For 2014 I will choose 1 new good habit to follow every 2 weeks. By focusing on just one new habit at a time, it can more easily become an old habit that is good for you.
Follow along and join me in adopting 26 good habits in a year! Make the new habit fit you personally if my particular choice doesn’t feel right for you at the given moment.
There is no fail, trying and trying again is doing and that is what leads to success.
New Habit #11 brings us to the first week in June; there’s no better time than to work on strengthening your weaknesses. One big weakness of mine is the regimen of doing a workout every day. As I’ve mentioned in past posts I’m not a fan of the scheduled workout or even going to a gym,…… Continue reading #11 – Strengthen My Weaknesses
My best friend Beth shared this with me several years ago and it pops into my mind often, “If you always think they way you always thought, then you’ll always get what you always got.” This is true. So many people want things to change yet they continue to do things as they always have…… Continue reading #10 – Changing Your Thinking Can Change Your Life
I began practicing yoga a few years ago and while I don’t take a lesson as often as I’d like, I have enough yoga to be able to practice at home daily. After a yoga lesson I always feel calm, renewed and free from negativity. New Habit # 8 is to practice yoga daily. Yoga…… Continue reading Habit #8 – Yoga Daily
I’m still working on #6, reviewing and doing 1-5 as well as an added habit #7, one plate per meal. I am a huge fan of going back for seconds especially if the food tastes good and fresh. I justify my actions by saying it’s healthy, it’s all veggies or lean or whole grains or that…… Continue reading Habit # 7 – One plate is enough
Reviewing things you’ve learned or created is a healthy habit to practice. Often times we set out to do a particular thing but find ourselves halfway committed or falling in and out of practice with it. My intention for this year is to adopt 26 new and good habits and since I’m a little behind in…… Continue reading Habit #6 – Review & Do 1-5
I used to stand up at work all day when I was cutting hair and I loved it; now that my work involves a lot of sitting at the desk I need to get up and move around. Sitting isn’t one of my favorite things to do so I make it a point to get up…… Continue reading Habit # 5 – Get moving every hour
I decided that I need to get moving! Winter is sort of long and messy where I live so walking, cycling, hiking etc. outdoors is a challenge. I decided to invest in an inexpensive stationary bike that both of us (significant other) can use. We did a little research and chose the Schwinn A 10…… Continue reading Habit #4 – Cycling
Ok, my apologies, I missed posting #2 which was using a smaller bowl or plate for meals. For my 3rd new habit I will : continue drinking water continue using a small plate or bowl # 3 – I NEED to take time to be quiet with my thoughts-meditate. My mind has been in a…… Continue reading Habit # 2 & 3
My first new habit of the year 2014 actually sounds quite simple but it isn’t always as easy as it seems. My habit will be to drink more water! Yup, that simple. While I typically drink plenty of water, I find myself drinking less when it’s cold outside. I opt for hot things like coffee &…… Continue reading January 1, 2014 – My 1st New Habit
