Environment Friction for Habits
Environment friction for habits makes bad choices harder and good ones easier by changing your space—often more reliable than willpower alone.
Environment friction for habits adds steps to unwanted behaviors and removes steps from desired ones—cookies in a high cabinet, gym clothes on the chair, phone charger across the room. Friction beats motivation for repeat choices because defaults win.
One change per week prevents overhaul fatigue.
