The Anchor Principle
An anchor is any existing behavior you perform without thinking. By attaching a new micro-habit immediately after an anchor, you borrow the anchor's automaticity. The new action does not need its own reminder — the anchor becomes the trigger. This is why "after I pour coffee, I write one sentence" works better than "write every morning at 7 AM."
Attach new habits to routines you already do without thinking.
