The Habit Ladder is a system that is automated by you. It is called a habit ladder because, from the time you wake up to finishing your first work task of the day, you're climbing up one rung at a time. Each new step is reached because of the last.

The Habit Loop is a breakdown of a habit put it into three sections –

• Cue: A certain trigger that awakens the habit

• Routine: The action you perform without thinking.

• Reward: The change you experience making you want to do more of the same.

When one good habit triggers another, the speed of success doubles.
