Questions people ask
What habit should I start first?
One small habit from the part of life you'd most like to feel better about. Small enough that you can do it on a tired day.
How many habits should I start at once?
One, then add the next when the first feels easy. Starting several at once is what makes week two so hard.
What's the easiest habit to start?
One that takes two minutes and fits a moment you already have, like a glass of water with breakfast or making your bed when you get up.
