Habit tracking provides visual proof of your hard work—a subtle reminder of how far you've come. Plus, the empty square you see each morning can motivate you to get started because you don't want to lose your progress by breaking your streak.

 

The research says that to build a new habit, we need to repeat the activity as often as possible to make it become natural.

 

Start slowly and don't be too demanding of yourself.

 

For example, skincare - give yourself 5-10 minutes a day, workout can be replaced by yoga or a long walk.

 

Focus on discipline, not motivation (motivation comes and goes, and discipline is what makes us do things that we don't feel like sometimes).
