I\u2019m not sure if I understand the question, so please forgive me if I answer it in a way you didn\u2019t intend. I think what you\u2019re asking is whether there are habits that might be considered tricky or negative if done in the wrong way. In my experience, the biggest risk is taking on too many new habits at once, and/or getting caught up in thinking that a habit has to be done PERFECTLY in order to be able to check it off. For the first issue, too many new habits at once, you risk setting yourself up for failure by adding a bunch of new things at one time because you haven\u2019t gotten automatic at anything yet. This makes it all feel like really hard work and you\u2019re more likely to just give it all up, versus starting with only one or two new habits, which would be more manageable. For the second issue, needing to be perfect, there are some days where we\u2019re tired or incredibly busy, and we have a limited amount of willpower. If you\u2019re going to have a \u2018perfect or nothing\u2019 attitude about habits on those days, you\u2019ll start to resent the process. Always try to do something towards each habit every day, but accept that your best is going to change from day to day and that sometimes you might not get to something, and sometimes you might not do something (like flossing!) in the best way possible. At least you tried!!<\/div>\n<\/div>
