🧩 Breaking a Goal Into Small, Doable Steps
One of the biggest reasons goals feel overwhelming isn’t the goal itself —it’s trying to do all of it at once.
So let’s keep this simple and real.
🎯 The Goal
“I want to drink more water each day.”
Sounds easy… until life gets busy.
Step 1: Get specific
Instead of saying:
“Drink more water”
Try:
“I will drink 2 litres of water each day.”
Now your brain knows what “done” looks like.
Step 2: Ask the identity question.
Who do I need to become to do this?
Someone who remembers to drink water — even on busy days.
This turns the goal into a way of being, not a task.
Step 3: Break it into tiny steps
Instead of focusing on 2 litres, think:
- 1 glass when I wake up
- 1 glass with breakfast
- 1 glass mid-morning
- 1 glass with lunch
- 1 glass mid-afternoon
- 1 glass with dinner
- 1 glass in the evening
Small. Clear. Achievable.
Step 4: Attach it to something you already do
This is the secret sauce.
- Wake up → drink water
- Sit down to eat → drink water
- Make a coffee → drink water first
No motivation required — just routine.
Step 5: Celebrate the showing up
Success isn’t perfection.
Success is:
“I kept a small promise to myself today.”
That’s how confidence is built.
🌱 Takeaway
Big goals are achieved through small steps that are consistent. You don’t need to do everything — you just need to do the next doable thing.
💬 Your turn
Drop one goal below and break it into 3 tiny steps.
Let’s grow this together 💛. What are your takeaways on this and do you have anything to add to the discussion?
