Mental Models with Witty Prince

S1: EP25 - Always Take The Morning Sandwich (HD)


Listen Later

How did your yesterday morning go? From 6am to 12pm - was it productive?

I have struggled with mornings for the longest time. Mornings are my period of greatest energy, and it pained me to waste it on scrolling.

Today’s mental model: Always take the morning sandwich. To create daily habits that stick, sandwich your new behavior into current consistent behavior. You already have consistent behaviors - wake up, scroll phone, bathe, brush teeth.

Your problem isn’t consistency. Your problem is you haven’t sandwiched enough good behaviors in the middle of your current consistent behaviors.

Example: scroll phone → bathe → brush teeth → eat breakfast → read Bible → reach out to client → go to work. It’s that simple.
