Columns and Data Types

• Habit Name (Text): Descriptive label for each habit.
• Target Frequency (Days/Week) (Number/Text): e.g., "7/7" or "5/7". Helps calculate progress.
• Daily Status (Boolean – Y/N): User inputs either 'Y' for completed or 'N' for not completed.
• Completion Rate (%) (Calculated - Number): Automatically computes based on historical data.
• Last Completed Date (Date): Tracks the most recent day a habit was marked complete.
• Current Streak (Days) (Calculated - Number): Counts consecutive days with completion.
• Asset Type (Text/Category Dropdown): e.g., Financial, Physical Health, Emotional Well-being, Skill Development.
• Asset Name (Text): Specific name of the asset being tracked.
• Current Value (USD) (Currency - Number): Monetized value or measurable metric for the asset.
• Status (Dropdown: Active, Inactive, Under Review): Indicates current condition of the asset.
• Habit Linked (Text/Reference): Identifies which habit supports or maintains this asset.

Formulas Required for Automation

• Completion Rate (%) = (Number of Y entries / Total Days) * 100: Calculated using COUNTIF and conditional logic.
• Current Streak (Days): Uses a nested formula with IF, ISBLANK, and OFFSET to count consecutive "Y" values from the last date.
• Last Completed Date: =MAX(IF(Daily_Logs!$B:$B="Y", Daily_Logs!$A:$A)) – array formula requiring Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
• Asset Health Score (in Dashboard): =IF([Current Value] >= [Target], 100, ([Current Value]/[Target]) * 100) – converts asset value to percentage of goal.

Conditional Formatting Rules

• Habit Completion Status: Green fill for 'Y', red for 'N' in Daily Status column.
• Streak Progress: Color scale from yellow (5-10 days) to green (>15 days).
• Aging Habit Alerts: If a habit hasn’t been completed in 7+ days, apply red background with bold text.
• Asset Value Status: Red if below 50% of target, yellow if between 50%-80%, green above 80%.

User Instructions

1. Open the template and navigate to the Daily Logs sheet.
2. Enter today’s date in Column A and mark each habit as 'Y' or 'N' in its respective column.
3. In the Asset Inventory, update any changes to asset values, status, or linked habits daily.
4. The main tables on the Habit Tracker (Main) and Progress Dashboard will auto-update with formulas and conditional formatting.
5. Review your dashboard weekly to assess habit streaks and asset growth. Adjust targets if needed.
6. To reset a streak, simply stop logging for a day — the formula will automatically break continuity.
