21 Days to a New Habit

Some literature say that it takes 21 days to form a new habit. At the start of this year I wanted to do a few things more consistently (blog, journal, scrap, read my Bible and pray, exercise, be more social, and read books). So how does one DO these things on a consistent basis? Well, I figured I needed to track my daily activities based on whether I've done these things or not. If I do these things 3-4 times per week, then it is considered consistent. So I put together a weekly activity tracker and printed it out. It looks something like this:

Then I put my activities that I want to track on the left side, and the dates on top. Then I can keep track to my hearts content each week. So far so good! I think I've officially developed new healthier habits for my physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual needs. Then, I did this layout to remind myself of all the things I love right now. They're not exactly all THINGS, more like experiences, activities, etc.
