Louis Massaro encourages using reminders as an undervalued productivity and stress-management tool. He suggests placing reminders in your phone or on a list with messages tailored to your needs (e.g., protect your confidence, reduce stress), scheduling them daily/weekly, and keeping them for the commonly cited habit-formation window (three to six weeks) until the behavior is internalized.
I think reminders are a huge undervalued tool that we could be using to keep ourselves on track. And what could that be for you? It could be anything from, you know, remember your legacy. You know, it could be protect your confidence, right? It could be maybe you're. Maybe you're stressed out about everything and you want to say, like, it'll all get done. Stop stressing, right? Like, whatever you need for yourself, set that up that's so big. Put the reminders in your phone to pop up at certain times of the day. Have a list of reminders somewhere that are your current right now. Reminders that whenever you, you know, whether it's daily, at the beginning of the day, at the end of the day, you're able to check back on that, right? And so the reason it's there weekly is because, you know, you know, they say it's three weeks, or some people say it's six weeks to get a habit. But keep the reminder there as long as you need it. And then once you embody it, once you embrace it, then you could set it up with other stuff, right?
