Habits and Goals Together
You might be wondering what you’re supposed to do if you want to change certain habits but you really haven’t given any thought to whether or not they attach to goals you have. What if you just know that you procrastinate too much and that’s a habit you’d like to stop? Is the desire to change that bad habit attached to any sort of goal?
I’d argue that that absolutely is attached to goals you have. Procrastination is a bad habit. It’s preventing you from earning more money. It’s harming your business or stopping you from getting raises and promotions. It’s harming your reputation and it’s making it harder for you to be happy with your own performance.
Habits don’t exist in a vacuum. You don’t like them or despise them for their own sake. When you examine them further, it becomes a lot clearer why you really want to change them. There are clear, measurable goals inside you that you need to pull out and understand, so you can understand your habits.
