An easier way to make healthy habits stick for good
Have you ever had that burst of motivation to get incredibly healthy? Then turned your life on it’s head, trying to fit in as many new healthy habits as possible? Did it work? Probably not.
Here’s a better idea:
Write down 11 healthy habits that you’d like to implement. They can be little things, like go to bed earlier. Or big things, like give up smoking. Start one new habit tomorrow. Practise it daily.
Put a reminder in your diary to implement your 2nd habit in 3 weeks time. Then your 3rd habit in 6 weeks time. Keep going, until you have one habit in your diary every 3 weeks for 30 weeks. By the time you start your 2nd habit, habit no.1 should be a normal part of daily life. This approach takes some discipline, but it works. And who said making change was going to be easy anyway?
