With this journal template, you can include as many as 10 habits. If your journal notebook is big, you can even add more habits at the bottom. Then, you can customize it by pasting cuttings like the butterflies in the example, according to your preference.

5. Another Minimalist Habit Tracker

This is a great minimalist bullet journal habit tracker and sleep tracker (or any tracker you may want to put on the other side of the notebook, for that matter). It is perfect for a dotted notebook, as the dots can serve as your guide when tracking.
