How to break bad habits
How habits are formed
The importance of consistency
Become Aware Of Your Choices
Repeated choices become habits. The first step toward change is awareness and the best way to become aware is to measure.
- Track every action that relates to the area of your life you want to improve.
- Start off with an easy tempo. Just track one habit for one week.
- Pick the habit that has the greatest control over you; that’s where you’ll start.
- Once you start tracking your life, your attention will be focused on the smallest things you’re doing right, as well as the smallest things you’re doing wrong.
