Focusing on making small, incremental
changes over a sustained period of time is the key to creating any new habit.

The point is to make small, everyday
changes that you can
sustain over a long
period of time.
Weak muscle contractions,
sustained over a long
period of time — as in during a bike ride —
change proteins, mainly ones involved in metabolism.
Over the
period 1984 — 2006 the global
changes are 0.28 °C in SST and − 9.1 W m − 2 in Q, giving an effective air — sea coupling coefficient of − 32 W m − 2 °C − 1... [D] iminished ocean cooling due to vertical ocean processes played an important role in
sustaining the observed positive trend in global SST from 1984 through 2006, despite the decrease in global surface heat flux.
Climate scientists would say in response that
changes in ocean circulation can't
sustain a net
change in global temperature
over such a long
period (ENSO for example might raise or lower global temperature on a timescale of one or two years, but
over decades there would be roughly zero net
change).
Ultimately, while a well - designed course can achieve needed behavior
change, for the
change to
sustain over a
period of time, what we need is habit
change.
This natural influence should oscillate but not trend very fast, since a fast trend could not have been
sustained over the past several millennia but we have no reason to expect a dramatic
change over that
period.

Over sustained periods of time it is these same weather systems that lead, ultimately, to broader
changes in our climate.
``... the most profound contemporary
changes to the ice sheets and their contribution to sea level rise can be attributed to ocean thermal forcing that is
sustained over decades and may already have triggered a
period of unstable glacier retreat.»
Though you may not have held formal accountability
over hiring, performance evaluations, and / or merit increases, maybe you have led large - scale onshore / offshore teams and
sustained high engagement levels and generated a superior ROI during
periods of significant
change and restructuring.
But it is the rare sociopath who can
sustain such
changes over a
period of months or years.
I have found this method of working with couples to be far more effective in achieving immediate,
sustained, positive
change than the more common practice of meeting for a one - hour therapy session, on a weekly basis,
over a long
period of time.
