Don’t underestimate how major a role ENVIRONMENT plays in your daily behaviours and habits!
In fact, most of the people you look at and assume are just way more disciplined than you are probably aren’t!
It’s not that you lack willpower and they have loads of it.
A huge part is that those people don’t expose themselves to the things that tempt you as much as you do.
Think about it…
🍬If you had a bowl of sweets in the middle of your kitchen and you walked past that bowl several times a day, you would be extremely likely to want to pick at the bowl of sweets all day.
You’d find it hard to avoid it!
But if those sweets were in a cupboard that you couldn’t easily reach in a room you don’t often go in, or better still, weren’t even in your house at all….
You wouldn’t even give the sweets a thought!
So…
💭Have a think about some of the things that trip you up time and time again when you’re trying hard to work on your health.
❓Could you make life a bit easier for yourself and set up your environment better?
❓Could you remove some of the food you’re trying to eat less of from your house or even make it less convenient to access it?
❓Could you gain the support of the people you surround yourself with so that they support and encourage you instead of try to tempt you the other way?
❓Could you plan better so there’s less thinking involved during the days when you’re busy and would usually go for a more convenient option?
Let me know what you’re biggest struggle is when trying to work on your health 👇🏻
