1. Commit to Thirty Days
A month is a good block of time to commit to a change since it easily fits in your calendar.
If you can make it through the initial conditioning phase, it becomes much easier to sustain.

3. Start Simple
Don’t try to completely change your life in one day.
It is easy to get over-motivated and take on too much.

7. Form a Trigger
A trigger is a ritual you use right before executing your habit.

8. Replace Lost Needs
If you are giving up something in your habit, make sure you are adequately replacing any needs you’ve lost.

9. Be Imperfect
Don’t expect all your attempts to change habits to be successful immediately.
