Would you ever wonder why some people succeed and make their dreams come true, while others fail? It is, without doubt, there is a lack or involvement of divine intervention but others succeed because they set goals and try their best to achieve those goals.

Arguably, one of the challenges that can discourage us and lower our confidence to succeed is bad habits.  A lot of people possess bad habits in their lives that stop them from becoming the person they want to be in their lives. Fortunately, there are things people can do to start changing their bad habits such as getting very specific and plan what they want to achieve.

In the way of changing your bad habits, you should specify a bad habit that you want to stop. For example, you shouldn't say you are going to start reading scriptures, but you should clarify how many times you should read per week, and how long you should spend reading the scriptures.

In April 2011 article entitled ''3 Proven ways to change a bad habits,” was published by the Ph.D. Heidi Grant Halvorson where he hinted at the point that caught the attention of many people. "it is much easier to stay motivated when we have a very specific endpoint in mind............" The sentence brings out the dangers of walking in dark without purpose or the need to change some misbehaving.

A changer must also, accept the fact that It's going to be hard to change and sometimes we enjoy seeing the end picture in our journey.

Studies show that the people who are willing to achieve a goal, embrace the reality that it is going to be hard but persist end up becoming winners.

One person has once said that bad habits are like a comfortable bed, easy to get into but hard to get out of it. While you want to change bad habits, it is better to embrace the reality that it is going to be hard to come out of it.

You should have a plan of what you should do when you get tired during the process. It is normally known how easy things get when you have a plan for everything. It directs you like a map to reach your goal therefore while one wants to change better must prepare.

Last year, I wanted to quit taking alcohol, and I knew that my weakness to fail during the process will be my friends who drink. I planned to be far from them and in case I found myself, asking to drink I would tell myself that I am taking some medicine that would not allow me to take alcohol.

Since then up to now, I have managed to quit alcohol. Having solutions to the challenges that you will face during the process of stopping your bad habit will help you to win the bad habit that has colonized you.

To sum up, you will be able to change your bad habit by specifying the exact way you want to change, embrace the fact that it is going to be hard for you and have a plan of what you will do during the process once you get tired. These Three processes have been proven scientifically, and as they have worked for the others, they will work for you as well.
