Habit Journal

[Sandy6]

This will be my journal for the habits I’m building. I have read a lot of blog posts about habits, watched videos, read articles, eBooks, bought some books on the topic, discussed habits with people—started this more than 10 years ago.

I’ll be honest—I have failed many times and struggled with a lack of understanding and skepticism about habits. I also never prioritized habit-building and often got caught up in theories or other distractions.

Last year, I built nine habits, but I got off track. This month, I will restart my three tiny habits. I’m not trying to start this journal perfectly, but I hope to update it consistently.

Currently, I’m taking online courses and spending time a few times a week researching, connecting with people, contemplating, and journaling.

I have a private journal, but this will be my public one. I’ll write down what I learn, take notes, and maybe use it for check-ins. But the most important thing is to keep updating this journal for consistency and accountability.

My three habits that I restarted are drinking a glass of water after waking up, brushing my teeth before bed, and sleeping 15 minutes earlier.

Yesterday, I also did check-ins with an accountability online group and wrote a post with some reflections.

Today, I did some thinking about habits and read/watched content about them.

I had a focus session with a cup of tea in the evening after taking a bath, and last night I got enough sleep, so I feel better and more energized today.

Today, I am journaling in Evernote. I am comfortable using my PC built for journaling since my laptop has little RAM.

My habits are doing good, I do them after each trigger.

Also have some reflections, like a lot of people buying habit books, whether they actually implement them or not. Or just a few percent of readers who actually get results from them.

I notice myself going to distractions like watching soccer news. And in the evening, I have a focus session while hearing rain, while people around the neighborhood are praying at the mosque.

I'm doing well with my three habits. When I slip for a day, I get back on track the next day.

I spent a few hours reading blogs today. I reviewed the most important tasks for the day and looked for something that could support my daily habits.

I didn't get enough sleep last night, so I plan to sleep more tonight.
