Valentine’s Day is the day of love, but it doesn’t just have to be shared with your significant other. The 14th of February is the perfect time to show so many important people you appreciate them.

Remember – good habits aren’t built overnight.

You need to stick with it. According to experts it takes anywhere from 18 to 254 days for people to form a new habit.

But don’t let this dishearten you – focus on each day.

If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed at the idea of keeping your News Year’s resolution (or new habit) for 254 days, or if you’ve run out of motivation to keep going, commit to 24 hours. It’s much easier to do something for 1 day than it is a whole week. Once you’ve completed 1 day, commit to another 24 hours and before you know it, you’ll have kept the habit for a whole week, and then a whole month.

Set achievable resolutions

One of the main reasons people struggle with keeping New Year’s resolutions is time, finding the time to do them, but …
