Six Keys to Changing (casi) Anything!

We humans are creatures of habits, 95% of what we do is "habitual". Therefore, the most we ritualize the easier it is to make that a change lasts. Here are 6 useful steps:

1. Be Highly Precise and Specific. You want to do something new? Tell yourself exactly what it is what you want to do!
2. Take on one new challenge at a time. We're not robots, let's go step by step.
3. Not too much, not too little. You have to be comfortable with your new challenge.
4. What we resist persists. Avoid temptations, don't think about what you have to do, just do it.
5. Competing commitments. Fokuss on what is important for you and what you do to get it.
6. Keep the faith! Nobody said it was going to be easy, you're just with yourself out there, be strong!
