Consistently doing something leads to it becoming a habit. Identify those things in your life that you need to start doing and see if you can stack them together to be twice as productive.
For example, a year ago Sarah came to the realization that she just wasn't getting enough physical activity. Life had become too busy and it was on the back burner. She also realized that she didn't have enough one on one time with her husband to just talk through things without distractions. So they started going on morning walks together. Now, it's a habit. They walk every morning for 24 minutes. They get that boost in the morning from starting off the day with light exercise outside and they can align their schedules and goals for the day and week ahead. If Sarah hadn't stacked these two together, she'd be going on a walk by herself and then still trying to find time to talk with her husband. This way, she's accomplishing more in less time.
When you try to build a new habit, take it in bite-sized chunks. If you go from not working out at all to then expecting yourself to work out for an hour plus multiple times a week, then you're going to fail. Start small and build.
If you're able to habit stack, that's great because you're more likely to want to stick to that routine. But if you can't (or even if you can!) find an accountability partner to keep you on track.
