Mine is to not engage in the class WhatsApp! (Apart from bare minimum, if I'm being directly askia question etc)

Get ignored anyway,so won't make much difference to others 😂

Stuck to it so far, haven't replied to anything not asked anything!

I haven’t broken it yet, I just haven’t started.

Mine is to read a chapter of my current book every day as not too overwhelming and have done it so far!

Broke mine 2 minutes after making it. "When I get into bed I will pick up a book instead of my phone."
Reality: "I'll just check my emails" then 40 minutes later I put the light out, not having picked up a book.

Dry January. Made it to a week, hurrah!! Already thinking about giving myself some wildcards so I can have a glass of wine tomoz though 🍷

I’m doing well so far! Reading for 15 mins every night before bed and lights out by 11. I was a shocker for doom scrolling in bed until the wee hours so this is big if I can keep it going.

Im using the Habit app to track my streak / nag me!

Ideally, once I’ve got these habits ‘stacked’ I’m going to add more nighttime routine type ones.

No snacks between meals. Not even a biscuit with a cup of tea. Sticking with it so far, but the weekend may be a tougher challenge when I'm cooking and sipping wine.
