Bougie Girl University Presents: Life Is What You Make It- 5 Steps That You Can Take Right Now to Change Your Life...(Step Four:Making Consistency a Habit)

Week 4 –Making Consistency a Habit
  • It has been said that practice makes permanent. In other words, our daily habits help to shape our lives.
  • For  example, if you desperately want to get into shape but, every day you forego exercise in order to surf the Internet all day and night…
  • What are the chances that you are going to get back in shape? 
  • However, if you carved out 30 minutes in the morning to go on a stroll, you would create a new and healthier habit.  You would also get closer to your goal of getting into shape.   
  • The key to making consistency a habit is to build a solid foundation and to keep things simple whenever possible.
Assignment
  • List 3 of your healthiest habits.
  • How are you able to consistently institute them into your daily life?
  • List 3 of your not so healthy habits.
  • What is your plan for changing them?    
Main theme of the Week 4 lecture

  • Habits are the foundation of our daily lives.
  • Consistency is the key to permanently changing our habits.

BGU: Summer Hours

Daylight stretches long into the evening hours and you can find yourself stepping out of your workplace and right into an after work cocktail party. New people are buzzing around town. Perhaps, they are working on summer projects for their respective employers, working internships, and/or attending classes. Summer is also a great time for plotting the next career step or life transition. How will you be spending your summer hours? Will your summer be all about work or will you manage to sneak in a few weeks of leisurely travel? I am planning on working, spending time with friends and family, and working on our farm.

Week 3-Make Better Choices Making different choices requires that you hold yourself up to a higher standard of personal accountability…which can be exceedingly uncomfortable. For example, let’s say you are looking for ways to trim your monthly budget. Looking through your bank statements, you notice multiple charges for dining out expenses. Upon further self-reflection, you realize that you rarely stock your food pantry. Going forward, you hit the grocery store once a week to stock your house with food. As a result of making the choice to go grocery shopping on a regular basis, you have cut your expenses in half. Assignment List 3 things in your life that you would like to change.
