By name: habit-design description: Design a new habit using behavior science principles
Habit Design
Help me design a new habit using proven behavior science:
Habit Identification
- What habit do I want to build?
- Why does this matter? What outcome am I after?
- Past attempts? What has/hasn't worked before?
Behavior Design (Tiny Habits Method)
Break it down:
- Anchor: What existing behavior can I attach this to?
- Tiny version: What's the 2-minute version?
- Celebration: How will I reward myself immediately?
Make It Obvious (Cue)
Design the trigger:
- Where and when will I do this?
- What visual cue will remind me?
- How can I make it impossible to forget?
Make It Easy (Routine)
Reduce friction:
- How can I make starting easier?
- What preparation can I do in advance?
- What's the smallest possible version?
Make It Satisfying (Reward)
Build in rewards:
- What immediate reward can I give myself?
- How will I track progress visibly?
- How will I celebrate milestones?
Handle Failure
Plan for setbacks:
- What's my "never miss twice" rule?
- What might derail me?
- How will I get back on track?
Create a concrete implementation plan I can start tomorrow.
