Chapter 14: New Habits, New Life!
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
Aristotle It takes about 21 days to implement a new habit. About 2500 years ago,
the Greek philosopher Aristotle said that you change your life by changing your
habits.
The coaching process is, in its essence a process of changing the
client’s habits over time by introducing new ways of doing things
and
substituting old behaviors. The most important step in the process of changing
your habits is to become aware of them! Did you hear the saying that
If you
keep doing what you are doing you will keep getting the results you are
getting?
Einstein himself defined the
purest form of insanity as "doing the
same things over and over, expecting a different result".
Is this you? Don't worry and go on reading!
If you want different results in
your life then you have to start doing things differently.
You can change this
and it's relatively easy if you put in some work and discipline. Develop habits
that steer you towards your goals. If you do that-success in your live is
guaranteed. Here are some examples of “bad” habits that might be good to get
rid of: being constantly late, working late, eating junk food, procrastinating,
interrupting while somebody else is talking, being a slave to your phone,
etc.
Our goal in this chapter is to introduce 10 new healthy daily habits into your life
within the next three months. I don’t want you to be overwhelmed, so why not
introduce three habits each month? With time these habits will improve your life
considerably and they will substitute ineffective habits which until now have
drained your energy.
