We can use the Strategy of Scheduling to make time for our habits from "summary" of Better Than Before by Gretchen Rubin

The Strategy of Scheduling can be a powerful tool in our quest to develop and maintain good habits. By setting aside specific blocks of time for our habits, we can ensure that they are given the attention and priority they deserve. This strategy is especially effective for habits that require a consistent and regular commitment, such as exercise or meditation. When we schedule our habits, we are essentially making a commitment to ourselves to prioritize them. This can help to eliminate decision fatigue and reduce the likelihood of procrastination. By designating a particular time each day for our habits, we make them a non-negotiable part of our routine. Scheduling our habits can also help us to create a sense of structure and predictability in our day. Knowing exactly when we will be working on our habits can reduce feelings of overwhelm and uncertainty. This can be particularly helpful for those who thrive on routine and structure. Furthermore, the act of scheduling our habits can serve as a visual reminder of our commitment to ourselves. Seeing our habits written down on our calendar or planner can serve as a motivator to follow through on our intentions. It can also provide a sense of accomplishment as we check off each scheduled habit. In order to effectively implement the Strategy of Scheduling, it is important to be realistic and intentional about the time slots we choose. It is helpful to consider our natural rhythms and energy levels when scheduling our habits. For example, if we are more alert and focused in the morning, we may want to schedule our most important habits during that time.
  1. The Strategy of Scheduling can be a valuable tool in helping us to make time for our habits. By committing to a specific schedule and making our habits a priority, we can increase our chances of success in forming lasting and meaningful habits.
