    Eating breakfast every day.

    My eating habits were so dysfunctional that I can only describe them as a disorder. It affected all areas of my life, from sleep to energy to mood. I didn’t know the core problem was my eating habits, all of my problems just meshed together.

    One evening I decided that my only goal for the next day was to eat breakfast. Not lunch, not dinner, not go to the gym, not get any work done or change the world. Just eat something when I wake up. I made a beautiful baguette stuffed with everything delicious and placed it by the bed before going to sleep, so I didn’t even have to get out of bed to achieve my goal.

    Once I got my breakfast, I automatically got lunch and dinner too. Lots of other habits naturally fell into place when I wasn’t starving.

    That as 15 years ago. I’ve not missed breakfast since. I’ve still got tons of issues. But this one, tiny thing, made a massive positive difference.
