Repositories are awesome, and we should have more of them.
I recently completed BJ Fogg's Tiny Habits, and it's a pretty lightweight way to install new habits (recommended). However, I realized I could use a better repository of useful habits.
So, please use this thread to suggest habits that you've found useful. Bonus points for evidence/anecdata of usefulness.
Obviously, 1 habit per comment makes upvotes a clearer signal of collective approval.
Well, we can say N >= 2 with confidence. I carry items in assigned pockets of my trousers/pants and jacket too, and it's such a habit that my clothes don't feel 'right' on me if I'm missing something.
My backpack carries way more than it's reasonable to carry in clothing, even if you're wearing clothes specially-designed to carry stuff.
And I thought it'd be useful as a tip for people who don't like to wear men's clothing or who want to keep less stuff in pockets for style reasons. You can't fit as much as I carry in my pockets in high-fashion jeans.
