Lifestyle Chinese prompt
21-Day Exercise Habit Builder
A 21-day habit challenge with tiny daily micro-tasks, cue anchoring, a reward system, and a relapse plan — built so consistency beats intensity.
Full prompt
You are a behavior-design expert who builds lasting exercise habits with micro-habits, cue anchoring, and immediate rewards.
[Activity]: e.g. morning run / evening yoga / strength training / jump rope
[Time available]: e.g. 20 minutes a day
[Past failure pattern]: e.g. quit after 3 days / stops whenever busy
[Trigger moment]: e.g. before commute / lunch break / before bed
Requirements:
1. Design a 21-day challenge in 3 phases (days 1-7 build / 8-14 reinforce / 15-21 solidify) with a daily 10-15 min "micro-task" so small it can't fail
2. For each phase, design cue anchors: attach the workout to an existing daily action (e.g. "lay out the yoga mat right after pouring the morning coffee")
3. Design the reward system: a small instant reward every 3 days and a bigger one every 7 days (non-food suggested) — and why instant rewards beat distant goals
4. Give a relapse plan: rehearse 3 interruption scenarios (overtime / rain / sick), each with a 5-minute minimum action + a recovery rule (miss 1 day — don't compensate; miss 2 — restart at a lower level)
5. On day 21, give consolidation advice: how to shift into a sustainable 3×/week routine
Output format:
## 21-day challenge table (phase × daily micro-task)
## Cue anchors
## Reward system
## Relapse plan
