We all have a bad habit or two, whether it’s smoking, gambling, overeating, overspending, being a couch potato, or not being supportive enough to a partner, spouse, co-worker, or friend.
Choose one bad habit and work on changing it this year. And remember this advice from experts:
• To talk yourself out of a bad habit, you have to think about now and later. “If I eat these French fries now, I’ll feel good. But I won’t feel good later. If I don’t eat these fries now, I’ll see the payoff later.”
• Take it one day at a time. You may backslide, and that’s OK. Learning new habits takes time. Unlearning bad habits takes time as well.
