Identify Your Bad Habits

Before we can change our habits, we need to think about some things first. Is your habit good enough? Is your habit bad for your own health and safety? They may be simple questions, but they are important for you when you are trying to change your habits.

For example, have you done enough sports for yourself? Have you had healthy foods every day to balance your nutrition? If you think you haven’t done any of these, maybe you need to change your habits for real.

As a result, you need to think about which habits you need to change. You should never do habits that are not beneficial for your own goals. Therefore, by knowing which habits you have to change or not, you can start changing those bad habits for real! So, what can we do to change our old routine activities?

Hack Your Routine

Routine activities are things that we do every day routinely. Because we do them every day, it is now hardwired into our brain. This routine slowly becomes a schedule in your daily lives because you have to do that every day. As a result, finding new things to do can be quite hard for you.

For example, you’ve been used to not doing sports every day. Because of that, you get sick easily because your body is weak and never trained. Not to mention, an unhealthy diet makes your body easier to get sick because of your unhealthy daily habit.

Because of that habit, it can be difficult for you to change your routine after doing it for so long. To hack your routine, you can start doing new things instead of the things that you do every day. By doing these new things every day, you can start having a new habit from yourself. As a result, you are now closer to your goal to be a better person!

Find New Habits!

After we identified our bad habits, we can start looking for some new hobbies. For example, aside from eating junk food every day, you can start eating healthy foods that are richer in vegetables. Because eating junk food every day is not good for you, you need to change into eating healthier foods.

To find new habits, you can read self-help books or the internet to look for tips. The internet is full of habit hack tips websites, such as this and this. Because of that, you have so many options for you in case you’re interested in finding new hobbies.

Moreover, you can start small when changing your habits. You don’t have to aim big in the first place to make sure that your new habit is successful. Doing it slowly as a routine can change your past bad habits. Moreover, you can probably have good new habits from doing that!

Self-Reward Yourself for Your New Habits

Finding new habits is not good enough. If you don’t do it every day, it’s not going to be your new routine. As a result, you must commit yourself into doing these good new habits every day if you want to be a better person. If you don’t do it, it’s just going to be another unfulfilled promise. Moreover, you can’t be a better person if you don’t commit to those new habits.

For example, you’ve managed to start doing sport every day. Usually, you’re doing sports for 15 minutes. To increase your intensity, you can increase the time into 30 minutes. Moreover, you can use more sporting tools such as barbell and treadmill as your tools for doing sports.

Adapting these new habits can be difficult. Because temptations to return to your old habits are always there, it can be hard for you to do it. As a result, there are some things you can do to adapt to your new habits. Self-rewarding yourself after committing into new habits is a good way to make sure that you’ll like these habits. As a result, you’ll feel more rewarded if you can adapt to these new habits.
