If you set goals and go after them with all the determination you can muster, your gifts will take you places that will amaze you. -Les Brown
If it takes 66 days for the behavior to become automatic and we seek improvement, it will take longer to actually measure the improvement.
First: Define the goal. Analyze how the actual problem makes us feel and visualize the changes to our life once we resolve the issue.
Second: Plan our change program and establish subgoals. Whatever we are setting out to do, the plan simply must be sustainable.
Third: Commence to getting rid of negative behaviors. Control our environment to reduce exposure to temptation.
Fourth: Hang tough—even if we suffer an occasional slip.
Fifth: Persist. Establish a healthy lifestyle that works directly against our problem behavior.
Take another quick look at the steps above and remember: clearly define the change you want to make! “A goal properly set is halfway reached.” ~ Zig Ziglar.
It’s only 100 Days: less than 1/3 of the year, 2400hrs. And it’s your life—give it a go!
