2 – Make new routines obvious.
You can create many more good habits if you make them evident. You just need to take your time to do that.
Let’s say you want to exercise more, for example. Who doesn’t want to exercise more, right?
You could use your motivation to pick up your workout mat and place it somewhere, and you will probably fail. Or, you can put it beside your bed and keep it there.
- Find a hook for any healthy routine you want to build.
- Place the hook in your environment somewhere you can see it every day.
- Notice if there are any connections between routines. If there are, one routine can become the hook for the second.
