Choose One Practice Before Adding Another
Whenyou feel tempted to add another habit
Name the practice you are currently learning to repeat. Put the new idea on a later list until you review your current practice.
Why it works
Clear distinguishes a decision from the responsibility it creates. Each new practice needs room on an ordinary day.
Start tiny
Write the current practice’s name.
What you’ll notice
Your day has one clear practice to learn first.
When it slips
The later list becomes a promise pile? Treat it as options you may discard.
