Tiny Habits: The Science of Starting Small with BJ Fogg 베스트 인용
Your lack of progress is almost certainly a design flaw, not a personal one. The secret to bridging the gap between 'want' and 'do' is not to wait for a surge of motivation, but to make the change so small that it becomes impossible to fail.

자주 묻는 질문
The core philosophy of Tiny Habits is that behavior change is a design challenge rather than a personal failing. Instead of relying on willpower or motivation, which are often unreliable, BJ Fogg suggests making changes so small they are impossible to fail. By focusing on tiny actions, such as doing two push-ups after a specific routine, you can build lasting habits that stick without the need for intense discipline or hustle.
The Information-Action Fallacy is the mistaken belief that providing someone with the right facts or motivation will automatically result in a change in behavior. Behavioral science shows that humans do not work this way; knowing what you 'should' do rarely leads to actually doing it. Tiny Habits addresses this disconnect by moving away from information-based motivation and focusing on practical behavioral design to bridge the gap between wanting and doing.
BJ Fogg argues that relying on willpower is a design flaw because motivation is often fleeting. Many people blame themselves for a lack of progress, viewing it as a character flaw, but the reality is that the system of change is usually the problem. By shifting the focus from willpower to behavioral design, individuals can create sustainable habits that do not require a constant surge of resolve or 'hustle' to maintain over time.
