How I hacked together a habit tracker in a Field Notes
2022-06-02 00:00
I used this system for a couple of months while I was putting together a more permanent solution for it. In my system there was two kinds of habits: stuff I did or did not do and habits where I rated them 1-3.
This is how I did it. I started by writing the date: - 2022-01-01, underlined it. Then I prefixed all the rates with * and the habits I did with -. All the habits was summarized as ideally one work but no more than three. It usually looked something like this
2022-01-01:
- Diet 2
- Exercise 3
- Money 1
- Brush teeth morning
- Guitar
- Run
- Rowing
- Walk
- Yoga
It worked really well as a paper solution to it. And I will without a doubt move back to it if I want to do it on paper again.
