Description

Motivation failed me again today… so I tested something better.


In Day 4 of The Consistency Experiment, we dive into cue-based habits — the “tiny trigger → automatic action” loop that turns goals into muscle memory. No hype. No perfect morning routine. No discipline Olympics.


Just real life, real triggers, and real messiness.


If you’ve ever wondered why your routines fall apart or why some habits magically stick, this episode breaks it down in simple human language — and shows you how one cue can reset your whole day.


Your 1 Thing today:

Choose one cue you already do and attach one small, obvious action to it.


✨ Description Option 3 — More educational + emotional


Most people think consistency is about discipline. It’s not.

It’s about automation — tiny cues your brain recognizes before you even think.


In this episode, I test cue-based conditioning inside my time-blocking experiment and… hit my first reset. But it works. One tiny trigger helped me shut down distractions, shift into my priority task, and actually follow through.


If you’re tired of podcasts that make you feel behind or routines that collapse the second life gets chaotic, this one’s for you.


Today’s challenge:

Find ONE daily cue and attach one tiny action to it.

That’s it. Keep it small. Keep it obvious.
