The most common failure mode is failing to show up

Are you me? I do, or have done, almost everything on this list.

My rule for adding habits is to wait every 21 days before adding new ones. It's also important to make sure you don't have too many habits to maintain, as they impose a cognitive burden. If you can reduce them to code or programs, do it.

Couldn't agree more. I have a very hard time maintaining more than 10 total daily habits or about 90-120 mins of daily habits.

What do you use for your quantified self measurements, in terms of devices, apps, etc?

I have a description of how I choose my tools and collect data: http://kibabase.com/articles/self-quantification#tools

I am thinking of moving all the data collection to my personal site, as libreoffice clerical mistakes cost me a day of nap data(then I got a double whammy from not being able to find my blood pressure cuff the other day).
