impact. Finding those critical ‘2mm’ adjustments that allow you to quickly make the shifts that create breakthroughs in your life, releases you from what's holding you back, creates value and meaningful improvements, every time and fast.
It's rare that a big idea comes along and completely changes your life. But what is true that small events shape what you do, the decsions you make, the way you lead your life, how you become who you are and what you acheive.
Life is made up many 2mm shifts, they're everywhere around us, if someone could tell you what they are and if you could use them and make the difference, and by adding up all those 2mm shifts just imagine what you could acheive.
What if you had one chance to accelerate this process and make the shift, remove the barriers and make it happen, why wouldn't you seize the opportunity?
What are The 2mm Shifts in your life that have made the difference? I'd love to hear about them;
