The one silly thing that has boosted my consistency this week…
One of my key foundations is having a decent, protein-rich breakfast because it has such a big ripple effect on the rest of my day. But chaotic mornings have made this more difficult to get done lately, and so I’d fallen out of routine
This one silly thing has got me back on track…
…Stocking up on some cute, fancy jars!
Just a few special containers, only for me, that have a lid (I can find) and don’t get lost in the school lunchbox production line.
It’s kind of like the boost of motivation we have for exercise when we get a new workout outfit.
Here’s why it works ->
It gives us a new and novel ‘Cue’ in our Cue-Habit-Reward System
The C-H-R system is an evidence based framework for building healthy habits
And the cue is the trigger that initiates the habit loop.
The new cue might not keep you consistent forever, but it can be enough to give you a boost when you really need it
Where could you mix up a cue for better for consistency?
