It is a myth that it takes a long time to change. The only reason it takes a long time to change is because you keep doing the same thing over again, knowing what you need to do to change the undesired behavior. If you know that you can’t resist eating a slice of cake when it is in the house…why do you keep buying it? If you know that you have an unpredictable work schedule or are always tired when you get off…why do you insist on putting your workouts off until after work? Any undesired behavior that you want to change will not magically disappear. You actually have to take action everyday to change the behavior. Change is a decision followed by an action. I don’t care how much you wish and pray something to go away, it does not work like that.
Being healthy is a daily choice that we make and no one knows ourselves like we do. People can give you all types of advice for what you should do but only you now how to make that chang in your life. Stop talking and start walking. Remember that today is a new day and you don’t have to be the same person that you were yesterday. God has given you another chance but only YOU can make it what you want it to be.
“If you don’t like something, change it.”-Maya Angelou
