Reason: You're Trying to Share a "Bad Habit"
The most frequent reason for this issue is that the habit you are trying to share is a "Bad Habit" (one you want to quit or avoid).
Why can't Bad Habits be shared in a Circle?
The entire concept of a Circle is built around positive, shared action and growth. The group's progress, Momentum Points, and Unity Streak are all calculated based on the contributions and successful check-ins of its members.
Good Habits are about taking action. When you complete one, you are actively contributing to the Circle's success.
Bad Habits, on the other hand, are about avoidance and inaction. Success is achieved by not doing something.
Because this concept of "not doing" doesn't fit with the model of active, shared contribution, only Good Habits can be shared in a Circle.
The Solution: If your goal is to quit a bad habit with your group, try reframing it as a positive "Good Habit." For example:
Instead of sharing the bad habit "No Junk Food," create and share a good habit called "Eat a Healthy Snack."
Instead of "Don't Smoke," create and share "Practice a Breathing Exercise."
