If you want to grow your business in 2020 and keep your New Year’s Business Resolutions, you’re going to have to figure out a way to develop new habits and practices. Many people want the end result of a habit, but don’t want to do the work to create a new habit. Whether it’s exercising, getting more sleep, saving money or another good habit you want to learn, you want the benefit of the new habit – a healthier body, less mentally exhausted, more money in the bank.
But wanting the benefit of a new habit does not always equate to a willingness to put in the work to learn a new habit. The question is,
How bad do you want it?
21/90 Rule for New Habits
There are many tricks and #lifehacks to build a new habit. A popular strategy to develop new habits is called the 21/90 rule. Commit to a personal or professional goal for 21 straight days. After three weeks, the pursuit of that goal should have become a habit. Once you’ve established that habit, you continue to do it for another ninety days. By then, enough time should have passed that your new rule has become a habit.
