New Study: Why You Can’t Get Healthy Habits To Stick (+ How To Fix It)

Are you finding it difficult to stick to new habits, no matter how badly you want to? New research from Health Psychology on habit forming provides new answers as to why this might be the case. From this research, there are four main reasons why people fail to stick to the habits they want to build. I’m going over all four, and providing tips and tricks to help you avoid the common pitfalls. When we try to build habits, how badly we want to have new habits has very little to do with whether we tend to pick up new habits successfully. This is because of something called the Intention-Behavior Gap, and understanding exactly why we have this gap can help us fix it.  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?
