Don't break the chain

Dont break the chain is the concept of accomplishing things on a daily basis. If you have something you’d like to create a habit of doing every day, mark an X on a calendar each day you do it. After you’ve accumulated a few X’s, you won’t want to break the visual chain you’ve created.

- Figure out your goals. Start with no more than two, and add next goal after three weeks if you can handle it. Typical goal can be "Write", "Code, "Work", "Exercise", "Clean", "Stop Smoking" or anything else that is important to you.

- Set daily minimums for each goal. Things like "I will run one mile" or "I will put away 10 stray items" work better than setting a time limit.

- Set your boundaries and rules. Because this process expects you to work every single day, you have to figure out what youre going to do when youre sick, on vacation, or just find yourself in a situation where you wont be accomplishing your goal that day but dont deserve the punishment of a broken chain. Dont break the chain app allows you to skip day if you really need to do that, without breaking the chain.

- Monitor your progress. As soon as you finish one daily activity, use bottom color bar to check off activity for that day. You can use different colors to color-code different daily progress.
