Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what gets you going.
If there is anything in 2020-2021 besides the global COVID-19 pandemic, it will be what this period symbolizes - a time when people understood what really matters in life. Many realized that taking care of one's overall health is tantamount to real wealth.
People will usher in 2022 with bigger hopes and brighter perspectives. If you have resolved to become a better version of yourself, the key is to engage in self-care and personal development activities as part of your daily lifestyle. John Maxwell could not have said it any better: "You'll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine."
Why is it important to track habits?
