MAKE HABITS A PERMANENT PART OF YOUR ROUTINE TO BECOME EMPOWERED

 

● Begin Small

✔️ Start with a small version of the habit that you can do no matter what.

❓For a book per week, start with a manageable daily commitment of just 5 minutes.

● Break Down Barriers

✔️ Do everything possible to make the habit easy.

❓Want to start each day with meditation? Establish an early sleep schedule to wake up early and enjoy deep morning meditation.

● Be Precise

✔️ Clarify your intentions, outlining what, when, and where.

❓Instead of saying you will read, say you will read a book for 30 minutes each morning after meditation.

● Keep Track Of Your Progress

✔️ Record your daily progress using a journal, reminder application, alarm or calendar.

❓To achieve a goal of drinking eight cups of water per day, track the progress of each glass.

● Appreciate Each Success

✔️ Recognize the accomplishment of each task and day, even if failures were experienced along the way.

❓When learning a new habit, take pleasure in dedicating just 5 minutes to it, even if progress seems tiny.

● Claim Your Rewards

✔️ Grant yourself a small reward every time

❓Experiencing burnout due to work loads? Reward yourself with a piece of chocolate or a few minutes of your favourite music.

● Develop A Strategy

✔️Recognize elements that may interfere with your habit (like playing games) and formulate a plan.

❓Started an daily swimming but playing games to relax? Play some mindful games

● Implement Accountability

✔️ Team up with a partner or share your progress (not just the goal) with a mentor.

❓Go for counseling to life coach with a friend or hire a personal coach to add social pressure.

● Execute Changes

✔️ Re-design your surroundings in the way you get support.

❓If developing positive thoughts is the goal, Do not indulge your negative thoughts; instead, try to remain positive, even in negative situations.

● Make It Enjoyable

✔️ Identify the version of the habit that sparks your excitement

❓If becoming physically fit is your goal, yet you detest exercising, but have a fondness for walking, then consider walking as an alternative.

● Never Skip Two Days Consecutively

✔️ Missing one day due to other significant tasks is tolerable, but missing two consecutive days is not acceptable.

❓After meditating for 10 days in a row, unforeseen circumstances cause you to miss a day - don't stop! Regain your momentum by getting back on track the next day.
