Did you know that it only takes about 3 weeks (21 days) to develop a habit? If you keep it up for 6 months, there’s a good chance it will just become part of who you are. We may have spent many years doing an unhealthy habit but it is very possible to change it for the better with high motivation and determination.
Goal setting is an easy way to make a desired habit part of your daily routine. By setting small, achievable goals, you are more likely to obtain a healthy habit. The best goals follow the acronym S.M.A.R.T.
Specific- Look at the who, what, when, where, which, why of your goals.
Measurable- Establish criteria for reaching your goals to help you track your progress.
Attainable- When you make your goals, think about how you can make them happen.
Realistic- Your goals should be feasible and you must be willing and able to work towards them.
Timely- Set a time frame you would like to reach your goals to keep motivation high.
