Healthy work habits? Check out these tips.

3 tips for creating and maintaining a healthy work routine.

Summer is really coming to an end and with it comes the fresh start of September. Therefore, the GoodHabitz portal shared tips on "turning personal ambitions of September into lasting habits".

This is because "achieving long-term goals can be difficult". "With advances in psychology and neuroscience, it is possible to understand the difficulty of maintaining good habits and to perceive the way challenges are overcome," can be read in Notícias ao Minuto, citing the company specialized in corporate e-learning.

These are the three tips released by GoodHabitz.

• Unmasking clichés: "There is no universal moment to form a new habit, it can take between 18 and 254 days and depends a lot on the person. However, in order to achieve the goals more clearly and effectively, it is necessary to make a concrete and specific choice of the resolutions desired, considering that in terms of progress, it is better to take smaller and imperfect steps than to stand still".

• Follow the habit cycle: "The four laws of change can be a guide to start creating new habits. The first law is about making the habit clear and perceptible. The second law is based on making the habit as attractive as possible. The third law is to make the habit easier, in this case, start taking small steps. The last law is to make the habit satisfying".

• Stimulate willpower: "Ensuring that there are no temptations around and having the ability to concentrate on a new habit is essential. Procrastination is a great enemy that can end with some efforts already made and prevents progress from existing and being desired. In order for this not to happen, it is essential to keep personal motivation alive and not stop the routine, which will help combat boredom".

The Marketing Manager of GoodHabitz, Raquel Gaspar, emphasizes that "September is indeed a perfect month to embrace new goals, however, it is necessary to have a lot of persistence, in order to turn good intentions into lasting habits," it also reads.
