The 21/90 rule: Commit to a personal or professional goal for 21 straight days. Once you’ve established that habit, you continue to do it for another ninety days. If you can keep up something for three weeks and then ninety days, then it should become a permanent lifestyle change.
Staying Positive Every Day
Find one notable positive thing in every day and write it down
- You can write down more than one thing a day, but you only need one at the minimum
- Once you’ve done that, keep it up for three months and you’ll start seeing more positive things to write down
Find three things in your life that you feel need the most help
Focus on one at a time
- Work on the one that is most important to you first
- Always do something to try and bring you closer to your goal
- At the end of the three weeks and ninety days, you can move onto the next thing, then repeat the process
Find a task that brings you joy for just five minutes a day
Escape time needs to be short and sweet enough that it doesn’t take away from other pursuits and responsibilities
- Try and find something that takes you only five minutes or maybe ten minutes each day, but that is something you can look forward to each and every day
