by Wade Meredith on May 1st, 2007

One of my favorite bloggers, Rikard Linde at habiq.com recently posted his top ten list of properties of habits that last.

Forming new habits is a hard thing to do for us homo sapien-types. Rikard has tons of good ideas to help pave your way, and these are the cream of the crop; ripe for a bookmark…

  1. Low barriers to repetition
  2. Focused on regular action
  3. Performed fast
  4. Physical action
  5. One action, not two
  6. Constrained action
  7. Easy to delve into
  8. Attached to an action that you already perform regularly

  10. Associated with strong, positive feelings
