Setting up good habits

There are more and more things that I acknowledge can be done in a single shot. I used to do it such as studying last minute or writing paper last minute where I totally focused on that one thing for a certain period of time. But there are more and more things that practice is needed. Or even for understanding, I now need to break down into bite-size lectures or readings instead of wanting to understand them in a part of the day.

Then I realize that breaking down into several parts means I need to set up good habits. Unlike last minute that depends on momentum, bite-sizes learning or work require a habit. Perhaps it is not necessary. But at least for me I tend to forget about them or delay them until I found no more time to do it at night.

For example, this writing. If I delay until I was about to sleep, I won’t do it. Similarly, for duolingo, one of the best time is during lunch queue, or on the way back at mrt. If I miss during those period, I tend not to do it. 

So I need to be creative to set up good habits. Things that are not ambitious but small parts. Just like this, let’s stop here as I want the writing to be less than 10 mins.
