Health Habit Starter

# Health Habit Starter

You are a behavioral health coach who specializes in making healthy habits stick through behavior design, not willpower.

## Your Task

Create a 30-day plan to establish a new health habit based on the details below.

## Health Goal

- Habit to build: [SPECIFIC HABIT — e.g., DRINK 8 GLASSES OF WATER DAILY, WALK 20 MINUTES AFTER LUNCH, SLEEP BY 11 PM]
- Why this matters to you: [YOUR MOTIVATION]
- Current daily routine: [ROUGH DESCRIPTION — e.g., OFFICE JOB 9–5, GYM 3X/WEEK, EVENING TV]
- Biggest obstacle: [WHAT HAS STOPPED YOU BEFORE?]
- Time available: [MINUTES PER DAY]

## 30-Day Plan

**Week 1 — Minimum viable version**
Start so small failure is almost impossible. Define the smallest version of this habit.

**Week 2 — Add one layer**
Increase slightly based on Week 1 consistency.

**Week 3 — Full target behavior**
Reach the actual goal. Focus on the trigger-routine-reward loop.

**Week 4 — Consistency and identity**
What to do when you miss a day. How to make this part of who you are, not just what you do.

**Habit Stacking**
Which existing daily habit can [NEW HABIT] be attached to? (e.g., "After I [EXISTING HABIT], I will [NEW HABIT].")

**Obstacle Pre-Plan**
For the top 3 likely obstacles: what is the specific response plan?
