How to Make Good Habits
"It's easy to decide to change, but harder to make that change feel normal." Trent Hamm gives tips on how to turn good intentions into new good habits.
“First, a radical life change is easier if there is just one simple rule to follow. Don’t spend money this weekend. Eat plants. Play a game each evening. Read two books a week. A very simple rule is very simple to follow. Second, the simple rule is tied closely to something I truly want to change in my life. I want to be healthy over the long haul. I want to be in financially good shape. These are strong central desires for my life, and because they’re strong, they trump the other shorter-term desires I have. Third, the things I like or immediately desire are often influenced heavily by what I’ve been doing and thinking about recently.”
