Forming a habit takes on average 21 days. This is now my 21st post. I have been writing every morning for the past 3 weeks. I think I have succeeded forming a habit.
3 weeks is enough time to get used to a new habit, accept it and make it part of your daily routine. It is nice streak to start with and it would be a shame to break it now. Even if it breaks it's a nice goal for the next streak record.
The time allocation has helped a lot. I know when I need to do this. Getting it done early in the morning gets it out of my mind and I can focus on the rest of the stuff for the day. Having it part of the morning routine has felt natural. I don't need to think about it, I can free my mind to think for example about what to write instead.
3 weeks is also enough time to see the change so that it's possible to see why it's worth to keep going.
Original goal was to improve my writing skills by just trying to write regularly. I'm not sure yet if it has improwed. I haven't looked back to what I have been writing. But getting my thoughts out in a written form feels easier already.
Biggest gain with this exercise is not the writing but the thought process and the bigger idea of change and doing. If I can do this I can do anything. It has put me thinking. Realizing the ideas, making actual use of them.
