How To Overcome Your Resistance Towards Studying For Your ICAN Exams... by planetpgold(m): 4:59pm On Aug 02 |
Timothy Here Again, Why is it so hard to develop and maintain good habits? Because your brain will resist the change. To be fair, your brain certainly loves habits. Why? Because they’re a repetition of certain behaviors over time. The more you repeat them, the more your brain is used to them. Chances are that you’re already practicing many habits every day, even if you’re not aware of them. Scrolling through Tik Tok videos on your phone as soon as you wake up. Brushing your teeth from top to bottom, or left to right. Preparing the same type of breakfast each morning. Choosing your favorite spices to add to a meal. Also, that bad habit you have when you’re stressed — biting your nails, lighting a cigarette, taking a second beer out of the fridge, helping yourself to more potato chips, staying up half the night watching TV. All of those behaviors — whether you think they’re good or bad — are habits. When you start practicing a new habit you believe to be good for you, your brain resists. It's as if it’s telling you: Why are you getting up so early? We like it here in this warm bed! Why don’t you have another piece of cake? It tastes so good and you deserve it after working so hard this week. Why go to bed now? The couch feels comfortable and this show is really fun to watch! To overcompensate for this brain resistance, you come up with different ways to make your habit stick. You start to be extra hard on yourself by setting goals that are too unrealistic. And what happens next? You start the new habit and feel good about it for a while because motivation kicks in. But your brain is still stuck in its ways and that’s why you feel discomfort as you’re repeating the new behaviour. Sooner or later, your brain sends a signal — we’ve had enough! One morning you are not motivated to get up early and go for that run. You start berating yourself at first, then go back to your usual, comfortable routine of sleeping in. And the new habit disappears. Can you relate to the above when it boils down to your study and preparation for your exams? At the beginning of each diet, you will tell yourself that "This next diet, I will start early... Nothing is going to stop me", but at the end of the day, you will always find a billion excuses of self-imposed pity. Frankly, it is your habit; if you don't change it, it will continue. The question is what should you do? This is exactly what we will be looking at in the next post. Still, writing your Nov Diet? Get your Simplified and Comprehensive Lecture Videos plus Q&A.
