Healthy Living Tips Inspired By The Book The Power of Habit

April 19, 2019 Sharon

I have been on a healthy living journey since 1990, almost 30 years! I have counted calories, I have cut out carbs and I have walked away pounds. I have also gained the weight back once those diets and routines stopped. I had weight-loss surgery to help me loss weight and to hopefully keep it off for good. At present I find myself needing to lose again, definitely 20lbs. to feel comfy in my clothes, then another 33lbs. to hit 160lbs. which was my pre lap-band surgery weight loss goal, down 100lbs. from my highest 260lbs.

The book The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business By Charles Duhigg was on my 2019 must read books for 2019 and upon finishing the book I had some AHHHH HAAAA moments about my habits, my willpower, my triggers and my ques.

Check-out the quotes that I found very motivational!

Inspired The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business By Charles Duhigg

Once you know a habit exists, you have the responsibility to change it . . . others have done so . . . That, in some ways, is the point of this book. Perhaps a sleep-walking murderer can plausibly argue that he wasn’t aware of his habit, and so he doesn’t bear responsibility for his crime, but almost all of the other patterns that exist in most people’s lives — how we eat and sleep and talk to our kids, how we unthinkingly spend our time, attention and money — those are habits that we know exist. And once you understand that habits can change, you have the freedom and the responsibility to remake them. Once you understand that habits can be rebuilt, the power of habit becomes easier to grasp and the only option left is to get to work.
