Keystone habits
One habit can make other habits easier. Those are called keystone habits, and you might already have one.
A few signs
- You work out regularlyEating well gets easier too.
- You sleep betterYou feel more focused at work.
One habit, and a few others start to fall into place behind it.
Why it's hard otherwise
We struggle to live the way we want because we can't summon the willpower to make a different decision. Eating well, taking a risk, volunteering more, doing better at work: we know these matter, and we put them off anyway.
The payoff
Find one or two keystone habits that put the rest in place, and life gets a lot easier.
