Tracking definitely motivates me. I love to see the streaks, and the feeling yes I am doing this. Yes I've committed and seeing it marked down feels good. If I miss a day fine I just got to get back to to it cause, in the end we all miss a day, that's no reason to quit.
For this reason there will be a habit tracker for people to use on my website. To help myself, my friends and you guys move forward in the areas you want to move forward in.
"Research shows that we have greater success with the habits we track. For example, a Harvard Business School study of 2,943 households across West Bengal found that families who were told their soap consumption would be tracked were 23 percent more likely to use soap when washing their hands."
