Knowing what to do and doing what you know are two entirely different things. We can read the books and attend all of the latest seminars but when it is all said and done, it’s not what we know that will bring us success it’s what we do; on autopilot.
Throughout our life we have been creating habits and our habits have created the life we now live. Successful habits work together to create life and poor habits work together to destroy it. Wisdom is not simply knowing this; it is doing whatever it takes to strengthen the successful habits and to destroy the poor ones.
Developing habits take time; breaking old habits and developing new ones may take even longer. We know we should exercise more, eat healthier, quit smoking, develop our financial IQ and learn how to control our anger but we don’t. Geez, why did I just eat 4 donuts? I can’t believe I lost my temper again! I really should learn how to manage my time better…. yada, yada, yada. Can I get an amen?
If you really want to change your habits and create a better life you must accept the fact that you cannot do it on your own and that you need help; after all, if you could have changed yourself, you would have by now right?
Here are a few tips that will help you succeed in breaking bad habits.
