What’s This About?
Long-term habit change happens when you shift your identity to align with your new behaviors. Seeing yourself as the kind of person who embodies your habit increases consistency.
Activities:
- Write a short statement reinforcing your new identity (e.g., “I am a person who exercises daily.”)
- Practice saying your identity statement aloud or writing it down each morning.
Why Is This Important?
When you believe you are the kind of person who follows through, maintaining the habit becomes effortless.
Chris Thomas Notes:
Identity shapes behavior. Becoming the type of person who does the habit makes it stick.
