Map Your Triggers

For the next 3 days, run a trigger audit. Each time you catch yourself in a habit — good or bad — jot down five things:

1. What time is it? — Many habits fire on a daily clock.
2. Where are you? — Kitchen, desk, and car each pull different behaviors.
3. How do you feel? — Bored, tired, or stressed are common culprits.
4. Who's around? — You snack differently with different friends.
5. What just happened? — Finishing lunch can summon the dessert craving.
