Habit Formation
Habits make behaviors automatic, so that you have to spend little or no effort on them.
Building habits is a process of long-term consistency. Stack the deck in your favor so that adherence to your habit is as frictionless as possible. Keeping up momentum is vital.
For best results:
- Lower the bar for completion as much as possible
- Modify your environment to support you (e.g. set out the gym bag)
- Avoid building many new habits at once, or you risk them all
- Figure out how to tie your habit into the rest of your routine
