I like your post. Yes, to change a habit needs discipline but to change it without discipline is something new to me. But one of your point mention a tangible goal, i believe that should be the way to go. Often people held up too much to their goal and disheartened when not fulfilled.

I appreciate the article but I can’t agree that “discipline doesn’t work”.

And I don’t say this because I’m a monastic ascetic of some sort, but rather because I’ve been teaching at-risk young people boxing for the last 20 years and we’ve found that discipline and will-power are like muscles – they can be developed and strengthened and then provide a firm framework for a productive lfie.

Absolutely amazing article. I have just started reading the book "The Power of full Engagement", and have to start implementing these principles in my life. Tony has another new book in the market called "The way we are working isn't working". Any feedback on that? .-= Kevin´s last blog ..How to Get Your Ex to Call You Back =-.

Hi Mary, something fresh for me is the step no 7, reading more on the habit we want to cultivate. I believe it's the power of focus, when we put our reading habit into the habit we're growing, we can achieve more. Very useful article!

Thanks for the great article! I guess we raise different defenses to change because of our experiences and individual temperments. I love the idea of using positive rituals to make changes more palatable -- connecting a new positive habit to a reward as a kind of spoonful of sugar to make the medicine go down.
