The winner of this Tiny Habits Small Success Giveaway is Melissa L. who said: “Not feeling well today due to a weird rash on my face, but since not feeling well I still needed a workout so I engaged in a wonderfully relaxing seated yoga routine! Yay me!”
Congratulations Melissa! Please send an email to support@simple-nourished-living.com to claim your gift card.
I want to help you change your life one tiny habit at a time. So today, I’m launching launching the Tiny Habits Celebrate Small Successes Giveaway. I got the idea while reading Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything (affiliate link) by BJ Fogg.
In addition to being a successful author and professor at Stanford, he is a lifetime WW, who also has provided consulting services to the company.
I’m a huge believer in his doable approach to behavior change and habit formation. I think you will be too once you test it out, which is what this giveaway is all about.
BJ says, “If you learn just one thing from this entire book, I hope it’s this, celebrate your tiny successes because you change best by feeling good, not by feeling bad.”

Making a change for the better is a big deal no matter how small and incremental. Don’t let the “go big or go home” mentality that pervades our society prevent you from feeling good and achieving the success you deserve.
Celebrating a win, no matter how tiny, will quickly lead to more wins.
I’ve found this to be very true in my life. I want the same for you.
Let’s give it a go, shall we?

How to Celebrate Your Tiny Habit Successes?
Celebrating tiny wins is key to locking in habits quickly and can help put an end to the all too damaging cycle of negative self-talk. Your celebration does not have to be something you say out loud or physically express.
The only rule is that it has to be something said or done — internally or externally — that makes you feel good and creates a feeling of success.
It could be a “yes!”; a fist pump; a big smile; a V with your arms. You might imagine the roar of the crowd; think to yourself “Good job” or “I got this”; or picture fireworks.
Here are 102 ideas for how to celebrate your tiny wins:

I’m most interested in trying the banana nut. I have been struggling with resisting sweets and have been looking for something healthy and satisfying that speaks to my sweet tooth. A friend told me Built Bars meet all three of my criteria and taste great! Banana nut bread is one thing I have been craving and that’s the flavor I’m ready to try.
