I deleted 80% of my habits and became more productive

I tracked almost 30 habits a day and got slower, not faster. Then I deleted most of them and my output went up. Here is the brain science behind why fewer habits make each one stronger, plus the two-question audit I used to cut my list by 80%.If your habit tracker feels like a second job, this video explains why. You did not fail at discipline. Your brain can only protect a few goals at once, a mechanism called goal shielding, and every extra habit pulls protection off the ones that actually matter. You will learn why adding habits quietly made you less productive, the three kinds of habits to delete first (inherited, trophy, and orphan), and a simple weekly purge you can run tonight to keep only the vital few.=====================📥 Free download, The 80% Habit Purge Kit: https://ideastothrive.gumroad.com/l/cxoflr🎯 Get the Annual Operating System used by 200+ people for unbreakable consistency.
