Build one daily habit by protecting a visible chain and starting fresh without judgment after a miss.
Chain milestones Follow these stops from choosing your habit through the first review.
Day 1 Every night After a miss Day 30 How the chain works Keep the method small, daily, and easy to measure.
Choose one habit Define the smallest version that still truly counts, such as sitting down to write for 15 minutes or stepping outside in running shoes.
Mark each day A nightly yes earns an X, and BodyBuddy maintains the calendar and reports the chain length.
Reset calmly A missed day resets the current count by design, but it does not erase your longest chain or mean you failed.
Protect one number Focus on extending the current chain for as long as the habit remains useful, with no fixed end date.
BodyBuddy support BodyBuddy handles the tracking so you can focus on showing up.
Nightly check-in BodyBuddy asks whether the habit happened each night and records your answer.
Visible calendar BodyBuddy adds each X, tracks the current chain, and remembers the longest chain.
Judgment-free reset BodyBuddy does not lecture after a miss and helps you begin the next chain.
Thirty-day review BodyBuddy checks in on day 30 about whether the smallest form should grow.
