1Be specific. Not "exercise more" โ instead, "Walk for 30 minutes daily" or "Strength training 3x/week"
2Make it actionable. Each habit should be something you can check off today, not a result you're hoping for. "Dial the phone 10 times" or "Conduct 5 face to face meetings"
3Choose the right frequency. Not everything needs to be daily โ 3x/week or even weekly habits are powerful too
4Use planning slots for habits that need a "who" or "what" each week (for example I use this to hold the addresses of the people I will send handwritten cards to each week)
5Start with 4โ6 habits total. You can always rebuild later โ it's better to nail down a few than juggle too many
