Often times when striving to achieve a positive habit we fail due to the negative mindset and negative story we tell ourselves with respect to the habit and our perceived success. So how do we fix this and increase our chances of developing these new habits? The key is to tell yourself a positive story regarding the habit (e.g.it will feel so good to be in shape). By doing this, you increase the chances of sticking with the habit despite occasional downfalls.
Key Takeaways:
- The story you tell yourself about your habit matters more than most people realize.
- Ask yourself how you feel about the habit you’re creating
- Start creating a better story by focusing on the things you love about the habit.
