Thought about it, snce it's near New Year's.

In my opinion, exercising/training/stretching atleast once a week would be a good thing for most people.

Get in the habit of developing habits.

Habit stacking is huge. Add your new habit onto an existing habit, and it's so so much easier to stick with it.

I’m divided on this.

In one hand, when I haven’t done my habits for awhile it seems like everything goes to chaos.

But many days I dread all the annoying chores I do making everyday feel the same.

Yeah, happens to me too. Sometimes just doing one little thing quickly builds momentum back up again.

But many days I dread all the annoying chores I do making everyday feel the same.

Again, yeah, happens to me too. What helps me is to not do chores but to see how efficiently I can do chores. It's more interesting to come up with processes/procedures/tools that get the job done faster. In the end the chore is done AND the next time it will go even faster because I'm more efficient. HTH

Any good tips habbits are so hard to break/make.

I added above about habit stacking. The idea is to lump a new habit onto an existing habit, which makes it so much easier to stick with. For example, when you brush your teeth in the evening, do your Duo lesson. Or, when you go make a cup of coffee add a new habit in during the three minutes it makes to boil the water.

Here's a random article that explains it: https://health.clevelandclinic.org/habit-stacking
