What I have learned about quitting habits that negatively impact my life:
For me, the most important part of quitting negative habits is coming up with a strong reason “why”. I usually spent time contemplating why I want to make a change and then make sure that this change is aligned with my values. This process helps me to be resolute during those times of temptation and gives me a higher chance of success. For me quitting bad habits is never easy but always so rewarding.
