It's not too late to build new habits in 2023.
With this in mind, I thought it'd be useful to create a simple, fun, & easy-to-use habit tracker in Google Sheets.
If you'd rather jump to the end and just grab the template, be my guest.

Step 1: Setup
To begin we'll create a simple "Setup" worksheet where we can choose to enter Daily Habits and have them populate across each month.
• Create Header
• Format with alternating colors
• Enter Habits
Here's an example (we'll come back to this later):

Step 2: January Setup
Here we'll create a framework for our January tab.
• Monthly Header
• Daily Habits Header
• Week # Headers
• Array Formula For Daily Habits
This formula will pull the habits from your setup tab into the monthly sheets.

Step 3: Checkboxes & Weekly Completed
Next, we'll add a series of checkboxes for each task on each individual day.
I also like to add a simple COUNTIF formula at the end of each row.
This will show the number of times each task has been completed for the month.

Step 4: Daily Percentage Complete
Here we'll add a few more COUNTIF formulas along with some Conditional Formatting to view our daily progress.
• Tasks Done
• Tasks Not Done
• Daily Percentage Complete

Step 5: Daily Productivity Chart
There's just something about looking at a chart that seems to motivate me to keep going.
In this step, we'll add a smooth line chart to the top of our worksheet and connect it to our checkboxes.

Step 6: Progress Meter
For our last metric we'll create a cool progress bar to show the following:
• Percentage of daily habits completed for the week
• Green progress meter that fills as items are checked off our list
See formulas in GIF:
COUNTIF, COUNTA, and SPARKLINES

Step 7: Weekly Habits
I've also added a small section at the bottom of each month for weekly habits.
Things you might not do each day, but you'd like to accomplish every week.
Follow a similar format as detailed above.
• Weekly Headers
• Checkboxes
• Progress Meter
