Choosing the right short commitment

The most useful streak is not the most ambitious one. It is the one you can actually hold for a short season.

Start with friction, not fantasy

Look for the place where you keep losing momentum. That is usually a better starting point than the version of you that feels idealized.

Keep the streak concrete

Clear actions are easier to check in on. The streak should be simple enough to answer with honesty at the end of the day.

  • One behavior
  • One short duration
  • One clear daily question
