Beware the streak
Don’t let it hamstring you
How do you feel about habit streaks?
Whether it’s marking an X on the calendar, or checking off the Reminder, there’s value in building a regular habit.
But sometimes, that streak can become a trap.
I once had a streak for almost a year.
Then I broke it...
I fell off the habit for a bit. It took a while, but then I worked back into it.
And for almost a year, I was consistently reminded that I was still behind my last streak.
What a struggle!
Beware the streak. Use it if it works for you. Or use something else.
