Establish New Habits with Practice of Repetion to achieve Resolutions

According to the article "Wired for Success" by Ray B. Williams published on December 27, 2010 on Psychology Today, almost 50% of the population makes resolutions for each New Year, but most of them fail to follow through the goals as the year progress.

Williams states that "Making resolutions work is essentially changing behaviors and in order to do that, you have to change your thinking and "rewire" your brain.  Brain scientists such as Antonio Damasio and Joseph LeDoux and psychotherapist Stephen Hayes have discovered, through the use of MRIs, that habitual behavior is created by thinking patterns that create neural pathways and memories, which become the default basis for your behavior when you're faced with a choice or decision. Trying to change that default thinking by "not trying to do it," in effect just strengthens it. Change requires creating new neural pathways from new thinking."

This apply to many aspects of your life.  You have to establish your mind setting to achieve any small and big goals. The well known motivational speaker, Brian Tracy, says "Habits of medium complexity  can be quite easily developed in 14-21 days through practice and repetition." in his article, "Seven Steps to Developing a New Habit." 

I am now in Day 4 of this practice, and it seems to be working well already. I can not start the morning without doing the little things that I have decided to do to improve myself.  Accumulative and continuous small actions seem to lead to a goal that you aim to achieve.
