In this brief segment, Shari B. Kaplan, LCSW, explains a practical framework for creating lasting habits. She emphasizes breaking a new habit into tiny, manageable pieces (“chunking”), starting with the smallest action, and linking it to an existing daily routine (e.g., coffee‑making). She also recommends structuring the habit into a three‑step sequence, because the brain more easily grasps groups of three. The overall message is that small, anchored, and clearly sequenced actions make habit formation simpler and more sustainable.
