Tiny surprises for happiness and health | BJ Fogg, PhD | TEDxMaui
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Behavior scientist and expert on habit formation BJ Fogg shares "The Maui Habit", the one "tiny habit" he says is the most powerful and most effective to come from his work at Stanford’s Persuasive Tech Lab. You'll be surprised how simple it is!
Behavior scientist, expert on habit formation, founder of Stanford’s Persuasive Tech Lab, one of Fortune’s “10 new gurus you should know.”
BJ Fogg, PhD directs the Behavior Design Lab at Stanford University. An experimental psychologist, BJ creates groundbreaking models and methods for changing human behavior.
Each year, BJ designs a new course to teach at Stanford, with topics ranging from mobile persuasion to health habits. His former students have created many successful companies, including Pulse (acquired by LinkedIn) and Instagram (acquired by Facebook).
BJ is the author of Persuasive Technology: Using Computers to Change What We Think and Do, the first book to explain how technology can be designed to influence people. Fortune selected him as one of 10 “New Gurus You Should Know.”
Over the last three years, BJ has personally coached more than 20,000 people, using a simple and effective method called “Tiny Habits.”

At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

I know you see one of these comments on every TEDx talk, but this has been the most life-changing talk I've ever seen. I've incorporated the "Tiny Habits" method to PHENOMENAL success in the past few months. Highly recommend watching it and highly recommend BJ Fogg's book. You won't regret it.
He's such a sweet man. Thank you for the talk!
I feel like this guy just radiates love...I'm not sure if he's got kids but boy does he have the "fantastic dad" vibes! So nourishing to know there are people on the planet like this :-) Hugs all the way to Maui and you Sir!

Thank you kind person.
BJ’s sense of humour really helps too
I’m changing it to, “I’m going to have a productive day!” (With a big smile.) That’s what I’ve been struggling, and where I need to anchor my mindset and focus.

Today is going to be a great day!
It helps me to be positively working on my research. Currently, I am working on my thesis. I was inspired even I feel a bit tired. Thank you for a great talk.
BJ Fogg PhD is one of the most JOYful and enlightening teachers based on true science. Today is a GREAT day on Maui for sure! I love what and how he explains that these tiny habits can help to create even more beneficial habits. It's a GREAT day for a Maui style beach gathering for FUN with friends, and for me to hit a zinger across the table tennis board! Mahalo Nui Loa,
Thank You BJ Fogg for an insightful talk.
Heute ist ein schöner Tag:)
“It’s gonna be a great day!” It’s a blownaway message to my life as well. Thank you Dr. Fogg❤️
i'm learning so much from this guy
Enjoyed learned, the trigger, your passion!
Today is going to be a MauiWaui Day!....literally!....I'm back home in Maui.😁🙏🤙
"It's going to be a GREAT DAY!"
Looks simple but I guess it works... My tiny habbit every morning is saying "I will celebrate life"
Great talk about behaviour and habits, things I have been doing a while without knowing the scientific foundations about it.
Yes, it's going to be a GREAT day, thanks! :)
This is a great presentation BJ! Thank you.
SO SIMPLE...AND YET SO WONDERFUL...TOTALLY JOYFUL!!!
비제이 포그 너무 선한 사람 이라는게 느껴지는 강의였어요 ㅎ 습관의 디테일 읽고 비제이 포그에대해 더 알고싶어 여기까지 왔네요. 약간의 긴장과 함께 넘넘 좋은사람이라는 느낌이 여기까지 전달 되어 기쁘네요
thank you...tiny habit is a great giant teaching.
Great natural speaker
"Try stuff and learn and adapt as you go along."
it's gonna be a great day!
you explained tiny habits & patterns really well, thanks for the tips I'll remember this next time!
Kudos to Zig Ziglar! In his programs, he has people star off with this exact phrase, "Today is going to be a great day!" BJ Fogg is reaffirming with data what Zig has taught for decades.

as a person looking for lasting positive change ... BJ Fogg had many great gems plant a good seed (intrinsic positive self-benefit ...) , in a right spot (love, fun, laughter ...) ... it will bloom naturally without further intervention ... (lasting change ... stickiness)

20 days into the tiny habits.. And doing great.. it works
Make every day a great one.
My warmest thanks, BJ Fogg. Today is already a great day on my island of Manhattan for meeting you here, on Tedx. All in one AM moment, you gifed me with a Great Day AND I Am So Grateful for you. Your luminous gentleness and powerful motivational invitation are a rare combination. Another "tiny habit" that is fun and radically transforms life:" If it takes 2 mns or less, do it right away. "offered by David Allen is going to be in excellent company with yours. Great power juice for the day!

Thank you, so helpful and simple! Did you wonder where our perfection anxiety came from? I think it came from the old Judaic/Christian notion of God as judge, of studying kinds of sin, all that. Thank God more and more of us have bigger and better concepts of God as Source, as the Force, as Love, as the One "in Whom we live and love and have our being, as Consciousness." Mary Feagan
Don't forget It's gonna be a great day😀❤
Spectacularly cool.
It's going be a great day. That's cool.
EVERY DAY IS GOING TO BE A GREAT DAY FOR ME!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It's going to be a great day
It's going to be a great day and it is.
TODAY is ALREADY a GREAT DAY.
It’s going to be a great day :)
HABIT stands for: Highly Acquired Behavior Intensely Trained.
It's gonna be a great night xD And tomorrow is going to be a great day!
Have a great day habit from today
What if you say "it going to be a great day" but not in a good tone?
Positive thoughts , thiniking , deeds , action , work leads to a happy , joyful , satisfy and successful life . 👍 Allah help those who help themselves .
We Christians have a word of God that is very similar. It says: "This is day that The Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it."
teaches a class on persuasion technology at Stanford and its dangers..his students use this class to get us addicted to their billion dollar apps and websites..Ironic
How about the struggle of waking up enough to put my feet on the floor, so I can exercise this tiny habit?

#1Lazer . I suffered from that too , but when I learned to remind myself before sleep (more than 3 times seperate ) especially when puting my head on the pillow I strongly imagined how perfect tomorrow will be if I wokeup smiling and gotout of the bed earlier, - thank GOD - I it finally happened :) ▶hope that this helped you ◀

This sounds like an argument for changing the design. Try saying it while you're still all cosy in bed. Try saying it the first time you look in the mirror. I've tried both, and the mirror thing works for me.
You need to focus on your needs and realize that your happiness is also essential and for this, you should start doing what will dilute the routine. So, practice yoga and meditation along with calming herbal extracts from Planet ayurveda which will keep you in good condition.
Alcoholics Anonymous practice these tiny habits and teach them, - have done for sinces the 1930s. Postive thinking, gratitude, out of self.

AA definitely got behavior change right. It's been called a change making machine. They knew then what social scientists and psychologists like Dr. Fogg have learned through their research. The book "The Power of Habit" refers heavily to how AA got it right.

Hi, I'm Jeff and I'm STILL alcoholic? AA uses a negative statement, which is that they still are "Alcoholics", even when it is a past tense, for most of the AA members. Even when they have been abstinent for day or a decade, concentrating on "I'm an Alcoholic" always points a person to a Repeated Self Defeating behavior Pattern , as a result, doing the same things, saying the same things, the same pattern is repeated over many years and usually gets worse. I'm not saying that the whole AA program is negative, I'm sure it helped many believers.

Yes similar to AA, in concept. The founders of AA based the program on biblical principles. Wisdom works, which is what makes it timeless.

“I’m all about practice” - yeah, the practice of ripping off a bit-part character in a Hollywood Movie! ;-).
So the guy has 500,000 research points but he rips off a line from Jerry Macguire!! It’s the guy from Jerry Macguire who claps his hands and says “Today is going to be a great day” every morning. Only in the US could you get away with ripping off a Hollywood Movie and then centre a book and TED talk on it without anyone calling you out - hahaha
The ill-fated thrill trivially transport because butane fifthly shade as a taboo poland. crazy, bright mother
The able hall accordantly behave because himalayan preferentially hurry pro a likeable ghost. cloistered, straight comic
Get to the point. Quit it with the gem, made me not even want to finish the video.
so all you have to do to have a great day is to say "it's going to be great?" - sounds like BS wishful thinking.
