21 Days to Break a Bad Habit!

OK, Here we are, DAY 21!  21 Days to Break a Bad Habit.  And I did it!  I broke that bad habit!

The benefits of breaking THAT particular bad habit?  Let's see, I have about $300 more in just 21 days.  I weigh about 9 pounds less.  I think that's a full size smaller!

 

I did all the steps.  I told friends, I got accountability partners, I replaced my bad habit with good habits.  And here it is:  Day 21.  No more bad habit.  It was THAT easy! Actually, it was broken after 3 days; and I enjoyed the company of my accountability partners so much that I continued on.  I shall probably continue on indefinitely.

 

So, now, I'm looking around, saying, what other Bad habit can I break???  One Down.  Just 9,999 to go.  OK, maybe that's a slight exageration.  Very slight.

 

Could I break the bad habit of keeping a messy car?  You know what that's like; you go to a networking meeting, people hand you stuff, you put it in the passenger seat, throw your water bottles behind the driver seat.  And VOILA!  MESSY CAR! (This is not a pic of MY car; My daughters are out of the Juicy Juice Stage.)

I have the systems in place to keep my car tidy; wonder if I could utilize those systems for 21 days to keep my car tidy?  How can I get my new Mercedes if I don't take care of what I have.   Any takers for an accountability partner?

 

Could I break the bad habit of not implementing the learnings from the seminars I attend?  ANY one of the seminars I've attended could make me a multi-millionaire, if only I would be consistent in applying them.  It's like money, flying out the window!

Any takers there for an accountability partner to IMPLEMENT learnings?

 

And we could just have a 21 Days to a New Undertaking accountability group.  I actually like that idea.  Because my bad habit may not be YOUR bad habit.  And we could just have successive "new undertakings"!  Progress, not perfection!

It's true..they say stick with something for 21 days and it becomes habit. So, if I start tomorrow on a regular gym schedule, bu June 4th it should be common practice for me and help me feel better and have more energy!

Thanks for the motivation Cindy!

I'm on it!

Debra, thank you.   Don't know which bad habit I shall pick next; the car may be too challenging!  But Oh, I feel so good when my car is clean!  Go Thom!!!  We can cheerlead for each other! 

I don't do the gym; and I can understand why you would, living in Atlanta.  It's SWELTERING there.  Here in Orange County, as long as I'm finished m hike before 9, the temperature is still cool.

Just 21 days to a whole new way of life?!   That's awesome.  Congratulations on keeping your car clean.  But, I thought your bad habit was going to be something much tougher to break like cigarette smoking.

Actually, Karen, I'm looking for the NEXT bad habit to break, considering keeping my car clean.  The other bad habit was a tougher one.  Someday, I might share what it was, and I'm not ready yet!
