I would like to take you back to the week of May 18th in regards to establishing good habits in 21 days. It is vitally important that we re-visit messages that are attributing to our FULFILLMENT and PURPOSE. Think of it in this way. Think of all the greatest athletes, do you think that they reached the peak of their greatness by only doing something once? Their greatest accomplisments have been achieved by multiple redundancy in that they practice constantly over and over. They repeat what is required to reach the pinacle. They realize the importance of doing something over and over until they reach their peak and then they go a little further beyond that. They are EXTRA-ORDINARY because they are always willing to do things that ordinary people refuse to do. Tiger Woods, one of the greatest golfers ever, would practice in the pouring rain while others would comfortably be at home. That is what make them winners. The ability to do things that the ordinary person will not do. Which person are you? Take another look at habits in 21 days and truly follow this message, you'll be surprised at what you can do.
Research shows that it takes 21 days to develop a habit. That's 21 days of going to the gym every day or exercising in some way every day, 21 days to meditation, 21 days to eat healthily, 21 days doing, 21 days of anything. When you want to start a habit, don't tell yourself you are doing it for life, tell yourself (your conscious brain) that you are going to try it for 21 days. For example if you want to start the habit of meditating tell your conscious self that you are trying it for 21 days. Now, when you have completed this for 21 days your conscious mind has the choice of stopping it or carrying on, or so it thinks. Your neural pathways have formed already and you will more than likely continue with your new habit, you will have seen the benefits along the way your unconscious will want to continue if it has been beneficial. This can also work when trying to break a habit. When starting or breaking any habit we tend to tell our conscious mind we are going to change and it's for life. Your conscious mind will just say is that right? I'm in charge here, I'll decide' so there will be a battle between your two sides of your conscious mind. If you tell your mind you want to try something for 21 days it won't be so unwilling to co-operate. This might sound a little strange when I say talking to your conscious' as it is your conscious talking to your conscious. We all know we have conversations with ourselves, should I go to the pub should I not, should I go to the gym should I not. There are a hundred conversations we have with ourselves everyday.When we want to start something or give up something, smoking for example, you might normally say to yourself right that's it I'm giving up for good'. Immediately your brain kicks in and says no smoking for life, and then it starts to think of all the situations it likes a good cigarette in; first thing in the morning with a cup of coffee, going out for a drink at night, at work when you're a bit stressed, just after sex etc. Your brain thinks 'lack of' instead of the benefits of. It can't really think as clearly about the benefits because it hasn't yet had the benefits of giving up smoking but it knows the supposed pleasures that smoking brings. So what habits can we start for 21 days?
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted, No silent prayer for the faith-departed, I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd, You're gonna hear my voice, When I shout it out loud [Chorus:] It's my life, It's now or never, I ain't gonna live forever, I just want to live while I'm alive, (It's my life), My heart is like an open highway, Like Frankie said, I did it my way. I just wanna live while I'm alive, It's my life. This is for the ones who stood their ground. For Tommy and Gina who never backed down, Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake. Luck ain't even lucky, Got to make your own breaks [Chorus:], It's my life, And it's now or never, I ain't gonna live forever, I just want to live while I'm alive, (It's my life), My heart is like an open highway, Like Frankie said, I did it my way, I just want to live while I'm alive, 'Cause it's my life, Better stand tall when they're calling you out. Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down [Chorus:] It's my life, And it's now or never, 'Cause I ain't gonna live forever, just want to live while I'm alive, (It's my life) My heart is like an open highway, Like Frankie said, I did it my way, just want to live while I'm alive Chorus:] It's my life, it's now or never, 'Cause I ain't gonna live forever, just want to live while I'm alive, (It's my life), my heart is like an open highway. Frankie said, I did it my way, I want to live while I'm alive, Cause it's my life!
