Diet and Budgets!

Budgets and diets. Two entities that require self discipline to be successful at. One problem-lack of self control---- two different entities-sticking to a budget and following a diet plan.

So how does one one change any behavior that they do not like or want to have anymore?
  • Have measurable and track able goals
  • Possess the desire and will to change
  • Need for accountability
  • The desire to change must be stronger than the compulsion to regress and fall back into the old patterns of behavior that just don't work anymore.
  • Cultivate and keep a positive mental attitudeExtend forgiveness to yourself when you make a mistake because no body is perfect
  • Never QUIT, because quitters never win!
