Part 2 of implement habit tracker template with a daily review for discipline' said

'Dear GTD fourm - maybe its worth that i imp first write some more background details about this post after litearlly sending @John Forrister a whole email about it

and then delete the original post

The first email unimportant to M was

"
I could re write this post, then delete it

just put it in to better writing

explain literally

the picture is actually a type of print out from Atomic habits book resource
was recommended by James Clear

a habit of using a habit tracker


on one of my ideas - is that things such as 'daily reviews ' which are big in the GTD community could - actually be done well with a type 'of habit tracker'

or also links ' to do a weekly review properly, using a habit trac- paper binder etic


or i feel i never got in habit io of doing a 'daily review for productivity consistently
ever which creates productivity problems


what would it be like if I did daily review 100% each day

or ' also could read over the original Facebook writing one more time, see if there is


send now @ 20 past? "

then 2nd was

"
I see it was in e-mail

I wrote this post

had idea ' I could forward it to John F in the background

' or write - is it worth think how I can further improve the writing myself before posting
"

Then 3rd key details were

"
' what is a daily review ?

from GTD teens

its - looking at your calendar

then your next action list e.g. from your main list manager programme

and all relevant checklist/s for example

I could add that in"


... Then 2 more emails
one more example such as

"
' i wasn't able see your reply from 2 days ago

, but only now manually looking

what I wrote here is key "


or is there something better I can do - for type record paper physical materials

to digitalise tem - review

the attempts at calendar and also to do - partial fail you understand

broadcast"

54 - NINE

so to summarize over again - reason in nutshell why was trying to share this
was - in the circumstance when I was writing this post - was because I had my physical functioning affected a creatine amount 9- like 'worse brain fog ' in that moment

wanted to re write

NINE

- because
if i were to implement GTD , reviews etc - it should in theory make me more productive

NINE POOH
ERM

ERM

COS otherwise - what im on the lean/habit of doing - is pass ing time through checking notifications

I want to make it believe to myself - something manually committing to a set physical process will have benefits

I FEEL LIKE I CAN'T EXPRESS MYSELF480736282_1717695905792358_4189992046139777588_n (1).jpg

that I wrote somewhere minimum for calendar- is just looking on the calendar on week view once a day

Or I could add a picture of all the relevant checklists- which will be striving to complete, wrote on tracker template

im confused

'im not sure i've mentioned the ideas, issues im having


or


to this @gtdstudente - other things i would have mentioned was/are - that

i was attracted to atomic habits - because is sort of a thing advertised - that successful people ' who have lots of good habits - also have good well beings' moods 1, and that's how (or where) myself tim feel like struggle with in my pshytric (typo) symptoms, that's - what wrote on back of sheet (which is JPEG) in this thread - that James trying say people who get results will - stick to the training/practice/habit overall - and that is what causes and improvement in mood/wellbeing overall is this right?

maybe @Mrs-Polifax

Hi, Tim.

I can't comment on James Clear's book "Atomic Habits," since I haven't read it. It does makes sense to me that our habits influence our mood and happiness.

The "Tiny Habits" book explains clearly with diagrams how to design the habits we want. B.J. Fogg says that tiny habits change everything. He says that the main thing that creates our habits is celebrating and feeling good after we do an action. We like feeling good, so we want to repeat that action.

Warmly,

'

had further ideas:

right now - feels like it doesn't make much sense
'to do the habit quantification - I put above (in post reply) for my calendar - because it doesn't make sense

but instead of -

"focus on dealing with the physical lists in my room
"where I was writing a daily review - is dealing with all 'lists' etc

7

or what would good quantification system be
how much time

l

D W Y A D

would a starting point - be spend 5 - 10 mins a day on the physical lists in my room , after my daily reading (habit stacking ) '

' what do you think @Mrs-Polifax " from previous day

Someone else shared with me Tiny habits.

I want to personally - finishing going through or studying entirely James Clear resources first, before moving on to something else.

Yes that is - what James also wrote in his book , that main thing to enforce habits - is making it feel good per say - use wording such as making the habit attractive "

Okay. That's fine. I'm glad to hear that you know what you want.
In that case I cannot advise you because I have not read his book.

However, I have a few suggestions:

What action do you want to complete regarding your lists?
"I will spend 5 to 10 minutes on the physical lists in my room."

I would like you to be more specific about what you plan to do.
"I will spend 5 to 10 minutes at my desk doing a Mind Sweep."
OR
"I will spend 5 to 10 minutes at my desk doing a daily review of my
Calendar, Next Actions, Agendas, Waiting Fors, and Projects Lists."

Are either of these what you mean? If not, change this to what you mean.

The reason I believe this needs to be more specific is that you need to know
exactly what action you plan to take, so you know for sure you have done it.

How will you know when you are done and need to stop doing this action?
"When I start this action, I will set the timer on my computer for 10 minutes.
When the timer rings, I will stop doing this action and I will turn off the timer."

Does this work for you? If not, then change this to what does work for you.

I think habit creation in this case would work using this formula:
AFTER I complete my daily reading and set the timer for ten minutes,
THEN I will spend 5 to 10 minutes at my desk doing (whatever you decided above), and
LAST I will stop doing this action and turn off the timer and do (your chosen celebration) to feel good.

That is how I believe it would work using the Tiny Habits method.
However, it is a bit complicated because of the need for a timer.
That might mean that this is a routine rather than a habit,
But for now it should be okay and give you the general idea.

I don't know how it would work using the James Clear method.

Best wishes with this.

Bye for now,

Emily

OK
'are you telling me to add tiny habits - onto by calendar?
However, I have a few suggestions:

What action do you want to complete regarding your lists?
"I will spend 5 to 10 minutes on the physical lists in my room."
'The action by my previous statement - you quoted here?
was just to progress them, get through them over time - do you understand
I would like you to be more specific about what you plan to do.
"I will spend 5 to 10 minutes at my desk doing a Mind Sweep."
OR
"I will spend 5 to 10 minutes at my desk doing a daily review of my
Calendar, Next Actions, Agendas, Waiting Fors, and Projects Lists."
OK but things such as WF or A or calendar - I personally feel as if I have limited amounts for (not much data input)
Are either of these what you mean? If not, change this to what you mean.
right?
The reason I believe this needs to be more specific is that you need to know
exactly what action you plan to take, so you know for sure you have done it.
to know for sure I did it?
How will you know when you are done and need to stop doing this action?
"When I start this action, I will set the timer on my computer for 10 minutes.
When the timer rings, I will stop doing this action and I will turn off the timer."

change what works for me?

turn off?
+celebration? like what?
That is how I believe it would work using the Tiny Habits method.
right you've done tiny habits method?
However, it is a bit complicated because of the need for a timer.
how does setting a time make things complicated
That might mean that this is a routine rather than a habit,
But for now it should be okay and give you the general idea.
A routine using a timer?
I don't know how it would work using the James Clear method.
' I think its similar "
Best wishes with this.
