Forming positive habits

It takes 21 to 28 days for new habits to establish. It means whatever change we try to make in our lifestyles, attitude, thinking or behavioral pattern, we need to constantly and consciously repeat and monitored for 21-28 days. Either a new exercise routine, a healthy eating habit or a new thinking pattern, we should commit and stick to it for 28 days. But in the course of our lives, a measly 28 days is well worth the effort in my opinion. If the choice is being miserable for 40 years or constant awareness for 28 days, I take the 28 days gladly. I have done harder things; have sacrificed much more… so what is 28 days in comparison? I can do this!
