Reducing friction

Reducing friction is a killer way of sticking to new habits and staying consistent.

This is documented over and over. If you want to read a book, keep it visible, if you want to go to the gym, leave your bag ready for the morning.

Yesterday I experienced this with my project and AI. I was really not feeling inspired, but I did have my list of tasks and thought “meh, let me get Claude to start this one quickly and we’ll see where we land”

Once I started seeing the results I actually got hooked and was excited developing the new feature.

AI is great at reducing friction and that is proving to help me be consistent.
