The Secret To Doubling Your Business In 2019: Microhabits
A microhabit is the smallest version of the habit you are cultivating.
For example: if the habit I wanted to keep was to “do 50 pushups daily”, the microhabit is “do 1 pushup” or even “get into push up position.”
Want to make a big change in your life? It all starts with changing your habits.
But changing your habits doesn’t happen all at once.
Microhabits are the secret solution to build and change habits that you want to keep for the rest of your life (but no one talks about this…)
Use Habit Loops To Supercharge Microhabits
A habit loop is a trigger/cue that leads to an action to a reward.
One of my habit loops was:
Cue: Urge to go on Facebook
Routine: Message people on Facebook
Reward: Feel less isolated
As entrepreneurs, we have 100s of habit loops that we operate by. Some that are constructive, while others which are destructive.
But the best part is that you just need one new habit loop and one new microhabit to kickstart the process to double your business in 2019.
Can Microhabits Help You Get More Clients?
Let’s say you are an owner of a marketing agency and right now you have 1 focus in your business: get more clients.
In order to get more clients, you must get more leads.
In order to get more leads, you must get in front of new prospects.
And in order to get in front of new prospects, you must email dream clients that don’t know you (yet).
Therefore, to close new clients, you must send out emails to dream clients everyday.
So the habit to get more clients can be
“send 10 emails to prospects per day”. The microhabit would be “open excel sheet with a list of dream clients to email.”
Sounds too simple right? Well…
Here’s How Gajan Used A Microhabit To Generate $100,000 In Sales
Gajan runs an agency in the marketing space. Even though the company was doing well, he wanted more!
The challenge in his business was that he wasn’t closing the high ticket, dream clients that his business was now ready for.
Can you guess the one microhabit that changed it all for him?
His microhabit was doing his first pomodoro (a 10min focused work session at 6:45am).
This allowed him to procrastinate less, get the highest value, highest leverage tasks before 9am.
Imagine this: what if your dream clients are waiting for you RIGHT NOW, but they don’t know about you because you aren’t implementing your microhabit?
Now, How Do You Stay Accountable To A Microhabit?
That is the million dollar question! To define a microhabit, you must:
1) First choose the goal that would be the most meaningful outcome in your life (personal or professional). Ie: more clients.
2) Then, define the habit(s) that would allow you to get that goal.
3) And finally, choose the one microhabit that will allow all of it to become a reality.
Now, what if there was a proven way to do your microhabit every day without fail, keep you accountable to it and nearly guarantee you stay on track to double your business in 2019?
