Shifting & creating new behavioural patterns

Creating new habits and shifting old behavioural patterns can seem daunting...


With consistent, small steps, you can achieve lasting change.
​
​This guide outlines simple, daily tasks to help you shift your behaviour, creating new and more positive patterns and choices.

1. Set Clear, Achievable Goals
​**Action step** Write down one specific, achievable goal you want to work on this week. Make sure it's clear and measurable.
​**Example** "I will exercise for 20 minutes, 3 times this week."
​
​2. Start with Small Changes
​**Action step** Identify one small change you can make today to move closer to your goal.
​**Example** If your goal is to eat healthier, start by adding one serving of vegetables to your dinner tonight.
​
​3. Create a Daily Routine
​**Action step** Plan a daily routine that includes your new behaviour. Consistency is key to habit (re) formation.
​**Example** If you want to read more, allocate 10 minutes of reading time each night before bed.

4. Track your progress

**Action step** Keep a journal or use an app to track your daily progress. Celebrate small wins and stay motivated.

**Example** Record your daily exercise in a fitness app and celebrate each week you meet your goal.

5. Surround yourself with support

**Action step** Share your goals with a friend or join a support group to stay accountable.

**Example** Tell a friend about your exercise goal and ask them to check in with you at the end of the week. 

6. Be kind to yourself

**Action step** Recognise and reflect that setbacks are part of the process. Instead of being hard on yourself, practice self-compassion and refocus on your goals.

**Example** If you miss a workout, remind yourself that it's okay to plan to get back on track tomorrow. 

By incorporating these small, simple tasks into your daily routine, you can gradually shift your behavioural patterns and create the lasting change you want. 

Remember, consistency and patience are key to building new habits. Keep going, and celebrate every step.
