- To make writing a daily habit, it is important to repeat the action of writing consistently, and the number of times you write is more important than the time spent writing.
- Habits are formed not through a long time but through consistent repetition, and the time required for habituation is not important, but the number of times an action is performed is important.
- It emphasizes writing consistently every day by investing a short amount of time to form a writing habit, and cites James Clear's "Atomic Habits" to emphasize the importance of habit formation.
It's better to record how much you write every day and what you write than to just say, 'I'm going to write every day!'
Habits become automatic when you repeat an action. When you repeat a particular action, your brain changes to a more efficient structure for performing that action. Not just writing, the number of times you perform an action is more important than the time you spend on a habit to build a habit.
Lady Writing a Letter (1887)_Albert Edelfelt (Finnish, 1854 - 1905)
So I write every day. Even if it's just 2 minutes, 10 minutes, I write and write. I write leisurely so that I can live a life where I naturally write even when I become an old woman with white hair.
▶ The most important thing to master any habit is 'repetition'. It's not about completing it.
▶ It's not how long you do it, but how often you repeat it that matters for habits to become automated.
▶ Time has no effect on habit formation. It doesn't matter if it's 21 days, 30 days, or 300 days. What matters is the rate at which you perform the action. Doing an action twice in three days and doing it 200 times will lead to vastly different results.
