Right after finishing that set of burpees (tied for an infinite number of firsts as the most important thing I did all day!), I went to the bathroom.
I saw Emerson’s Fitbit sitting where he left it last night. I picked it up and brought it to him.
Me: “Hey, buddy! Here’s your Fitbit.”
Emerson: “Thanks!”
Me: “You want to put it somewhere right where you’ll see it first thing in the morning. You know why?”
Emerson: “So I remember to put it on?”
Me: “Exactly. That’s what habit guys call a trigger or a cue or a prompt. When you SEE it, you’ll remember to do what you want to do. Make sense?”
Emerson: “YES!”
Me: “That works for EVERYTHING in our lives.”
Emerson: “Awesome!”
Me to YOU: “What habit do YOU want to install? Have you made the cue/trigger/prompt as OBVIOUS as you possibly can?!”
Remember the B = MAP wisdom from Tiny Habits.
It ALL starts with the cue/trigger/prompt.
No cue/trigger/prompt, no behavior.
