new year's resolution and habit

it's new year. plenty are sharing their resolution. making new resolutions are kinda fun but don't forget that keeping them is what really matters.

so, how do we keep 'em, these inspiring resolutions?

it's good to know that we're all creatures of habit. so, try cultivating habits that support our resolution. it'd make everything a lot easier.

if ur new resolution is to be slimmer or lose 10 kg, then what kinda habits should u form to help make this resolution a reality? let's look at a simple example.

RESOLUTION
lose 10kg

HABIT
1. habit of eating one plate of rice at every meal, regardless of delicacy, regardless.
2. habit of spending at most 5 minutes to eat. this way, u won't think about eating more.
3. habit of walking 20 minutes every evening to increase metabolism and shed that extra fat.

we better start building those habits. experts say that we need at least 30 days to do this. so start small and focus only on one habit at a time for at least 30 days to make it stick.


Daripada Aisyah ra,  Nabi Muhammad SAW bersabda:
“Wahai manusia lakukanlah amalan mengikut keupayaan kamu. Sesungguhnya Allah tidak jemu sehinggalah kamu jemu. Amalan yang paling Allah sukai ialah amalan yang berterusan walaupun sedikit.”
(Riwayat al-Bukhari dan Muslim)
