Keep it Simple Stupid!. Habits should be one or two rules, not 20. If your plan looks like a User License Agreement from Microsoft, it’’s probably too long. Keep changes simple so they will be easier to adhere to.
15.簡易。建立習慣的要求只需要一兩條就可以了,而絕對不是20條,千萬不要讓計劃像Microsoft的用戶使用協議那么長。保持簡單,更容易堅持。
Remind Yourself. Put reminders of your habit around you. After spending a few years changing many habits, I’’ve learned that one of the biggest ways I’’ve failed is simply a poor memory. Forgetting to run a trial one day leads to two until your back where you started. Put up Post-It notes, affirmations or whatever you need to stay consistent.
16.提醒自己。把備忘錄放在身邊,防止自己忘記。在這幾年的習慣培養中,我發自己最大的缺點便是健忘。差記性簡直成了我失敗的代名詞,一天不堅持,兩天來補也沒用。所以搞一個備忘錄,或者其他能提醒自己的方法。
