DOMINO EFFECT: LET’S GO TO THE MOON…
(Video from Stephen Morris)
Making major changes in your life, like changing your career, moving house, stopping drinking, stopping smoking, etc. can seem like huge impossible challenges. But the trick is not to look at it as a major change – in fact it’s quite the opposite!
Walking Back To Happiness: The Secret To Alcohol-Free Living & Well-Being shows you how I changed my story and found happiness and well-being and how you can to. Packed with over 70 exercises or steps you can take to improve your well-being and happiness, it’s a blueprint of how to live your best life!
Do not look up at Everest and fear its height. Instead look down on it as a series of small daily steps. Each step making you stronger and having more power and confidence to keep moving forward and take the next step.’
Set your big goal or your ‘moon shot’ as your target – for me it is to be the best possible version of myself. Once you have your ‘moon shot’, come back down to earth and start the journey to achieve it by using the Domino Effect.
The Domino Effect basically works by doing small things consistently every day that put you on a trajectory to your moon.
THE SCIENCE
If you take a standard domino and push it into another domino it will knock it over. But here’s the interesting bit, a domino can knock over another domino, which is up to 50% larger in size. This is called the geometric force in physics. So if the first domino is four centimetres high then it can knock over a domino six centimetres high and that domino can knock over a domino nine centimetres high, and so on. The effect shows that behaviours effect each other.
If you start with a standard five-centimetre domino, then by the 17th domino you would have knocked over a domino as high as the Tower of Pisa; by the 23rd a domino as high the Eiffel Tower; by the 31st a domino as high as Everest and by the 57th a domino that would touch the moon.
You can achieve so much more than you ever thought possible by just knocking over the first domino and building momentum towards your goals and dreams. As each tiny domino falls, you start believing new things about yourself and building identity-based habits.
The Domino Effect is about progress, not results. Simply maintain the momentum. Let the process repeat as one domino automatically knocks down the next.
In the words of Stanford professor Fogg, ‘You can never change just one behaviour. Our behaviours are interconnected, so when you change one behaviour, other behaviours also shift.’
MY DOMINOS
All my goals follow the Domino Effect and this is part of the secret of how to successfully achieve most things in life!
My first domino was stopping drinking alcohol. This led to me naturally waking up early, the second domino, as I was no longer tired from the effects of alcohol and felt healthier and had more drive. Waking and getting up at 0530 led to the third domino, which was doing something healthy that improved my fitness and this became going for a long dawn walk every morning. This led to the fourth domino, which is to meditate daily for 15 minutes on the walk, and so on. Other dominos on my journey have included, writing and publishing a best-selling ‘alcohol quit lit’ book, studying and becoming a certified life coach and NLP Practitioner, building a new publishing and coaching business, walking 9KM every day for 24 months totalling over 8,000 kms before breakfast, learning to play the piano and so on… Now, over three years since my first domino fell, lots of dominos have fallen and even bigger ones are starting to topple.
The momentum keeping my rocket and me on the trajectory to ‘my moon’ was fuelled by my daily, or journey, goals, which are:
Journey Goal 1 – every day, do not drink alcohol today
Journey Goal 2 – every day, get up early and go for a long walk
Journey Goal 3 – every day, meditate for 15 minutes
In short, I am achieving major milestones by taking small steps consistently. It’s easier to set goals for today if you have goals for the week. It’s easier to set goals for the week if you have goals for the month. It’s easier to set goals for the month if you have goals for the year. It’s easier to set a one-year goal if you have a five-year goal, and so on.
