A few important facts to remember on reaching goals: It takes 66 days to create a new habit. Using willpower takes as much strength as exerting yourself physically. Help your willpower by being rested and adequately nourished. Every time you say no to the old negative behavior, you are saying yes to the new healthier habit. This does require practice and perseverance, but not perfection. Expect to stumble and make mistakes. Get back up and keep going. Don't let a minor slip or a temporary lack of willpower disrupt your momentum. Keep going. Your new behavior will become a habit and you will be one step closer to achieving your goal. Keep going!
