You could take notes in a spiral bound notebook. Not like for school. Just if you think something would make a difference for you. When you are done, select just one recommendation and practice it. Give yourself about 3 weeks. By that time you will figure out if its not for you. If it is working it will be a habit. For myself I start with something small, promise myself a reward for success and pay myself for completing the trial period. Then pick a new one. You may include your partner in the selection process, ask for their support (but no nagging) I hope this helps. Good luck.
