I used to forget to take my vitamin. Now I never forget.
I had been trying to institute the vitamin habit cold turkey…to go from never thinking about vitamins to always remembering to take it sometime in the morning. And it barely worked. No consistency.
And then my vitamin breakthrough.
I was already in the habit of topping off my my water bottle before leaving the house. So I decided to pair the instinct to fill the water bottle with the need to take the vitamin…with the real key being to take the vitamin BEFORE the existing habit of filling the water bottle.
If you want to do something new, pair it with something you already do.
