My final update:
I successfully pushed my natural wake up time to be 2hours earlier! This was a challenging process but I found learning about behaviour change to be really interesting.

#mark320 Weekends are usually my sleep in days but I’m starting to change that habit! ☀️

@terrimilani Congrats!! You killed it!

This article says that one of the biggest influences for success is managing setbacks. It’s normal to feel self-critical and discomfort when you commit to something and don’t follow through. Reflection, compassion and problem solving is key!

#mark320 Update! This week has been and bit up and down with my behaviour change but I’m still determined to work on it! 😊

The article also recommends to:
1. Choose one habit & do it well.
2. Write down your plan.
3. Make your goal public & use your support system.
4. Make a plan for when your falter.

After struggling with my sleep routine behaviour change lately, I tried to find some research that would help. I found that 8 times out of 10 you are more likely to fall back on old habits. So if you’re own track you’re really beating the odds! (1/2)

After learning more about the ‘Stages of Change Theory’ I’ve realised I keep trying to rush into the action stage straight away, without any preparation. I’m going to focus over the next few days on setting myself up for success the night before!!

@yuka110305 That’a great!! ☺️

#Mark320 I’ve been chugging SO MUCH water non stop the last week and haven’t noticed many benefits (just excessive peeing 😅). I’m considering swapping my behaviour change to waking up earlier, something I’ve struggled with lately, how’s everyone else going on their journey?

[_alinahager @alinahager]

@terrimilani Amazing advice, thank you ☺️❤️

[_alinahager @alinahager]

#mark320 Been struggling the last few days and finding it hard to motivate myself to get out of bed when I have no commitments or reasons. Instead of pushing myself I’m going to try increase my alarm 20mins earlier each morning this week! Wish me luck ☺️

@emmajdono Killing it!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@sineaddaly_1 The sunrise was so pretty! Definitely made it worth it ☺️

Yesterday morning was so great! I watched the sunrise and went for a swim (which was so icy) but today I had nothing on so I’ve slept in pretty late, consistency is hard 😅

[_alinahager @alinahager]

#mark320 A little annoyed at myself for sleeping in this morning, but I guess ups and downs are normal, determined to do better tomorrow!!

[_alinahager @alinahager]

@sophiemorrris_ Yayy, you go girl!

[_alinahager @alinahager]

@terrimilani I finally understand your love for winter swims! Such a good feeling!!

[_alinahager @alinahager]
