How does one pick a "word"? Well, it's not science but there are a few things to think about. The purpose of the word is to remind you of your greater goals. And a word to help you overcome inertia, if that what tends to hold you back, as it is in my case. And if it makes you smile a little, even if wryly, that much the better.
For example, let's say you want to lose weight and you find yourself snacking even if you aren't really hungry. Research shows that delaying yourself for fifteen minutes often allows you to skip the snack. So here are some words to consider:
"wait"- I like it because it it reminds you to wait and is a play on "weight".
"away"- because it reminds you to go away for a minute, has the sound of "weigh", and reminds you of your love to travel "away"
"desire"- is it really your desire to to eat now? Do you desire to lose weight more?
That's the starting point...
