If you want to build a habit and stick with it over time, you better make it as easy possible to keep doing that task.
I’ve used a couple of blogging platforms over the years which I've quickly dropped, but I’m feeling different this time around and I've kept the streak going longer than before. I'm confident using HEY World because publishing a new blog post is as easy as writing an email.
I don't need my laptop, I don't need a build environment, I can type out a mail and hit send. And with that I've written another blog post and I've cast another vote in my mental perception for being someone who writes. (to +1 James' Clear's Atomic Habits).
Another great example of removing friction is Ben's daily blog on Tiny Projects - paper based blogging!
Paper Website - Start a website right from your phone. An incredible example of technology meeting the user where they are, attaching the solution to an existing habit loop.
What are you trying to commit to, and how can you reduce friction in that process?
