POWER
OF
HABITS.
28DAYSCLUB
WHY 28?
The 28 day rule states that it generally takes 28 days to create a new habit. Meaning that the first 3 to 4 weeks of performing a new task is often the hardest. Only once you cross that 3 or 4 week period do things start to get easier as the task then becomes a habit.
Habits are the actions you take everyday, whether conscious or subconscious. How you live your life is at the mercy of your habits, with your habits shaping your daily life. The actions you take on a daily basis create your personality and your beliefs.
BUILDING YOUR HABITS
BUILDING
Plan for Chaos
- ATOMIC HABITS
Let’s say that you have a goal that you want to stick to consistently. For example, working out three times per week or meditating for five minutes each morning.
If everything goes as planned, then sticking to your goal isn't too difficult. If you wake up on time, then you should have the extra five minutes to meditate in the morning. If rush hour traffic isn't bad, then you should be able to make it to the gym before going to your kid's performance tonight.
Basically, if there aren't any unexpected interruptions, then it just comes down to getting started.
But when life gets busy and chaos starts to happen, that's when we start to come up with excuses. Phrases like “I wasn't expecting X to happen…” start creeping into your life and you end up pushing off the goals that you said were important.
The chaos and unpredictability of life is one of the factors that makes sticking to your goals difficult. Which brings us to the important questions…
How can you stay consistent when day-to-day life is so unpredictable? How can you plan for chaos?
Product of your environment.
Your beliefs, values, mood, attitude, mannerisms, habits… You become exactly what you surround yourself with, it is a human inevitability that you will be influenced by your surroundings, which is why it is important to choose who you surround yourself very carefully.
And this is exactly why one of 28daysclub key offerings is making events accessible for likeminded people to enjoy and build relationships with one and another.
