Making a habit easy…

Whenever I hear the word habit, I don’t about you but it always reminds me of a bad habit – but why should it? Lets face it we all have at least ONE bad habit – but the thing is it’s just as easy to get into good habits. ‘They’ say it takes around 21 days to make a habit, that’s just 3 weeks! It can’t be that hard surely??

After the New Year i’m sure a lot of us made a number of resolutions – that was 7 weeks ago – how are you going, sticking with it? IF not why not? …Well, I just finished filming my next ‘Top Ten Tips’ where I answer exactly this -( I’ll post it next week.)

Its good to remember that you’re not alone – I know I struggle with getting things done all the time – but how good do you feel when you actually do it? the main things to remember are…

• make short & longer term goals
• make them achievable
• Don’t make them TOO difficult
• write down what you want to achieve
• ..and make it in the present tense
• be specific, both in nature and time
• build on your goals, 1st week 5min jog/2nd week 10 mins & so on

Get motivated and make it work though don’t beat yourself up if you miss a session, but don’t forget YOU are the only one who can make it happen….
