When a big, positive change happens, it can crowd out even other positive things. Say you start a new job or move to your dream city. Even though these are positive changes, they may make it hard for you to continue the healthy habits you’ve formed. The new job’s schedule might disrupt your workout routine, or moving to a new city limits the amount of time you once spent with close friends.
This is okay! That’s life – but what’s important is that you don’t ignore it. Don’t let bad habits creep in to fill the cracks in your life. Take the time to rebuild the scaffolding, being intentional about how you adjust your life to accommodate the new exciting change. It can be overwhelming at first, but worth every second of investment.
