How to Build Positive Habits and Break Bad Ones
Drop a Single CTA Above the Fold and Echo It After Every Objection
Trade the hero banner for a 320 × 56 px sticky bar that holds one micro-sentence and one button: "Launch 7-day trial—no card." Heat-map tests on 41 SaaS sites show this bar lifts first-click rate from 11 % to 27 % sans pushing the headline lower.
Transform Winner Proof Into a Looping Reel That Sparks Round-Two Entries
Trim the announcement clip to a brisk six: 1 s close-up of the shipping sticker, 2 s unboxing, one winner’s face, two overlay "Round 2 drops tonight". Export at IG portrait, thirty frames, no audio. Post as Reel with caption "Next draw 8 PM UTC – drop 🎁". Profile-pin for forty-eight.
On the mobile install the cloud vendor’s client, mark the Vault folder "Offline first." Open PDFs in PDF Expert; scribble; save. The incremental sync flings mark-ups back to the Mac within 30 ticks, ready for the next writing session.
Auto-Populate Post Dates with a 5-Column Date Formula
Place the starting Monday of the
Throw on a traffic-light setup to the Status column so you can eyeball bottlenecks in under half a second per row. Highlight the entire Status range (say D2:D100), dive into Format › Conditional formatting, choose "Custom formula is", and drop =D2="Live". Paint background #00B04F and font #FFFFFF. Add two more rules: =D2="Review" with #FF9C2A and #000000; =D2="Paused" with #C41230 and #FFFFFF. Check "Done" and lock the range via Data › Protected ranges so collaborators can’t overwrite the colors.
Park your mobile in another room at half-past nine tonight; the typical user bleeds 145 minutes of a.m. focus to bottomless-feed rebound. Within 48-hour days the bedtime dopamine dip narrows and the itch to peek at notifications at dawn plunges 34 % (University of Zurich, 2023).
Record just the kickoff for two straight weeks; ditch duration, distance, or word count. A 2023 NIH study found four-fold dropout among participants who monitored full sessions versus those who checked a simple "done" after the micro-sprint.

Comments: Native Word notes survive only if they were created with the modern "New Comment" pane (post-2013). Legacy balloon comments become plain bracketed text. Run Review ▸ Inspect ▸ Issues in Word first; remove any Handwritten or Sound notes–they are dropped.
Tracked Changes: Accept or deny formatting changes before upload; Docs discards move-markup and formatting balloons. Character-level insertions/deletions convert to highlighted text with strikethrough, but author initials are lost. Restore them by copying the Word Reviewing Pane data into a companion sheet.
Row 42 holds the evergreen bank: 40 text stubs harvested by the XML import from your top blog URLs. Each stub auto-slices at 280 characters and adds a trackable Bitly link that mirrors into the matching Facebook column. Set conditional formatting to flag the cell scarlet if the same link appears twice within 7 days–kills accidental duplicates without scrolling.
Drop price objections before they form: insert a two-line risk reversal directly below the primary CTA. A/B data from 2,400 split-tests collected by CXL shows "Ship today, send it back in 30 for free–no printout needed" converts 2.3× better than any money-back guarantee hidden in an FAQ at the footer.
Place the exact phrase inside the first 35 characters of the hero line; eye-tracking shows 68 % of users fixate there before deciding to continue. Follow with a time-boxed consequence: "…because FedEx invoices close at 6 p.m. EST." The specificity spikes cortisol levels enough to keep thumbs stationary.
Day 3, 08:30: commute podcast wraps, mind drifts to candy. New cue set day before: podcast finish = tin snap. Reward: one powerful sugar-free peppermint; menthol saturates TRPM8 receptors, satiety signal equals 3 g sucrose but zip calories. Urge crashes from 7 to 2 within 45 s (n=12 self trial).
Impose ZIP or PDF Mime Type by Adding &export=download Parameter
Glue &export=download snugly after the file ID to kill the default splash page and serve the raw byte stream. The server drops the viewer token and sets the Content-Disposition: attachment header, so browsers handle the payload as a file, not as a web page.
