1
Write It Down : Got a goal? Put it on paper. Writing down the habits you want to break will help you process your goals and make a conscious effort to achieve them. Stick the list on your fridge or mirror or keep a note in your phone as a constant reminder.
2
Recruit A Team : ..Or at least a buddy who wants to break a habit, too. It always helps to have someone on hand who knows what you’re going through, even if you’re trying to ditch the 4pm snack attack while they want to give up coffee. Sending supportive messages will remind you to take your own advice.
3
Get Social : Whether you’re going teetotal or cutting out sugar, let the world know. Facebooking and Tweeting your goals, then posting regular updates will keep you on track as you’ll be accountable to a large audience. Plus, you’ll feel a greater sense of pride as your friends watch you make progress
4
Reap The Rewards : It can take up to 21 days to break a habit, so treat yourself to a few rewards along the way. Incentives like a new pair of shoes or a massage to reward your short-term achievements can create positive associations with your goal. 5
Follow The One-Moment Role Staying strong for a day or two is commendable, but what about long-term results? Start at the beginning of a month and create a countdown on your calendar, striking offeach day you achieve your goal. At the end of the month, reward yourself!

One At a Time : Don’t try to kick too many habits at once. In fact, single out one at a time so that you can really focus on the task. If you feel overwhelmed, you’re more likely to throw it in, as your goal won’t seem achievable.
7
Talk To Yourself : Making an effort to have a positive mental attitude about the habit you’re trying to break can help you win the battle when cravings come calling. Rather than saying you can’t have something, remember you’re making a choice to improve your life and tell yourself you don’t want it.
8
Hit The Books : It might sound naff , but a self-help book could give you a boost. Find one that works for you and read it every morning to start your day with the right mindset to continue with your goal
9
Know Your Trigger : Make it easier for yourself to change by cutting out the causes of your bad behaviour. If you tend to inhale a packet of biscuits in front of the TV, remove them from your pantry. Always hitting snooze in the morning? Put your alarm clock well out of reach.
10
Take it easy : If you do cave, don’t call it a day. Take a minute to remember your goals, the encouraging comments from your friends, and your calendar showing your progress. Pick up where you left offand remind yourself that every day is a fresh start
