Description

If “30 minutes a day” keeps turning into zero, your habit isn’t wrong—the scale is. In this episode, Darya reframes “discipline” as design, sharing how shrinking the door to your habits (the first 30–120 seconds) builds real consistency—no shame, no perfectionism.

You’ll learn

• Why big goals trigger resistance (and tiny starts invite action)
  
  
• How to choose a tiny door in 5 domains: health, clarity, focus, relationships, creativity
  
  
• The 30-second friction remover to make starting effortless
  
  
• A 5-line re-entry script so a missed day never becomes a spiral
  
  
• A 7-Day Start-Smaller Sprint you can begin today
  

Try this today:

Write one tiny door (≤2 minutes) + pick a cue you already do (tea, commute, dishes). Track starts only for 7 days. Sticky note: “I only have to start.”
