Getting Habit Guide off the ground is not unlike your health and happiness.
We take steps, we fall, we try again, we crawl for a bit, perhaps even bum shuffle :-) We refocus and try again.
And after a couple of years of falling on our a**, it finally seems we’re standing up. A bit wobbly but hey, we did it!
Just the same really.
So don’t be scared to take action. That’s how you learn…
It’s ironic that it’s often the most intelligent people who are scared to act. There are some folks who just don’t think too far ahead and they don’t see problems — they just do their thing. In my experience, they tend to be happier and sometimes more successful… Read more

Staying motivated over the long-term isn’t always easy, let’s be honest.
You’ve got all those habits and behaviors constantly tempting you back into old ways.
When we feel bad, often our relief is to do something that’s bad for us. So we have a trigger — stress or feeling down linked to some behavior — eating bad food, drinking, smoking… whatever…
These connections can be very strong, which is why change is often difficult.

The truth is that motivation is fed by a number of factors and you have to get as many of these factors on your side, if you want to succeed… Read more
