Firstly, you must have the self-awareness to understand and realize when you are performing a bad habit. You cannot begin to fix something that you do not know is broken. This self-awareness is incredibly powerful if you can develop it to the point where you catch your thought process before you perform a bad habit. Some examples of bad habits are staying in bed after you wake up for a prolonged period for no good reason, binging a show when you have urgent and important tasks to tend to, putting off your responsibilities and chores because you are not in the mood to do them. You get the idea. Unpleasant habits typically revolve around gratification— placating your desire immediately.


Secondly, you must come to understand the reasoning behind your unpleasant habits. Tackle one at a time and start with the simplest one. Let us say you do not drink enough water in the day. This one is incredibly common and the easiest to fix and has enormous benefits. After all, water composes the majority of our body. One reason you might not be drinking enough water is forgetfulness. You do not remember to drink water throughout the day. This forgetfulness is incredibly easy to remedy. Open your phone, go to your calendar, and create an event titled “Drink water, you minx.” Now, go into the options and do two things. Set the event to occur every single day and set it to become an all-day event. Now, whenever you open your phone, you should see “Drink water, you minx”. Nice. Whenever you see that, do your best to sip water. Try and think of other positive habits that you want to do and pop them into your calendar. (For more on scheduling see "The Schedule")
