<h1 id='title'>Pleasant little habits</h1>
<time datetime='Fri, 20 Jan 2023 10:30:00 CST'>20 Jan. 2023, 10:30 PM</time>
<p>
I bought a new car a few months ago, and I grew fond of it fairly quickly.
It’s one of those things I’ll end up using a lot, so I like the idea of making it feel more meaningful and personal to me.
I named it Hopper because when I first got it, I often noticed grasshoppers hanging out on its exterior.
</p><p>
One thing I like to have available in the car when I go places is hand sanitizer.
I got in the habit of using it when I would go anywhere during the pandemic.
So I got one of those little bottles with a nice smell.
That way I could build up a pleasant smell memory when I got into the car.
</p>

</figure>
<p>
At some point, I got a tin of wintergreen mints.
Eventually I developed a habit where any time I got in the car after being out somewhere, I would apply the hand sanitizer and have a mint.
It turned out to be a great way of making my car a comfortable place for me.
The sensory familiarity was kind of a little reset for my mood.
</p><p>
People sometimes refer to these kinds of habits as “rituals”, but to me, that term places too much weight on them.
I considered calling them “ritules”, as in little rituals, but I thought that sounded a little dumb and was still a lot like “rituals”.
Also, if I did that, people would see the title and think I just misspelled “rituals”.
</p><p>
Anyway, I think habits like this seem useful and nice to have.
You can use them to make something mundane a little more meaningful, or help shift your mindset.
I’d like to maybe add some more to my life.
</p><p>
But I don’t know if I can just decide to do them and implement them “from the top down”, so to speak.
The mint and hand sanitizer habit just developed naturally, and I still only do it when I feel like doing it.
It seems like when it comes to developing meaningful and pleasant small habits, it’s a better idea to just try some things that seem nice and see what sticks.
</p><p>
Do you have any pleasant little habits or rituals?
Did you start them “top-down”, or did they develop naturally?
Have you named your car (or bike, jacket, house, computer, etc.)?
