How To Make Habits LAST!



How To Make Habits LAST

Normally, I would take this time to give you a real estate update video. However, I’m here with Jay Papasan of Keller, Inc., the author of one of my two favorite books and one of the best-selling real estate authors of all time. My colleague, Bob Sokoler, had a chance to interview Jay and I included an excerpt from it below.

A fellow speaker at the event, Jay Papasan, is a contributor and co-author of the book The One Thing. The book details the dangers of multitasking and also how to create habits that last. “We really dug into that research,” Jay stated, “Our big surprise was that it doesn’t take 21 days to form a habit, which is what all the books used to say, it takes 66.” Jay was able to obtain this research from an Australian study that made graduate students form a health habit over a year.

“What they found is that after an average of 66 days, not 21, the habit formed and it got as easy as it’s going to get. If you were waking up early to go to the gym, you got up before the alarm clock,” he continued. Jay recommends picking a New Year’s resolution, and sticking to it until it almost becomes second nature and then moving on to your next goal.
