The "convenience factor" is how convenient is the task at hand that one will do it. This plays a major role when trying to start new habits and stop old habits.
If one wants to start a new habit, then one should try to make it as convenient as possible that it becomes a no brainer to continue with the change at hand. Whereas on the flip side, one would want to make it as inconvenient as possible to stop the old habit by putting many obstacles in the way that each further crossing is so much more painstaking than stopping there.
Social media is a typical habit that many want to reduce and lots just don't understand how. There are many apps out there that can give the social media app a limited period of time. Though quicker than not, one just uses the master password and continues on the addiction.
One step further would be to create a secondary account where the social media apps live. This is harder to circumvent, though once in this garden of entertainment it is hard to get back out.
Then one could try to put the social media apps on a completely different device. This like the last barrier will not alleviate the haven of entertainment. Though it will reduce the chance of getting there unless one is willing to constantly carry around two devices.
These are some examples of putting potential obstacles in the way without completely cutting off the source of enjoyment.
