New Insights trainee life coaches are required to complete extensive practice coaching as part of the certification process. Keep in mind that everyone is different. One small habit may mean nothing to you, but change someone else’s whole life. So, instead of copying other people’s habits, put in the work and figure out which habits would make a huge difference to you. Are any of those habits “super-habits”, such as eating healthy? If so, split them up into smaller, “sub-habits” that you would like to implement. For instance, if you plan on being more physically active, it is not enough to say “I will exercise”. This is not precise enough. Instead, be more specific. For instance, you could decide “I will do 20 push-ups, 20 crunches, and 20 squats”. Now that is specific enough. Be careful here. It’s possible that you choose what I would call a “super-habit” – a habit which is actually composed of many “sub-habits”.

From a young age, Mihret Fikre was fascinated by the planets, transfixed by the enormity of the universe and her unique place in it. In our other article, How Long Does It REALLY Take To Break A Bad Habit? you’ll find that there is no exact science to it. That’s because every habit and person is unique. Also, it seems like how long you need to change a habit has more to do with frequency – how often you have repeated the habit over a certain period – than with a particular number of days or weeks. What’s really difficult when changing a habit is the tension between trying to rationally and consciously understand and change a subconscious behavior. Understanding WHY you do something on autopilot can be difficult, as it is not a conscious decision of yours to act in a certain way. And vice-versa – making sure that a conscious decision to implement a habit becomes an automatic behavior requires work, willpower, and a lot of (successful) repetition. The names of trainee coaches and clients have been excluded to protect and respect confidentiality. However, I would like to assure you that these are all unedited, perfectly genuine and can easily be validated.

For instance, it may take you a few months to automatically go to the gym twice a week, precisely because this habit only happens twice a week. On the other hand, provided you put in the work and focus, you could get over your habit of biting your nails in just a few days or weeks, since this happens several times a day. But as soon as you hold the magnifying glass still and FOCUS the sun’s rays on one single leaf, the whole pile of leaves will ignite into flames. Maybe it’s worth focusing on just 1 habit over a few weeks or months if this means that you will keep it virtually forever? Sources:

To be clear, making a specific plan to implement a new habit works wonders, BUT ONLY if you focus on one thing at a time… 3. Commit In Front Of OthersIt works wonders for me! I talk about the amazing results I’ve achieved thanks to this method so far in this video, maybe you’ll find the idea helpful, too. Those habits are so tiny, that your brain and willpower are enough to sustain them until they become automatic. Your opportunity right now is to realize that you are the magnifying glass in your own life, and that you can intentionally focus the energy you get from the world on one single leaf at a time. When you do so, you will ignite incredible “flames” that move your projects, your dreams, your relationships and even the world around you, forward. (Angel and I discuss this in more detail in the “Goals and Success” chapter of 1,000 Little Things Happy, Successful People Do Differently.) Your turn… To find out which ONE habit you should focus on, first, I suggest you ask yourself the following questions:

I wanted to be an astronomer,” Mihret says, reflecting on her childhood in Addis Ababa. “I liked the idea of spending my days learning about far-off galaxies.” Reminder: If you haven’t done so already, be sure to sign-up for our free newsletter to receive new articles like this in your inbox each week.) I know this can feel frustrating. I struggle often enough to focus just on one thing at a time. That’s also partly because, sometimes, we’re not 100% sure about the habits we are trying to implement. We are just trying stuff out. That’s OK, but once you know what you want, you probably should go all in and focus on this one habit. Why Is It So Difficult To Change Habits?Thanks, dear reader, for taking the time to read this post. I hope it has brought a smile to your face and an appreciation that no matter what you read in the mainstream news, there are people doing wonderful things for others, every day. They only want predictable voters to Changing Lives One Session At A Time Shirt turn out and really don’t want the masses to have a say in the decision-making process. People will say they don’t care but will also complain about things that are directly tied to voting. They just don’t make that connection in their mind. I live in California and I know quite a few people that like to complain about the governor and state laws, or even city laws, yet they have never voted. They also tend to think their vote wouldn’t matter as if we only vote for the president. They don’t consider all the positions and laws people vote for. First, you should take your time to choose the right habit to start with. This step is important because if you doubt that the habit you are trying to implement will have a true impact on your life, you will most probably not be able to be patient enough to follow through and just focus on this one habit for enough time for it to become automatic. It’s important to structure your session in a participatory way,” Mihret says. “Plan a lot of hands-on activities for attendees to feel involved and to get them thinking critically about the topic.” Participants at Mihret’s agribusiness-themed YALILearns session I’m a total different person as the one that started with her a few months ago. I’ve achieved SO much that I never thought I am capable of achieving!! After my time with my coach, I’m looking forward to the future and all that I still going to achieve!! I\’m going to miss her and our sessions SO much but will always be SO grateful for this wonderful opportunity that makes me a much stronger person!!” – A-M.H.

In the great majority of cases, though, the \’newbie nerves\’ soon give way to surprise and elation as the aspirant coaches contemplate the outcome of their efforts and reflect on how well their training prepared them for this step. We’ve recently made it a goal to re-connect with certified coaches and ask them to share a few of the stories of how their coaching efforts have resulted in changing lives for the better. In our experience, exposure to the skills training theory is both eye opening and life changing. But the practice coaching phase takes the training experience to another level. So professional … and I feel like I am onto a different chapter in my life. It has also lead me to be more trusting in myself. She listened, she genuinely cared, she wanted me to help myself and all of it has helped me so much.We now know that it’s best to focus on just ONE HABIT at a time unless the habits you are targeting are so tiny that you can go up to 3 habits at a time. Most trainees – even those who cruise through the theory – find themselves confronted with a serious bout of nerves just prior to embarking on the process of applying their knowledge in real live coaching situations. You’re opening up a new world to them,” Mihret adds. “With your session, you’re introducing them not only to a topic they were unfamiliar with but also to a whole set of careers to pursue.”
