In this video, I’m talking about habit tracking—why it’s often sold as the “best” way to build consistency, and why I personally can’t stand it. Yes, tracking can help with accountability, motivation, and making progress visible. But for a lot of busy people (and honestly, for me), it also turns into this tedious little admin task that makes the habit feel heavier than it needs to be. If you’ve ever built a cute tracker and then abandoned it two weeks later, you’re exactly who I made this for. I break down when habit tracking actually works, why it so often backfires, and what to do instead if tracking makes you resent the whole process. My goal isn’t to convince you to never track anything—it’s to help you stop forcing a system that doesn’t fit your brain. By the end, you’ll have a more honest way to decide whether tracking is useful for you, plus a few practical tweaks so you can keep the benefits of tracking without losing your mind (or your momentum).
