Days when going for a run feels as likely as signing up for a reality show set on the Moon. In moments like these \u2014 and trust me, they happen to everyone, even the ones who seem unstoppable \u2014 the only thing that can save you is to stop thinking big. And start thinking <em>small<\/em>. Tiny, if needed.<\/p>\n<h2>Why small wins are powerful (and not trivial)<\/h2>\n<p>This isn\u2019t about lowering the bar \u2014 it\u2019s a psychological strategy. In behavioral psychology, it\u2019s called the <em>self-efficacy principle<\/em>: the belief that you can take on and accomplish something. Not something epic, like climbing Everest in flip-flops. Something doable. Like clearing off the kitchen table. Or putting on your running shoes, without even promising yourself you\u2019ll go out.<\/p>\n<p>Every micro-action you take feeds your sense of control. Every small win is a vote of confidence you cast for yourself. And those votes, repeated, stacked up, amplified over time, change everything. Because \u2014 going back to the beginning \u2014 if today you manage to walk briskly for five minutes, tomorrow you might walk ten. Or maybe five again. But with less effort. And the day after that, who knows \u2014 you might even feel like running. Not because your inner coach is shouting at you, but because you remember what you&#8217;re capable of.<\/p>\n<h2>Realistic, progressive micro-goals<\/h2>\n<p>Okay, but what exactly are these <em>small wins<\/em>? And how do you set them without falling into the \u201ctoday I breathed, great job\u201d trap? Let\u2019s be clear: it\u2019s not about celebrating the obvious, but about finding meaning in what you choose to do with intention. Some examples?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Making your bed before leaving the house.<\/li>\n<li>Writing three lines in your journal (or in your phone notes).<\/li>\n<li>Drinking a glass of water as soon as you wake up.<\/li>\n<li>Putting on your running shorts, even if you don\u2019t end up leaving the house.<\/li>\n<li>Doing 5 push-ups. Yes, just 5.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What matters is that the goal is <em>clear<\/em>, <em>achievable<\/em>, and ideally <em>repeatable<\/em>. You don\u2019t need to shoot for the moon to feel better. In fact, aiming for the moon is often what keeps you stuck.<\/p>\n<h2>How to track them (and why it helps)<\/h2>\n<p>You might be wondering: do I really need to <em>write these things down<\/em>? The answer is yes, if you want them to stick. Our brain is a <strong>world-class self-sabotage machine<\/strong>: it quickly forgets what we did well and clings to what we didn\u2019t. Writing things down \u2014 in a journal, an app, or even on a sticky note \u2014 helps you create a trail. Proof that today, despite everything, you did something for yourself. And when you&#8217;re running low on motivation, you can go back and say: \u201cOh, so I <em>can<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are apps designed to track these tiny habits (like <em><a href=\"https:\/\/thedoneapp.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Done<\/a><\/em>, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/streaksapp.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Streaks<\/a><\/em>, or good old <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.notion.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Notion<\/a><\/em>), but even marking an X on a calendar works. That small act of logging it becomes a little ritual of awareness.<\/p>\n<h2>Domino effect and reward<\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s a simple idea we often forget: <em>motivation doesn\u2019t always come before action<\/em>. More often, it\u2019s action that creates motivation. You know that feeling you get after doing something you really didn\u2019t want to \u2014 like washing the dishes or going for a quick run \u2014 and then you feel better? That\u2019s not magic. That\u2019s dopamine. Your brain recognizes the effort, files it as a win, and rewards you. And next time, that action will feel a bit less daunting.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a domino effect, triggered by a seemingly irrelevant first step. A small one, but yours. One that tells your body and mind: \u201cLet\u2019s go.\u201d Not \u201cLet\u2019s go run 20k uphill in a thunderstorm,\u201d but \u201cLet\u2019s do something, <strong>anything<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Motivating yourself isn\u2019t about waiting for motivation<\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s the trap: thinking motivation is a fuel that\u2019s already in your tank. Most of the time, though, it\u2019s the opposite \u2014 you fill the tank as you go. Motivation is born from discipline and self-efficacy, not the other way around. And building it, day by day, is an act of self-care. A way of saying you matter \u2014 especially when you feel like you don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>And if today even reading this article feels like too much, remember: you can start with less. With way less. With one tiny gesture that won\u2019t fix your whole day, but might just save it. Like putting on your shoes. Or making your bed. Or writing \u201cI gave it a shot today.\u201d And you know what? <strong>That counts.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how to tackle tough days with the power of small wins.

Cio\u00e8 mentre corre.\u2028 Qua dentro \u00e8 quello che decide chi vive e chi muore e, per questo, noi lo amiamo di un amore disinteressato e spontaneo.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sandrosiviero","http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/big_ideas","https:\/\/x.com\/http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/big_ideas"],"url":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/author\/big\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/runlovers.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/motivazione.jpg?fit=1800%2C1201&quality=75&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=92810"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92810\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":92891,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92810\/revisions\/92891"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92809"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92810"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runlovers.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
