Excellence Habit Builder: Your Habit Journey Planner

This toolkit helps you understand how your environment (Input) shapes your actions (Process), leading to desired or undesired results (Output). It's about designing your journey to make good habits effortless and challenging bad habits. Get ready to build habits that lead to excellence!

Part 1: Identity-Based Habits

Instead of focusing on *what* you want to achieve (outcomes), focus on *who* you want to become (identity).
Your habits are a reflection of your identity.

Part 2: Building Good Habits (START) - The C.A.V.E. Approach

Choose one new habit you want to start. Then, apply the C.A.V.E. approach to make it stick.

My New Good Habit:

1. C.A.V.E. - C: Make It CUE / ACCESSIBLE / VISIBLE / EASY (Input)

How can you make the cue for this habit visible, accessible, and easy to notice in your environment?

2. C.A.V.E. - A: Make It ATTRACTIVE (Process)

How can you make this habit desirable? (Use Temptation Bundling: Pair it with something you *want* to do.)

3. C.A.V.E. - V: Make It VERY EASY (Process)

How can you reduce friction and make it effortless? (Use the 2-Minute Rule: Start with a very small version.)

4. C.A.V.E. - E: Make It ENJOYABLE (Output)

How can you make the reward immediate and satisfying? (Give yourself a reward and use a habit tracker.)

Part 3: Breaking Bad Habits (STOP) - The I.C.E. Approach

Choose one bad habit you want to stop. Then, apply the I.C.E. approach to make it difficult.

My Bad Habit to Break:

1. I.C.E. - I: Make It INVISIBLE (Input)

How can you remove or hide the cue for this habit?

2. I.C.E. - C: Make It COMPELLING CONSEQUENCES (Process)

How can you make this habit undesirable or associate it with something negative?

3. I.C.E. - E: EXERCISE NEW PROCESSING (Process)

How can you add friction or make this habit harder to do?

4. OUTPUT: Make It UNSATISFYING (Reward)

How can you make the consequences immediate and unsatisfying?

Part 4: Track Your Progress & Plan Your Week - The T.A.P. Approach

Visualizing your progress is incredibly motivating. Use a simple habit tracker for your new good habit.

How will you Track your new good habit? (e.g., "X" on a calendar, a simple tally, a digital app)

Reflect on your progress weekly. What's working? What's challenging?
