Creating new habits isn’t always easy. It’s hard to stay motivated especially within today’s climate. The best piece of advice that can be offered in this situation is to remember that you only have to work hard for about a month. It takes about 21 days to form a habit, so after those 21 days are up, that resolution becomes second nature. From then on your resolution is embedded into your routine. Set aside some time to invest in a good habit, it will be worth it. Happy New Year!
