How do you know if you’re consistent with a healthy habit? If a habit is something you do every day, then there’s a good chance you know you’re being consistent. But if it’s a new habit, or something that takes more thought, it can be hard to tell. That’s where habit tracking can come in.
Tracking a few healthy habits gives you a realistic picture of how often these things are happening.
You can really check in on whether you’re being as consistent as you hope you are.
Want to have a better chance of being consistent with your habits? Frame them positively. Instead of tracking how many times you didn’t have dessert, track how many times you did have vegetables at dinner or drank enough water.
Focus on habits where you’re adding things to your life, instead of cutting them out.
So how should we track our habits? Whichever way is most convenient is the best option for you. Maybe you have an app or spreadsheet. Maybe you put tick marks on a calendar or in your planner. Just make sure it’s something you’ll see so you remember to mark it down.
Tracking our habits often makes us more aware of them and more likely to actually do them on a regular basis. If you’re looking for some consistency in your health and fitness habits, this could be for you!
