Unfortunately,while identifying(识别) our bad habits is easy,changing them is not.Here are some tips to help you develop good habits to achieve your goals.
1. Identify Your Bad Habits
You should be able to understand your own
behavior and how they can either help or
hinder(阻碍)your success.To help you out,
think about how others act and about how
you react.Then identify those actions that
anger,upset,or annoy you.
2. Write Them Down
Once you have identified the behavior you
wish to improve,write them down on a piece
of paper.Choose one,two at most,and focus
only on those.Make notes about them,and
post those notes in prominent(显眼的) places
to serve as a constant reminder to you to
correct your behavior in those areas.
3. Live for Today
Try not to think of what you have to do
tomorrow,next week,or next month.
Instead,focus on what you are doing right
now.Give each person you deal with your
undivided attention,and try not to let other
aspects of your life interfere(打扰).
4. Seek Help
Let your family and friends know about the
changes you wish to make in your life.Ask
Them _____ .Sometimes learning to accept advice is a new habit in and of itself.By receiving advice from people you trust,you will be able to learn whether or not you will be successful in building new habits. Change is
not easy.It takes effort,hard work,and determination. As you begin to build new habits, you will need to think about them constantly to prevent the old habits from taking over. With time and practice,you will have developed new behavior that can lead you to success.
