Okay, so you have made a decision to take better care of yourself and you have to change your habits. What next? Without a plan and a goal it becomes very difficult to change our habits. Right? Right!
I have heard many people say that it takes three weeks to change a habit. That is not very long, if you think about it. Sometimes we are trying to change habits that we have had for many years, so three weeks is not long at all.
I find that in order to change a habit, I have to give myself a HUGE pep rally. I have to talk myself into the fact that I CAN change my habit and that it is a matter of staying motivated.
Many of us are trying to change our eating habits, exercise habits, and trying to improve the way we react to stressful situations in our lives. We read books and go to lectures to help ourselves. We become part of organized programs. And all of these things ARE helpful, but nothing can help us if we don’t stay motivated.
For me sustained motivation requires that I say daily affirmations and tell myself that I can accomplish my goals.
How do you change your habits?
