a small goal requiring you to only complete two or three habits. The
important thing is to set a goal that can be achieved even when you
have an off day.
10. Expect the occasional challenge or setback. In fact, it’s better if you
assume they will happen and then make a plan for how you’ll
handle them. If you get stuck, review the six challenges that we just
covered and implement the advice for your unique obstacle.
11. Schedule the frequency of a stack by committing to this routine as a
daily, weekly, or monthly series of actions. My suggestion is to get
started with a simple daily routine, but when you want to build
more habits, add a weekly or monthly task.
12. Scale-up your stack by adding more habits and increasing the total
time of the routine. But be very cautious with this step. If you notice
that it’s getting progressively harder to get started (i.e., you’re
procrastinating), then either reduce the number of habits or ask
yourself
why you want to skip a day. The more you understand
about your lack of motivation, the easier it will be to overcome it.
13. Build one routine at a time, because each new routine increases the
difficulty of sticking with your current habits. Only when
you feel
that a stack has become a permanent behavior should you consider
adding a new routine.
That’s it—thirteen steps to build a stack that will help you overcome the
daily challenge of procrastination. I won’t lie and say it’ll be easy 100% of
the time, but if you stick to these steps, then you can overcome any
challenge that comes your way.
