How to use the habit tracker
- Add the habits you want to build, such as drinking water, exercising, reading, meditating or going to bed on time.
- Each day, tap the day's box for every habit you completed. Today is outlined in orange; future days are locked.
- Watch the 🔥 column: it shows your current streak of consecutive days, and hovering shows your best streak. Browse previous months with the arrows.
Tips for habits that stick
Research on habit formation, including a well-known study from University College London, found that new habits take anywhere from about three weeks to several months to become automatic, with an average of around 66 days. Tracking helps because it makes progress visible and turns consistency into a small daily reward. Don't break the chain: a visible streak is a strong motivator, but if you miss a day, simply start again; one missed day has little effect on long-term habit formation.
Start small (two pages, not two chapters), tie a new habit to an existing routine ("after coffee, I stretch for five minutes"), and track no more than a handful of habits at once.
