Small Changes…Big Rewards
Write down a few behaviors you’d liketo start doing on a regular basis.
Then, write down the tiniest version of the behavior or the first step in the process that leads to the behavior. (Remember the “floss one tooth” and “put out my vitamins” examples.)

Linking Anchors to Target Behavior
Link anchor and target behavior by making sure they are related in:• Behavior• Proximity• Time• Frequency• Purpose
Take a look at the tiny behaviors you’ve written down and then think about the many routine behaviors you do everyday that could serve as anchors to trigger your new tiny behaviors.

Tiny Habits in the Recovery ProcessSet the stage for positive change
• "After I open my eyes in the morning, I will think of one person to contact who encourages me to stay sober...and I'll say, 'Great!'"
• "At the next AA meeting, as soon as I take my seat, I will look at one person and smile...and say to myself, 'You can do it!’”
Address critical moments
• "After I get an invitation to go outside to smoke with the gang at the office, I will look at the photo of my children on desk and say "no thanks." Then, I'll say, "Good job! Good dad!"
• "After I arrive at the party, I will find a place to stand which blocks my view of the drinks...and say, "Out of sight, out of mind.'"
