“Your beliefs become your thoughts, 

Your thoughts become your words, 

Your words become your actions, 

Your actions become your habits, 

Your habits become your values, 

Your values become your destiny.” 

― Mahatma Gandhi

 

 

Project 365, Day 90! My last check in was on day 39, which either means I’ve been very busy or else I’m slacking with my blogging. Let’s go with VERY BUSY.  If you’ve been following me on Instagram or Facebook, you know that I’ve impressed even myself by posting a photo every.single.day for the last 89 days. I’m a quarter of the way through my 365 project!

 

They say, on average, it takes 66 days for a habit to take hold. So at day 90, does it feel like a habit? The short answer is “sort of.” Those same folks that say it takes 66 days to form a habit also say it can take up to 8 months for a complicated habit to take hold. Who are “they” anyway? The actual definition of a habit is: a behavior pattern acquired by frequent repetition or physiologic exposure that shows itself in regularity or increased facility of performance; an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly or completely involuntary. 

 

So, not quite involuntary, but this photo challenge has absolutely become a part of my daily routine.  It also so happens that today is Day 30 of my Whole30 challenge. That might be another blog post altogether, but it definitely fits in with establishing new and healthy habits. Let me know if you’d like to hear more about it.

 

Are we Instagram buddies?  We should be! C'mon over and visit me there and see how long I last with my 365 Project!  You can find me HERE! Thanks for taking this journey with me!

 

 

Let me know if YOU are doing a Project 365 or Project 52 this year. I'd love to follow your journey!

 

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.

― Aristotle
