Big changes start with small steps. This principle has long been proven to be effective in various aspects of life, from learning to developing new skills.

Belle Beth Cooper, co-founder of Australian startup Hello Code, shares her cool technique for creating new habits through the art of small steps. Here are some tips that can help you start reading more and learning a foreign language, shared by the Telegram channel “Start Something!”

1. Reading: One page per night

Start by reading just one page before bed each night. Even if you manage to read more, consider the day a success if you read at least one page. Gradually increase your reading time, going from 15 to 30 minutes before bed and in the morning.

2. French: one lesson every morning

If you want to learn a foreign language, try to do at least one lesson in the Duolingo app every morning. Each lesson takes only five minutes, so it can be completed easily, for example, during breakfast. Gradually increase the number of lessons you do each day.

3. Work on one habit at a time

Make it a rule to only work on one habit at a time. Make sure the new habit becomes automatic for you before you start the next one.
