Notice what you already do. Many useful habits are already in place — they just need a gentle nudge.
Borrow from people you already trust. Ask a friend what works for them. Steal the small ideas.
Stringing them together
Make it social if you can. Habits that include people tend to stick longer than solo ones.
- A version for the drive home
- A short morning version you can do in five minutes
- A no-decision version
Above all, keep it kind. The friendly version of any habit tends to last the longest.
Small steps, real progress. Quiet, consistent practice tends to do more than dramatic resets.
