All sorts of bad habits crop up left and right. Instead of going with the "willpower" method I've adopted what my friends and I call the "moneymouth" method (short for put your money where your mouth is). Exploit your honesty and financial sensibility by making bets to architect your habits.
Real examples: I'm lazy and get up late, but this system got me up before 7am daily for 3 weeks. I wanted to begin practicing guitar, I practiced for 30 minutes daily for a month with this. Right now I'm riding my bicycle 100 miles a week. I am not generally known for my extreme willpower to do stuff like this, I think I just found a functional self-exploit.
