Invest in Simple Habits

The key to forming good habits is to make them part of your 'rituals.' I have a morning ritual, afternoon ritual, and Sunday ritual. It's one way to bundle good habits into regular times that you set aside to prepare yourself for the life you want. Rituals help you form habits.

One investment you can make to accelerate your path to your dream life is investing in simple habits.

A simple habit is a habit that is extremely easy to achieve. Some of us already have some simple habits such as brushing our teeth every morning.

You can create simple habits for any time of the day.

Why are these simple habits valuable?

They are valuable because they are easy to create, and once created you can anchor other habits to them. This is called habit stacking, a concept I learned from the book of the same name.

If you want to journal every morning, create the habit of brushing your teeth and then journaling. Since getting started is usually the majority of the work, the fact that you have an existing habit means you are already started.

The more of these simple habits you create throughout your day, the more times you have to anchor other habits.
