New Years Resolutions vs. 21-Day Habits
I am encouraged to see most of my friends and colleagues are skipping out on near years resolutions this year. Everyone seems to be realizing that any day is a great day to make a positive change in their life, and that they can set goals on December 31st just as easily as they can on January 1st.
I’d like to take this opportunity to share the concept of 21-day habits (as taught by Strategic Coach). The basic idea is, anything you do on a daily basis for 21-days straight becomes a habit that is then easier to do than to skip. In other words, if you hit the treadmill for 30 minutes each day for 21-days, it will actually feel more natural to run on the 22nd day than to skip it.
Using this simple strategy, you can focus on creating one new positive habit each month. Try it, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the results!
