A system for recommending reestablishment of discontinued productive habits, the system comprising:

• a system memory;
• a computer processor coupled to the system memory;
• a recording unit coupled to the computer processor, the recording unit to record behaviors over time in pursuit of an identified goal;
• a measuring unit to measure progress towards the identified goal over time;
• an identifying unit to identify one or more periods of time where positive progress toward the identified goal resulted,
• an identifying unit to identify one or more periods of time where negative progress toward the identified goal resulted, and
• differences in the behaviors between the periods of time where the positive progress resulted and the periods of time where the negative progress resulted;
• and
• a recommending unit to recommend behavior changes based on the identified differences of the behaviors.

A computer program product for recommending reestablishment of discontinued productive habits, the computer program product comprising;

• a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code configured to:
• record behaviors over time in pursuit of an identified goal;
• measure progress towards the identified goal over time;
• identify one or more periods of time where positive progress toward the identified goal resulted;
• identify one or more periods of time where negative progress toward the identified goal resulted;
• identify, by an electronic computer processor, differences in the behaviors between the periods of time where the positive progress resulted and the periods of time where the negative progress resulted;
• and
• recommend behavior changes based on the identified differences of the behaviors.
