Habit Stacking

4 min read

Habit stacking means attaching a new behavior to an established one, so the old habit becomes the reminder.

Example

After I brush my teeth, I will stretch for one minute. After I start the dishwasher, I will write one gratitude line. After I buckle my seatbelt, I will pray for someone by name.

Key takeaways

  • Anchor to something you already do daily.
  • Keep the new behavior smaller than the anchor.
  • Stack in the same physical location when possible.
