To form a new habit can be challenging. This requires awareness, persistence, clarity, and stoic.
If you decide to form a new habit, you will need be clear why you want to have it, how to get there, what would be the result of it.
Early stage of starting a new habit can be exciting. You are pumped up and start your new journey.
The hard part is after you practice the habit for a little while, say, a month later. You may enter to a stage of sluggish, or confusion. Because this is where your old habit begins to fight with your new habit.
Your old habit may be stronger and nastier, you may lose your battle if you give up to your old “friend”. Or you can become tougher and clearly know what you want and where you wan to be, so you will head on the challenge, get bruises, sore muscles, and end up with new stronger muscles, therefore new habit.
When you decide to form a new habit, you have made an option to grow new muscles. Be prepared mentally and physically. You will be there.
