But in real life, having new habits is not easy. We have already lost count of how many times you try and you can not change the old habits.

If you have started to investigate, scientists say that to acquire a new habit it will take about 21 days. Others, with more recent studies, say that they are not 21 days, but 63, and even, there will be some who refute affirming that three months are needed.

The truth, steemian, is that to acquire a new habit, you can do it in an instant.

"What? How? What are you saying, Thomas? "

If you do not achieve or take a long time to change your habits, it is because your subconscious does not believe it is important enough to make extra efforts.

The customs, doing activities that are known and became routine, means a huge energy saving for the brain. We are biologically directed by a primitive, basic brain, which the experts in the field call "reptilian brain", that what matters is that we stay alive.

What you want does not take it into account. If you have managed to stay alive with what you have, why change it? The reptilian brain, is a cheapskate with the expenditure of energy.

It is thrifty because when we were in formation as a species, it was not easy to find food. What do you do when you have a water shortage? You spend as little as possible, you bathe in drops.

As we already know why the brain refuses to expend energy in the effort it would take to acquire a new habit, you will understand that to invest a little energy in a new task, it must be truly true, important.

For the brain, it is worthless if you want to exercise in the mornings because the belly is already beginning to be noticed. He refuses to maintain your new exercise routine for what we have already talked about.

To convince him, there is a trick.

First, the subconscious cares for everything that produces emotion. I mean, what captures your attention, what disturbs you physiologically just by thinking about it.

If it does not cause emotion, the subconscious ignores it.

That is why we see people who manage to maintain an enviable rhythm when they propose something. They can get excited by having clear reasons why they initiate changes in their lives.

They concentrate, they focus on the awards, the results encourage them, they move the heart.

But imagine, returning to the example of the morning exercises, that the enthusiasm be produced by someone who encourages you, or was an impulse that caused you to do something different.

That is lukewarm, and does not justify the effort.

Do you want a new habit? You must convince the subconscious.

Be excited, earn it with your enthusiasm. That's right, as the best sellers do, they put a lot of enthusiasm, that's contagious.

Apalancate with people who encourage you, watch videos that activate your hormones, imagine the rewards that you will have when you achieve the habit you want.

If you just say, "I want to lower 10 Kg, this fatness bothers me", that does not excite anyone.

Once you find a goal that excites you, you will put a minimum of compliance.

"How is that, Thomas?" You will ask me.

I'll explain it to you. There will be days that will not cause you to do anything, but if you want a new habit, perseverance is the key. Failing a day is fatal.

Then, you tell yourself, "instead of running 30 minutes, for today, the best way is only 10 minutes".

Now you know how to face laziness. She is always on the lookout. Laziness is not lazy, not at all. Your perseverance is legendary.

I am telling you a secret that will save you from losing your perseverance.

Whoever stays constant in his goal will achieve it.

And whoever manages to change their habits at will, will be master of himself.

Because habits, good or bad, as Og Mandino said, are our masters.

What are you going to do now, friend steemian?

Apply these strategies, and so you can get what you propose.
