The Key To A Better Life: Creating Positive Habits
You can improve your life by incorporating positive habits step by step
A habit, according to Dictionary.com, is "an acquired behavior pattern regularly followed until it has become almost involuntary"; "a particular practice, custom, or usage".
A positive habit, therefore, it's an acquired positive behaviour or action.
It is actually quite easy to create good habits.
The problem lies in that we do not have a plan, a structure or any idea of how to go about it, so "I want to exercise more often" stays in wishful thinking.
Here are some good habits that you may like to have:
- Exercising
- Feeling calm and getting rid of anxiety
- Eating healthy
- Feeling better about yourself
- Being thankful
- Being organised
- Meditating
- Having a positive attitude
You can add to your life any habit, if you are consistent enough to take a few actions repeatedly for a specific amount of time.
Lasting positive habits, not temporary fixes
You create steady habits by repeating a certain beneficial action during a certain period of time, with a plan to support you on achieving what you want.
Performing an action once or twice in a long span of time does not make a habit and won't result in any noticeable benefits.
Find out here how you can start making good habits and effect positive changes.
30 days
You only need 30 days to create a new habit.
I tried several ways of creating the habit of exercising, but I used to give up by the fifth day (yes, that quickly, despite all my good intentions). With a 30-day plan, however, I was successful.
The SMART technique of setting goals combined with a 30-day plan helped me to establish a variety of habits, including meditating and exercising daily.

Another excellent technique to acquire new habits effortlessly is using kaizen positive thinking - positive thinking in small steps.
You can make positive thinking one of your good habits and enjoy a better quality of life, starting with the habit of repeating phrases.
I've got it!
Unfortunately, in regards to positive thinking, you can never say that "you've got it", and then you feel positive forever and ever.
Rather, life is a journey and we are always growing. You won't be able to avoid negative circumstances and difficulties.
The good news is that you can make positive thinking a habit to help you face life in a fuller, courageous and positive way.
You can learn how to become a positive person.

You can help yourself when creating beneficial habits by using the best positive quotes and positive phrases for the day.
