Habit Style

Some habits stick on the first try. Others you restart every January and lose by February. It usually isn't about willpower.

Twelve everyday scenarios, from morning routines to new year's plans. Pick the answer that sounds most like you, and you'll get your habit style, why some habits slide off you, and four simple tools to set the next one up to last.

12 quick picks, about 3 minutes. Go with your first instinct.
