The Setting Healthy Habits process is designed to be a guide to take you through realistic goal-setting so that you’re more likely to accomplish what you want to do and turn your goals into habits.
Try these tools to build your resilience skills:
1
When will you practice this goal? How much time will you devote to accomplish it? Bonus points: make it S.M.A.R.T. (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound).
2
How would your life look if you accomplished your goal and turned it into a long-term habit? Imagine how that would make you feel.

3
Why haven’t you already accomplished your goal? What kinds of things are getting in the way?
4
What can you change in order to avoid those obstacles? Write out some if/then statements.

How confident are you in your ability to accomplish your goal?
