    @makattack220 Great question. I use a habit tracker in one of my other groups. For me a habit stays on the list if I'm finding the behavior is not yet automatic (meaning without the requirement to push myself to check the box i might not do it). So I had a 64 oz water goal as well - but now I basically do that automatically so I work on something else. I still track water but consuming at least that quantity feels automatic. If I wanted to specifically increase that target I'd have to put it back on.

    It's also good in my opinion not to overwhelm yourself and to ensure your base habits are truly solid before piling on more. I think it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Focus on less but do it well, and eventually those things become automatic!

    thank you @ashleycarole86 😁👍 This helps tremendously and makes my answer about swapping/adding easy for me: I need more time for these to feel automatic. And, I am trying to do this in a way specifically not to overwhelm myself so that these are permanent changes. Great insight - thank you, thank you!

    Thank you ladies for the insightful discussion! I have been working on a list of habits that I want to incorporate into my daily life (half of the list is just ensuring I take my vitamins, meds & supplements so it's not as bad as it sounds). But this month I decided to prioritize 2. Your sound advice @ashleycarole86 helped to reinforce that this is what I need to focus on in order to do it well.

    Okay - again, we need the 😂 option for post reactions.

    Come visit any time Ashley and we’ll take you walking through Wascana Park/Centre. It is an amazing 930 hectare urban park system and we are so lucky to have the diversity it brings to life here. If only I could convince myself to love winter more. Working on it!
