Dealing with Cravings or Breaking Bad Habits

A “craving” or a “bad habit” is some little thing you’ve done a bunch of times in the past and are struggling not to do today.

Here’s the trick. Focus on today.

Everything you’ll ever accomplish is one-day-at-a-time. Focus only on making the right decision today. The reward for doing this is that it will be even easier tomorrow!

Keep in mind you don’t necessarily have to completely eliminate a behavior to be victorious. For example, simply doing “10% less” can be a huge victory. Not eating an entire carton of ice cream for example is still a victory (personal example, luckily I live somewhere Tillamook is hard to find).

SO, the key is to keep in mind that if you make the right choice, or choose a slightly different behavior today, in the direction of your goal, then the next day it will be even easier.

In this way you continue to focus on Progress Over Perfection,

And enjoy Victory Today and Easier Tomorrow!
