Get Consistent
Habits happen regularly, so if you want to form a new one, you must do it consistently. Based on your actual habit, your goals, and your scheduling, you may complete your good habit yearly, monthly, weekly, daily, or many times per day.
Whatever your desire, performing it consistently will be the only way to transform it into a habit. This is because habits require a strong association between stimulus and response — the strong consistency will yield stronger associations.
When associations are very high, the habit will occur with little thought or work. Until you get to that point, be diligent in your consistency.
