Making Improvements to Our Habits

from Lola’s Frugal Life Podcast · host Lola K

Habits are hard to change because usually many of the things we do each day kind of run on autopilot. You don't have to put much thought or effort into your current habits, so it is much easier to do what you have been doing rather than to make changes We become used to doing things a certain way and we just continue to do that. In order to change our behaviors we have to make a continued effort for a significant amount of time to make the habit we are trying to create run on autopilot. There is a wide range of information indicating how long it takes to make a new habit. After doing a quick Google search the first information that came up indicated that it took anywhere from 18 to 254 days to form a new habit. With a range that large, it's really hard to say how long it will take you to develop a habit you are trying to make in your life. But, regardless of how long it takes, changing habits is often hard work. So, what can we do to make changing habits a little bit easier for ourselves? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.lolasfrugallife.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/LolasFrugalLife/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support this podcast:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/lolak/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Check out my Etsy Shop: ⁠⁠⁠⁠LolasFrugalLife - Etsy⁠
