Healing Words 6.11.2018

When we decide to make a change, we usually decide to change everything (think about the last time you made New Year's Resolutions). The problem is that strategy rarely works. We're creatures of habit and not wired to overhaul everything at once. That's why I like this plan...add one thing at a time, reach mastery, and then add something else. It works because when you start small you're more likely to see success which motivates you to keep going. Don't overwhelm yourself with too much change at one time. In the long run you'll do better if you change one habit at a time.
