Thanks for the great insights! I have managed to incorporate a few positive habits into my life recently, but maybe they were using up most of my will-power. Perhaps I need to be a bit more patient and take things one at a time.
One thing that Leo mentioned in a video that I watched recently (which he got from Eben Pagan, I believe) was to use what limited will power you do have each day, to try and make changes in your environment for the better, to set you up for future success. (Or something along those lines). So I have been trying to do this a little bit too.
I'll definitely go back and watch the recommended videos and really like the idea of using these mundane tasks as an opportunity to practice mindfulness! Thanks a lot!
