Do 5 min of metatarsal exercises a day while waiting for something
HABIT #46
Starting Sunday, 14 January 2023 | Day 25
Routine (details & clarification)
I want to do 5 min of metatarsal exercises (see video of Amazing Feet course from BalletWithIsabella) a day while waiting for something (for example waiting for someone to start lunch or dinner).
Starting point & Lessons from the past
I’ve done some metatarsal before but never daily. They’re pretty easy to do. The main thing will be to remember to do them.
Why this habit is important to me:
- It will give me stronger and more flexible feet.
- Which in turn will help me improve my ballet.
- It will allow me to optimize my time. Since I’m not doing anything useful anyway while waiting, it will allow me to get more out of those 5 minutes every day.
Identities I want to build with this habit:
- Contemporary ballerina
- Productive
Trigger:
- I will do this every while waiting for something/ someone, I’ve added a daily recurring task in Akiflow as a reminder.
Tracking:
- I will track this habit in my Akiflow app.
Habit boosters (things that will help me follow through):
- Public accountability: Having it part of this public challenge will boost my motivation to follow through.
- Coaching accountability: This habit was suggested by my ballet coach after I told her about this challenge and asked her for habit ideas. I will track my progress in my monthly report and share it with her for additional accountability.
Obstacle battleplans (how I’ll deal with potential obstacles):
- Forgetting: I’ve known from past experiences that I find ‘while’ habits easier to forget, I’m not sure yet how to tackle this for this habit, but if I think of something, I’ll add it here.
