Techniques for Installing Good Habits - Deepstash

Techniques for Installing Good Habits

  • Set yourself up to succeed. Any new habit has to work inside your life and lifestyle.
  • Think addition, not subtraction. Think what you can choose to “add in” so you can enrich your life experience.
  • Go for a Public Display of Accountability. Once you put it out there on the public record, you knows that you'll be held responsible for any action.
  • Find a success buddy .There are few things as powerful as two people locked arm and arm marching toward the same goal.
  • Competition & camaraderie. There’s nothing like a friendly contest to whet your competitive spirit and immerse yourself in a new habit with a bang.
  • Celebrate. There should be a time to celebrate, to enjoy some of the fruits of your victories along the way.

“Stack” Your Habits

The best way to turn a behavior into a habit is to use a trigger to remind yourself to do it. Your trigger needs to be something you always do anyway. Anything you already do without thinking works.

As you build new habits, you create new triggers for yourself and stack a new habit onto it....
