3 Habits That Help You to Get Better Every day

We all need encouragement to keep going when life’s hard

A friend recently asked how I avoid setbacks. He’s been having a hard time motivating himself to keep up his routines recently.

Unless you’re a robot, you can relate to that challenge. Committing yourself to continuous self-improvement is hard. And it requires consistency.

• Learn more
• Or improve your career

Life can always get in the way. Just think about the last time you had to discontinue a routine because some life event came up. It’s not a matter of if but when.

Several months ago, I spent about six weeks in Spain. I’ve been going to different cities to see what the lifestyle is like because I plan to live there.

The first few weeks were quite distracting because I had to change my routines. I wanted to keep exercising, but the place where I stayed was quite far from a good gym.

So I adapted. I bought a TRX home-workout kit. Having that thing made exercising very easy for me. It went well and I maintained the routine even when I returned to The Netherlands, several weeks later.
