SELF READING BEFORE SCREEN 164 words
Replace morning phone scroll with reading using the four laws
You reach for the phone before your eyes are open and lose half an hour to the feed. This applies the four laws of behaviour change to swap that scroll for reading: it takes where your phone sleeps, what your first minutes look like and what makes you grab it, then reworks the cues so the book wins. You get a concrete setup, not a vague resolution to be better.
I want to replace the habit of scrolling my phone first thing in the morning with reading instead.
What I usually read or want to read: {READING_MATERIAL}
Where I currently keep my phone at night: {PHONE_LOCATION}
Where I wake up and what my first minutes look like: {MORNING_CONTEXT}
How long I realistically have in the morning: {AVAILABLE_TIME}
What makes me reach for my phone automatically: {PHONE_TRIGGERS}
Apply the Four Laws of Behaviour Change to design the reading-before-screens habit:
1. Make it obvious: how do I restructure my environment so the book is the path of least resistance?
2. Make it attractive: what reading material or ritual will make me eager to start?
3. Make it easy: what is the minimum number of pages or minutes that still counts?
4. Make it satisfying: what immediate feedback or reward reinforces the choice?
Also tell me exactly how to remove friction from the book and add friction to scrolling. Be specific to my morning setup. ⚠ human-in-the-loop: you are responsible for the results of using this prompt, not us.
