It’s all about the little things.
BY NOW, WE’RE BLASTING THROUGH 2019, which means that all of our most cherished goals – to eat better, to lose weight, to get jacked, and to make a better (and healthier) desk lunch – are being put to the test. Research shows that 80 per cent of New Year’s resolutions fail by the second week of February, but if yours have taken a knock, take heart: We’ve got the reserve list ready, in the form of six little habits to restore your momentum. ‘If you think about your everyday life, you’re likely consistent about a lot of things and don’t even realise it,’ says Jason Wersland, D.C., creator of the Theragun. ‘Once you turn something that takes five minutes into a habit, you realise that it’s not as tough as you thought to be a little healthier.’ That isn’t a euphemism, either: Each of these tweaks requires less than five minutes of your time to implement. Feel free to spend the rest of the year thanking us.
