today's big question comes from Ashley Kay, who asks this,

How long should you work on a habit to get it established?

I'm good at starting something, but I get sidetracked and get out of habit very quickly.

I understand why I should be working to create

better habits. I just can't ever seem to make them stick. What am I missing?

Ashley, I can definitely relate to this struggle and I'm sure a lot of other people probably can too.

Because so many of us, myself included, are so good at starting things.

Whether it's a new diet, a new exercise routine, a new budget, a new work schedule,

a new cleaning schedule, whatever change we want to insert in our lives.

We get super enthusiastic.

We start out all gung-ho.

Maybe we start by wanting to change all sorts of things

all at once.
