Step #2 Try to understand what is holding your bad habit



Course: Mindset - Time for Change: Secrets reveal ways to help create good habits

Goal: Get rid of bad Habits
Description:

For example, the issue of smoking or excessive consumption of food: perhaps you lack some interesting content and activities to improve your mood and to replace the existing bad habits. For some people this represents facing with their own boredom or the apathy and dissatisfaction, which is compensated in this way. Activate yourself in those things that you like, and connect with others. Some of bad habits just make us feel good, and are therefore repeated. Seek for yourself the replacement that is medically or socially acceptable.

Some of our bad habits provide us with temporarily freedom from stress. Some of their causes are actually in a social setting. If your friends do not point to the fact that you are constantly late, you will never know the reason why should you change. These habits are going to find their reinforcement in the social environment. For example, a person who is late for a meeting becomes loaded with colleague’s information about what she had missed so far, thus getting her five minutes of attention and reinforcement to continue with such dramatic entry and delay.

I just don't know - am not an early riser. I am often late because of this reason. I  just cant get it right or find a reason why I still can't give up on it.
