Did you know that it takes at least 7 weeks to effectively form a habit in an adult? When an
activity becomes habitual it usually requires less of our memory and effort.
Habits must work with your lifestyle and your personal body clock. If
you are mentally exhausted after a long day at work, it probably would not be
best to pay your monthly bills at 9 pm. However, if you are a "morning person"
it may be better to work tasks into your schedule like this at 7 am. We can
work together to make a daily, weekly and monthly schedule that makes sense
for you.
ADD
stress can often be self-induced i.e. misplacing keys or cellphone, forgetting
to pay "that bill," or missing an important meeting. Forming habits can stop
the chaos!
Forming
Habits = Less Stress +
Being More Effective
