Build a cue and a small routine · S3.1

Notice what follows a habit

You want to understand what makes an everyday action easy to repeat.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

1. Choose one habit and describe a recent example: what happened just before it, what you did, and what followed.
2. Notice any immediate payoff or difficulty, such as convenience, enjoyment, relief from a task, or extra effort.
3. Choose one practical change to the cue or outcome that could support an action you want to repeat.

An example

Putting my book beside the chair means I can read without finding it first.

Reflect

What seems to influence repetition, and what are you still guessing?

Next time

Observe another example before deciding the pattern is consistent.
