If you want to be happier this year focus on your habits. Create a clear and beautiful vision of your future. Then create habits to support that vision. Small simple actions towards your goals...consistently and persistently done. Pick one action....do it everyday...see how it transforms over time. Like compound interest- tiny and consistent actions become powerful habits.
Habits are like compound interest. At first it doesn't seem like much
The easiest way to add a new habit is to hook it up with an already established habit. A Trigger habit: A task or activity you already have to do and have been doing long enough that it is habitual. Such as waking up, washing dishes, riding in the car, eating or even washing your face. Our simple daily activities are a gold mine when it comes to creating a natural space and rhythm to nourish a new habit.
You want to have more energy? Improve your breath. Everytime you engage in a household chore, start with taking 5 long slow deep breaths. Stand tall, smile and relax your shoulders, come back to present for 5 breathes or even 5 minutes. As you vacuum, as you wash dishes, as you shop, as you clean... you practice breathing. This tiny practice becomes fertile ground to uplift your life.
Home care is a rich space to create new habits and up shift deeply imbedded unhealthy habits.
Goals need legs to survive. Cultivate your dreams and vision in your habits
