Habit Stacking Builder

Link new habits to existing ones using the proven habit stacking technique. The formula is simple: After I [EXISTING HABIT], I will [NEW HABIT].

How Habit Stacking Works:

  • Identify a current habit you do consistently (the anchor)
  • Choose a new habit you want to build (make it tiny - 2 minutes or less)
  • Stack them using: "After I [existing], I will [new]"
  • Your existing habit becomes the cue for your new one

Common Existing Habits:

morning

evening

daily

Example Habit Stacks:

Morning
After I Pour my morning coffee, I will I will meditate for 2 minutes.
Evening
After I Sit down for dinner, I will I will say one thing I'm grateful for.
Daily
After I Close my laptop at end of work, I will I will do 10 pushups.
