In this article I provide my viewpoint of the acquiring of habits -- of how, perhaps counter intuitively, it is not more difficult to acquire an outstanding habit than it is to make brushing your teeth a habit. Read on, to know what I am talking about - and use this mindset to acquire all the habits you need to reach success and, hopefully, have a great career. I hope you have a good read!
Get great habits. Or are they already great? is it hard to get amazing habits? No. That is, I would guess, the thing that to the highest degree keeps people from acquiring awesome habits - the belief that it is very difficult. What is the difference between making it a habit to brush your teeth, and making it a habit to push yourself 100% in your workouts? None. There is no difference. It is a new action that you do over and over until it becomes natural - just as brushing your teeth was at the time when you were learning how to do that, and acquiring teeth brushing as a habit. There is nothing more to it.
Obviously, when you stand there in front of the weights - with the thoughts "I can never do this.." - just remember that a habit is a habit. And that IS a fact. Your body, and your mind unconsciously, will get used to doing what you do repeatedly - and there is nothing you can do about that.
If you still doubt this, consider this... your genes are the end product of a billion years of constant -- and I mean CONSTANT -- trial and error. It is the end product... of a billion years. A billion years. If all people in New York City had lived after each other - in consequent generations - and everyone lived to be a hundred years old, that still would not cover all the time that your genes have been around, and tested. Tested how often? All the time! So, with this information in your mind, are you adaptable enough to make something amazing your habit? Or, to put it differently, to make a new action your habit. You are, are you not?
I hope this mindset helps you to realize dreams, reach success and have a cool career! I sincerely wish you success in using this method. Good luck.
