Habit tracker
Consistency is a number, not a feeling.
Habits fail quietly. You skip one day, then another, and two weeks later you are sure you have been doing it all along. Ticking a box every day makes the truth visible, and the streak becomes something you would rather not break.

Track your habits
Add a habit with a weekly target, then tick it off each day. Streaks and weekly progress update as you go.
Add a habit
Keep it specific enough that you can tick it off without arguing with yourself.

Four steps to a habit that lasts
Most habits fail on design, not on willpower.
Make it concrete
"Plan tomorrow at 17:30" is trackable. "Be more organised" is not. If you cannot tick it off unambiguously, rewrite it.
Set an honest target
Five days a week beats seven, because it survives a bad day. A target you miss every week stops meaning anything.
Tick it the same day
Marking it off is part of the habit, not admin afterwards. Reconstructing a week from memory produces a flattering, useless record.
Never miss twice
One missed day is noise. Two in a row is how habits actually end. The streak counter exists to make the second miss uncomfortable.
Why tracking changes behaviour
The act of measuring is part of the mechanism.
Memory is not evidence
People consistently overestimate how often they did a thing. A checklist removes the argument entirely.
Streaks create momentum
A visible run of days becomes something you do not want to lose. That reluctance is doing real work on the days motivation is missing.
Gaps show the pattern
Habits usually fail on the same days for the same reasons. Seeing the gaps tells you what to change about the plan, not about yourself.
Weekly targets allow real life
A five-of-seven target keeps the habit intact through a bad day, which is exactly when all-or-nothing tracking collapses.
Frequently asked questions
How many habits should I track at once?
Three to five. Beyond that the daily check-off becomes a chore in itself and the whole thing gets abandoned. Add a new habit only once an existing one no longer needs the reminder.
How long until a habit sticks?
Research puts the range at roughly two to eight months depending on the habit and the person. The popular twenty-one day figure has no evidence behind it. Simple habits automate faster than complex ones.
Can I mark a habit for a past day?
Yes. Change the date at the top of the overview and the check-offs apply to that day. It is there for genuine catch-up, not for retroactively repairing a streak.
