I think the thing about establishing a healthy habit is so many people sabotage themselves by going into preparation overload. When you’re first starting out your goal should be reducing friction as much as possible, not adding to it. Like if you want to work out more your first order of business shouldn’t be going to the store and buying fancy workout equipment fits etc. That just adds friction. You want it to be as simple as possible because establishing a new habit is already uncomfortable. We should be reducing friction from habits we want to establish and adding friction to things we want to drop, like our phone use. This is literally how they design phones btw. They make it incredibly easy to check your phone by reducing friction with how they design their apps. So to combat that we need to introduce friction back into those harmful habits

One of the best things about being a writer is thinking of something small you can add to your work that’s just. Devastating. Like you’re sitting there going. Oh. That would be diabolical. People would get really riled up about that. Exquisite. Let’s do it.
