Goal

Make a study session feel like leisure by bundling it with a favorite podcast, playlist, or snack.

Source principle

Make the study habit attractive by bundling it with something you already crave, so the want pulls you into the should. : from Atomic Habits by James Clear.

The plan

  1. ✅
    0:00-0:05
    Pick the 'should': one 90-min study task you've been avoiding.
  2. 🎵
    0:05-0:10
    Pick the 'want': favorite podcast, playlist, or snack.
  3. 🔒
    0:10-0:12
    Gate the want behind the should: audio only when textbook is open.
  4. 📖
    0:12-0:15
    Open the textbook, press play.
  5. 🧠
    0:15-0:55
    Deep work block 1. Pause audio if you stop studying.
  6. 💧
    0:55-1:05
    Break: water, walk, audio stays on only if you're moving.
  7. 📖
    1:05-1:25
    Deep work block 2: same rule.
  8. 📓
    1:25-1:30
    Log: 'bundled 90 min, task done'.
  9. 🗓️
    1:30-1:35
    Schedule next week's bundle in the calendar now.
