I love your videos. Here's the thing about changing habits. It's only a very small amount of people that can focus on changing habits, implement it into their daily living and making it a lifelong process. The process is as follows - you have a thought, when you attach a meaning to that though, you will have emotions and feelings. When you have the same thought, same emotions and feelings for weeks, it becomes an attitude, have it for longer, it becomes actions and habits, and eventually it becomes a person's identity and then the thought process starts again - this is a mechanism, a neurological, physiological process that happens in our body. Many people focus on trying to change habits, whereas the focus should really be on changing the meaning of the thought. If you change the meaning of the thought, it HAS to give you a different emotion, feeling, in turn a different attitude and in turn different habits. It's a physiological mechanism - it will happen. The insights you've gain through this process, are a big win for you!

This is incredible!! Thank you so much for breaking habit formation down. Being where I am now in my relationship with sugar, it make so much sense.

I have been working with the card deck setting up my daily’s, weekly, monthly. I’ve also included the twelve week plan for personal and business mgt. my clients think I’m already organized more than they are, lol the secret is I’m not emotionally attached to their stuff so that helps me greatly. OCD. People have a greater need for tactile. Touchy feely you’re in control of it. I’m a control freak. Don’t look so down on yourself. It’s a process. You can do it!

Especially loved the affirmations and the pocket-sized vision board.

Thank you, I need to focus on my wellness and fitness journey, so maybe a index card method and habit tracker would work!

So your video made me think about habit formation (especially in me). I could hear the disappointed in yourself as you reviewed the weeks. BUT! At the end of the 12 weeks you did see successes. Maybe not in every habit. You had a lot of habits you were trying to establish. This is exactly what I do too. These are my take aways from this video. 1. I want to cram too much into too little time. When I make my first 12 Week Year, I need to make it, then go back and divide it into 3, 12 Week Years. I will not work on all the goals I want that calendar year, but I bet Ill have better success that sticks. 2) If you or I had a little bird record what we were doing the 12 weeks before we started an intentional 12 Week Year we'd probably be getting scores of 10%-20%. So getting scores of 50% when we first start being intention is winning!!! We are better than we were! Chin up, ducky!! You got this! The 2nd 12 Week Year can be even better!😊

Oh my goodness, I wish I had that little bird around late last year, wouldn't that have been great! You are so right. It might not have been 80%, but it was much better than where I was at.

Now that I’m traveling again and school has started again it’s impossible to walk 20k a day… Life is difficult sometimes. Thank you for all the motivation!

Thanks so much for sharing your journey. I've been wanting to do a 12 week year similar to yours but keep planning and researching instead of actually implementing 🙃 Do you think you'll put these cards up on Etsy?

My plan is to eventually do a weight loss bundle with options for different ways of using the cards to lose weight for some flexibility in planning. Having the dates planned out on the calendar for 2024 has been a big help for me, because I can so easily get stuck in the consuming information stage too.

Can you share what books you're reading for cutting sugar? I know i need to make similar changes 😩

I read Allen Carr's Good Sugar Bad Sugar and am going through Wendy Speake's 40 Day Sugar Fast book now. Wishing you the best in making the change!!

You have a habit tracker it’s in your writing and logging. Stop looking down on yourself.

Are you getting active or trying to lose weight?

I’m planning on doing both, I want to improve my food choices and at the same time grow my time for movement. I concentrated so much on my new job as a teacher and on my projects that I totally forgot about my health. Congrats on no sugar in Disneyland ❤

I’ve given up on losing weight, because after years of exercising and being active I didn’t lose anything. So now my mindset is to be active so I can do the things I enjoy doing, like hiking.

I’ve been getting active and losing weight in the process. I can’t afford a gym right now but lifting and move the excess stuff around and hauling it to the trash and dumping it. Donating things I can and giving back the things I borrowed over the years that got shoved back saying I’ll do it next time. This Has helped I’m doing this slow and steady. It didn’t happen overnight it’s going to take diligence and effort but I’ve found that giving myself permission, to have failures, stumbles, and mountains to climb, is proving that the long term will be worth it. I love how you’ve incorporated time for self examinations, now give yourself permission to hug yourself , appreciate what you have grown over the years. Enjoy life, it’s so fleeting . Children won’t stay young for ever, but then neither will you. If I haven’t thanked you yet, the twelve week year book incorporated in the S . H. E. Card-file is wonderful. I use it for my projects personal and business mgt. I also use this method for my clients in that I’ve created a smaller version of the card file for each one it helps me keep my notes and I can refer to them so I’m not over taxing my brain. It allows me to think clearly on one subject and move on. The one thing I did do is stop looking so intently at the past. It’s over and done you can’t change it but you can affect the outcome of it by making amends giving others the chance to have failures ,too.
