Why is it so difficult to improve my health habits?

Not so fast! As psychologists, we see patients every day who are frustrated and sick, and getting sicker. They've been told to change their diet, relax, exercise, and stop smoking and drinking.

When they fail to make these necessary changes, they're told they lack motivation. People look everywhere for answers about how to change: the Internet, self-help books, magazines, and infomercials, but they can't find the solution. There are scientific answers to this problem.

Psychologists and others who study human behavior have known for decades what it takes to successfully change health habits. However, the answers they've come up with haven't been readily available to the people who need them -- or when the answers are available, they have been presented in ways that are difficult to understand and apply to daily life.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
