My bujo habit tracker nearly caused a huge burnout
Last month I counted my daily tasks in my bullet journal. Turned out I was tracking 17 different habits. Every single day. No wonder I felt overwhelmed. I found this stat online from a productivity study: people who track more than 5 habits at once usually quit within 2 weeks. I was doing way too much. Has anyone else cut back their habit list and seen better results?

Oh man, 17 habits is basically signing up for a part-time job you didn't apply for! I once tracked "drink water" and "breathe" in the same list, so clearly I needed to scale way back too.

Is it just me who wonders if we ever really "quit" habits or if they just go dormant until life gets stressful again? I swear my snack cravings come back the second I'm on a deadline.
