for the ones who can't remember to start

Goal

Bolt one study micro-action onto an existing daily habit so it runs without a reminder.

Source principle

Anchor a new study habit to a current habit you already do automatically, so the existing action becomes the trigger. : from Atomic Habits by James Clear.

The plan

  1. ๐Ÿ“‹
    0:00-0:03
    List 5 daily anchors you already do (coffee, brushing teeth, lunch).
  2. ๐Ÿ”Ž
    0:03-0:06
    Pick the most reliable one: the one you never skip.
  3. โœ๏ธ
    0:06-0:09
    Write: 'After [anchor], I will [one 2-min study action]'.
  4. ๐Ÿ—’๏ธ
    0:09-0:11
    Stick the sentence on the anchor spot (coffee machine, mirror).
  5. โ–ถ๏ธ
    0:11-0:13
    Run it once today: full 2 min, no more.
  6. ๐Ÿ““
    0:13-0:14
    Log: 'stack fired'. Chain day 1.
  7. ๐Ÿ”—
    0:14-0:16
    Mark an X on a paper calendar.
  8. ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ
    0:16-0:20
    Plan tomorrow's same stack: same anchor, same action.

Reward

Mark the chain on a paper calendar. Don't break it
