Free Printable Habit Tracker-Stay Consistent All Year
The start of a new year often feels like the ideal time to establish new habits and cultivate a daily routine that fosters personal growth. Whether your ultimate goal is weight loss, drinking more water, or simply cutting back on junk food, habit tracking is a powerful tool to help you stay consistent.
That’s why I’ve created free printable habit trackers designed for personal use throughout the entire year. These simple tools are an excellent choice if you want to track progress, set specific goals, and gain a broader understanding of how small daily habits can lead to positive change.
I personally am not a New Year’s resolution person; instead, I like to make new goals. I found that for me personally, annual goal setting was not working for me. Instead, I start slowly, weekly, then monthly. If that seems too much for you, start with a daily goal. Focusing on a small goal or simply creating a habit can be a better way to succeed. This is why I love these printables: they can be customized to fit your goals! 
What is a Habit Tracker?
A habit tracker is a tool that helps you track your habits or goals. It can help track things like how often you exercise, how many hours of sleep you get each night, how many steps you get in, etc.
Why Use a Habit Tracker?
Habit formation doesn’t happen overnight. As James Clear explains in his book on building habits, small steps and little things done daily make a big difference over time. A daily habit tracker or weekly habit tracker is a great way to stay accountable. By writing down daily tasks and checking them off, you’ll see how your new routine slowly becomes second nature. You can see your good habits and your bad habits, and concentrate on goal setting for your future! The great thing about habit trackers is that they can be customized to fit your needs. You can choose to track as many or as few habits as you want. You can also create different trackers for different areas of your life.
When I decide what habit or goals I want to create, I find that writing them down with a pen and paper and checking them off at the end of the day makes a world of difference. I feel like I accomplished something.
